You didn`t answer my question did you,you have a vanmount RO system you fill from a tap and your water goes in tank at anything from 2-15 after RO,it then goes through resin vessel after RO so what are you saying your making water at home and then transfering it into the tank.

[Dave Turley]

So does it goes through resin and then into the tank making water 000 in tank,or does it goes through resin last and then hosereel.If it goes through resin and then into tank they set that system up a bit weird didn`t they.

I just bought it to compliment my van mount, but am enjoying its benefits. It is by NO means a true alternative to a van mount though ( just my opinion ). It takes about 3 mins to fill up with pure water straight from the di vessel. I have been filling it up while I take the bill to the customer and having it filling up outside the van, Luke

why is it weird ? having a tank full of 000 and why would I want it di to hose thats asking for trouble if it goes up.

You want the water to go through the resin last before it goes down the hosereel and up the pole really,i wouldn`t want pure water in the tank without it going through resin at the last second.They don`t normally set there systems up like that,yours in the pictures you posted looks like a conventional RO system and by that i mean you have a resin vessell for the final polish.

Ok so heres some pictures I just took now:

the backpack itself:


tap on backpack always left open and backpack switched on and other tap used on hip holster to control flow


on/off switch on the side unlike the shurflo ( under )


the handle, and all together it weighs hardly nothing even with the water

[Jeff Brimble]

I would guess at 15Lbs, thought it looked ok. Can you service/maintain it  it yourself ? ie change pumps, batteries etc.

Why ?

I test my water every day, allways 000


Jeff,

for the price he paid if it lasted a year it would pay for itself many times over

[Captain Scarlet]

Jeff there are no spare parts available for this backpack, something which the Window Cleaning Warehouse made clear before I bought it. But at only £80 odd quid.......Luke

[Nathanael Jones]

I got one of these,... and after seeing your pics Luke, I can tell you it's IDENTICAL!!!! £61 delivered,... just cut off the wand and fit a female minibore quick connect.

[Alex Wingrove]

why do you have two taps?

[[GQC] Tim]

Okay, I'm really liking this thing, (mainly for the price).

Luke, what differences are there between this and the ShurFlo? Can you adjust the flow of water?

ive got one of these b/ps off ebay and it works ok, i only want it for the occassional hard to access job, the pumps abit noisey though,just fit a flow valve and you can adjust it as you want, or have 2 flow valves and have one as a fixed flow regulator and the other as an on/off

[Captain Scarlet]

why do you have two taps?

the first tap running from the backpack is always left open but stops the water flow until connected to a connecter thus meaning I dont have to switch the backpack off. Then the other tap is on my hip so I can control the flow.

Luke, what differences are there between this and the ShurFlo? Can you adjust the flow of water?

Mainly the price and according to the Window Cleaning Warehouse thy get far less complaints about these compared to their shurflo ones. But its early days so I cannot comment on its reliability. But I can tell you that straight from the box WITHOUT being charged it ran for 2 complete days, Luke
