Merlin in soft water
« on: April 08, 2008, 08:39:15 pm »
Hi ALL
          I live in a soft water area, since i invested in merlin i have saved a lot of money on resin. I have now been on the same vessil of resin for the last 13 momths and the water is still pure, all i have changed is the pre filter £20  thats all i`ve spent since i `ve got merlin. Anyone else doing this. I give merlin 10 out off 10

Merlins are great in high pressure/low TDS areas - anything where else they can be next to useless!

Mine delivers about 40 - 45 litres per hour of pure water and the pressure is just under the recommended 40 PSI.  Not massive production but fine for a one man operation.  Seems to be quite a bit of waste though but it's not metered.

Get a second tank to collect the waste water and then use a booster pump to "recycle" it through the Merlin until the waste TDS starts to get about 300 - 400. Saves on resin and saves water. 650L per day of pure used with less than 40L of waste.
