water
« on: July 19, 2008, 07:35:32 pm »
I have been filling up my IBC tank through a booster pump now for a couple of mth and decided to try and see what would happen if i fill the other tank up with the water I have already put through the ro

I was getting the water in the tank 30 on the TDS for some unknown reason, so with that water I pumped it back through the ro at 100 psi and now I'm getting the water coming out at 2 on the TDS  ;D

That will save me some money on my resin now..

so you fill tank 30 and back through again down to that low how much is the waste doing this ?

I am guessing your not on a meter, you do have 2 di vessals dont you ?

So you are wasting 2 lots of water,that means you will be producing less product water  :-\
i`d stick with your 30tds or see into a better RO ;)

You can adjust the waste and pure ratio with a 4040  ;)

if your not on a meter then fair play doing it that way,

I have a 4040 I am on a meter, I have a softener vessal before pump and get down to 9tds then have 2 di vessals as it saves on resin.

you dont get pure out of RO, I can change waste output yes just turn a tap and the filtered water then goes in di's

Once the water has gone through the RO and is in the tank on the right I then pump the water back through the RO and fill the tank up on the left

sry 0nly playing, yes you can turn down the waste on the 4040 I have.

Highrise I would add another di vessal to your set up, you will save quite a bit of resin m8

The resin is in the van and on the static tank the blue vessal is the softner

I know how to do the salt but since putting the booster pump on it has for some reason put my TDS levels up????

The reason for the booster pump was and is the fill the tank up quicker.....

I thought the booster pump was to help the RO and thus give me a lower tds which it has not...

So their for I am now having to do it this way....
