Hi the water in my area has TDS up to 310 would i be able to use a Di tank only or should i go for a 4 stage filter system for pure water would only be useing it about 5 hours a week
Hey 176…
I’m Dange welcome to the forum, I live in Seattle area of western Washington USA and our TDS is @ 40.
All I need to use is the single mixed bed DI tank with a Micron filter and a charcoal filter ! I also lived in SoCal which has a high TDS
@ 250 to 300. All I used there was a single mix bed also ! This was before I became acquainted with the RO system !
I’ve gained a lot more info about this sort of stuff here from many members ! @ 5 hours a week you might do just fine with just the 1 tank and micron / charcoal filters.
The Ettore Aquaclean EZ Pure RO/DI seems like pretty good system ! Now if you were going to do way more hours, I think that I just might go with a RO system, the kind that RHG Products promotes here ! I’ve never used an RO system so I’m pretty much uneducated with this but if your doing 40 hour weeks with the WFP, getting the most from a system would be the best SOP…
I know there’s areas with mucho high TDS, I’m glad that I’m blessed here in the Pacific Northwest ! It sounds like you need to reserch this and check out as much as you can on the forum here !
Also calling Shawn Gavin @ RHG products can help with information, also calling Chris or Alex will also provide good info…
Get all your ducks in a row then move down the path that works for you ! Good luck to you 176, and again welcome to the community .

At a Tds of 310 you will want a ro/di for sure. You’ll save money in short order.
I agree w/ Micah. That tds is pretty high. I’d suggest an EZ Pure RO/DI to get started fairly economically.

In the long run you will spend much more money making pure water with a DI tank. Look at it this way, it cost around 8 to 10 cents a gallon to produce pure water with a DI system and 3 cents a gallon with a RO system. This is the lowest price and lightest RO system on the market. It has a 4 inch by 40 inch membrane

In my opinion you could get by with a DI system using it only 5 hours a week but your business is going to grow and then you’ll need to upgrade. I say upgrade your decision now. Five hours sounds like about $500 a week. I bet you can afford a RO/DI system. Buy the EZ Pure or HydroTube now and you’ll save the money you would have spent/wasted on a DI system.
Thanks for the replys looks like im getting a 4 stage filter system. i like the look of the aquaclean EZ Pure RO/DI but cant find a suppler here in australia
so iv b looking at the IONIC Quattro unit its a lot like the aquaclean EZ Pure RO/DI If you want to have a look ther web site is Ionic Systems Austrlia Pty Ltd There seems to b no info about them on WCR
If You have one love to here what you think about them
Just whish they would hurry and finnish building the $24 billion desalination plant still 2 years till they fiinsh it but should give us a lot lower TDS and its right next door to me almost

Hello,
The EZ Pure system is sold via Ettore distributors world wide.
Please send me an email at [email protected] and I can get you in touch with one.
The Ionic Quatro is kinda pricey!

My RHG RO/DI cart gets good use 5 days a week, the cartridges last forever!..well not really, but 2-3 years with 400 tds.
Pushing drinking water systems? I dont get it.
