i will get to this i have spent a fortune on upgrading my system i have had to buy two pumps to boost the pressure so im not about to let this go to waste

what i can say to you is you do need at least a 6 stage prefilter hence the two pumps only one oif which is sediment the next 5 are carbon block before entry into the membranes which are plumbed in parallel for efficiency as we are recyling all water and its pond water being processed anyway we can afford to go this route

the restrictor has been done away with instead a tap is employed

you may say why so many carbon blocks being as no chlorine is present the answer is ORGANICS these will kill a membrane faster than chlorine

stay with it i have it all ready to go its just not hoigh im my list rigth now
