But the ones with the bypass get a whole lot more is that right?
@imjoshv
@imjoshv Ай бұрын
They still produce the same amount of spot free water, but you can make them last longer because you can use the bypass to use regular water for parts of your car wash and then switch to filtered water for your final rinse. If there is no bypass your using the filters the whole time. So even though the filters will produce the same amount of spot free water, you will be able to get more car wash's out of it because you control when you use it

The carbon filter is actually a good addition. It doesn't remove any desolved solids, but it does pull the chlorine out. Chlorine will eat up your resin and shorten the life. I've been running an inline RV carbon filter just to try and preserve the resin. I have high chlorine and around 500ppm of TDS. The resin be struggle'n in my garage.

I run the water drop Di system with the internal bypass and love it. It has one valve and a robust stainless steel by pass pipe. On initial hook up no leaks. I did add a carbon filter to prolong the life of the resin cartridges and overall love the performance of the system. The quality of the water drop DI system is stout. Highly recommend this set up.

Keav has a good youtube on carbon filter in front of the resin and how it extends the life of the resin. I bought a $400 Envig carshine 817 includes 2.6 gpm flow, bypass, tds, stainless etc and put a charcoal filter in front. It's incredible but not wall mountable but super cheap/easy resin replacement.

Josh..the Carbon filter is for saving your DI resin which hates chlorine..want your di resin to last even longer Get a RO filter..flow is reduced so that's why you don't see it in most applications but a holding tank would fix that issue but much cheaper Di water setup longer term..
@Calihan
@Calihan Ай бұрын
So carbon first, into an ro filter into a holding tank, then into the spotless. The holding tank needs to send water too tho, so unless it's really gravity fed are you using a pump on that or is the reduced flow when the water is actually moving enough to do that?
@dscarsella1
@dscarsella1 Ай бұрын
@Calihan so there are many routes to get to a solution but the cheapest way would be source water to carbon filter to RO to holding tank with a Hudson float valve...then ideally you'd have a pressure washing capable of pulling it's own water so typically a bit higher end machines ar630, kranzle, active 2.0 and above....when you add RO to the system it drops water supply below what you would want to holding tank solves that issue...now your DI resin lasts a year instead of a month

I live down here in rosirito and my ppm is around 650 to as high as 720... I use the griot's single tank mixed bed deionizer. It recommends 13lbs of resin. My first round only lasted for 3 final rinses before it was already at 20ppm. So I added 2 more pounds of resin to the tank and the next round got me 20 final rinses before it went to 20ppm. Hard to believe that little bit of resin makes that much difference but it does I'm on my 6th round and the results are very consistent. So there is a tip to all you DIY people like me..

The water Inlet for the pressure washer is on the left so it would be nice if the outlet for for the filters was on the left as well. The water source I just ran a hose from to the inlet on the filters.. it’s really not too big of a deal just wanted to mention everything I noticed

Josh no one is providing more useful content than you. Keep em coming! However I agree with the original comment here. If the water outlet was on the opposite wall, you could have run the source into the filters on the left, and instead of stacking the pressure washer above it, simply install it directly to the right and eliminate the excess pex piping. Not a big deal. It would just all depend on the individual’s situation.

From watching Keav's channel, the CR spotless bypass is a bad afterthought that barely puts out the minimum amount of flow. It's a 3/8 tube if i recall correctly. I have also not had an issue with my BigBoi pro, but its nowhere near the output they claim. Im getting about 2gpm at about 950 psi, but the amp draw is insanely low.

12ppm??? Wow that’s incredible. Supposedly anything up to about 20 is still spot free. So if that’s the case you should t need anything. If you want it to be 0ppm you could still use a system like this and it will last you a looong time since your water quality is still very good
