    Bad back and carrying 25L contaners-Options?

    So last weekend I tried my solution which seems to work. Friday evening, Bring 120 litre barrel into through room at opposite end to tank. Fill with RO through slightly open window. Remineralize with tap and bring to temp. On Saturday I drain water from tank via the extra outlet on FX4. Run...

    Bad back and carrying 25L contaners-Options?

    I bought 2 of the 120L- more than I need- but can have one in garage full in case of emergencies- like I end up in pub.

    Bad back and carrying 25L contaners-Options?

    It turns out a booster pump doesn't help much! save 40 seconds a litre- whoopee doo! They look ideal! It would only have to be in my living room Friday night, just refill Fridays before water change.

    I need to pick up a nice big storage container somewhere- they seem to cost a fortune new!

    I have a tap adapter on order so hopefully can do it indoors. Unfortunately now have a combi boiler so no storage upstairs, bu got me thinking about installing the RO unit next to boiler!

    I'm assuming the booster purely boosts pressure and not temperature?

    Bad back and carrying 25L contaners-Options?

    I make my RO in the garden at present from a garden tap. I 'make' around a 100L. Storing upstairs won't get past Mrs C. It take around 3-4 hours I guess. A large container at height is something I've been thinking about but space again is an issue.

    Bad back and carrying 25L contaners-Options?

    I think I'm going to try pumping with RO straight in. The issue is I have a 2 hour window on Saturdays to get the job done, so if the booster pump does the job it will save a lot of lifting! I use about 30% tap so can use that to adjust temp if it goes to out of kilter.

    My house is too small and full of family junk, I have bought and tried a trolley,a bit of an assault course!

    Your first point would be my plan B. I.e fill containers adjacent to tank to save carrying. Issue would be the time it takes to refill. However I have a booster pump on order. Your point 2 is what I was doing before I started using RO.

    It would take at least that. If I'm cutting with tap could use that to balance temp.

    Bad back and carrying 25L contaners-Options?

    I have recently shifted over to using RO cut with tap water. I fill 25l containers and pump in tank using the inlet on my FX4. I have a bad back and carrying the 25l containers is crippling me. I have seen the chap in Green Aqua using a booster pump to feed the RO straight into tank. But if I'm...

    CO2 And filter recommendations

    I have a 200l aquarium and use the FX4. Thought it may have been a bit fierce, but no issues. I have replaced media with that from Pond Guru All seems good.
