Built this little doo dah. Hydrologic stealth 200 RO into a 65 gal leg tank. Takes about half a day to fill, but can completely wash (pre rinse, soap, rinse) 2 crew cab trucks. Between this and the foam cannon/chemical guys Mr. Pink, it's made a world of difference. Even the plastics look better, without putting shine on them. I'm in it for less than $300, but had the steel and tank sitting around.

Geez.... 200gal RO is a rough 3:1 ratio. So to net those 200 low tds/stripped gals, you wasted essentially 400gals.

Assuming your on municipalities, then again could be well being Magnolia...?

You can run it 2:1 if desired.

at 2:1 TDS should be well below 10% of incoming water. spots are almost non existent at TDS below 50 . if incoming is 300 , and TDS is less than 30 , you can actually go to a higher production membrane , and make good water faster.

That's neat and all, but I'll just give Julio 20 bucks.

Id agree, that's purified bottled water at <10! Hell ozarka water tests at 20ish.
