Anyone use one of these to filtrate there water?
-
No, requires a lot of effort for what you get, but better than dying of thirst. Are you intending to use one. :question:
-
was there meant to be a link here,what type of water you trying to filter and how much
-
Coral Bay Caravan Park in WA runs reverse osmosis. They suck up water from a bore which is over a mile deep and need to run it thru the rev osmosis system before running it thru the parks water system. Give them a ring and they should be able to give you all the ins and outs of the system

Yes, I have used one before. That is the way that warships get their fresh water. Better quality than what you get in the town systems IMO. But, and it is a big but, the Navy's system wasn't cheap to install, run or maintain.
It turned sea water into fresh water, depending on the ship I was on, made the difference between having a good supply or limited supply. But this was more to do with storage of the water. Oliver Hazard Perry Class FFGs could only store 25 tonnes of water, with a crew of around 220 (during peak operations), whereas the Anzac Class FFH could store 40 tonnes with a max crew of 180. More storage, less people, less water stress.

thanks all, i am going to try a small unit just to filtrate drinking water, to eliminate flu ride & the the rest. see how it goes, not on the scale of the navy :)
cheers

We use one of these from Kmart which works a lot better than these reviews! 3 x replacement filters only cost $18 and they last 3 months each :goodjob:
