Re: DIY Water Deionizing System
I would gladly pay that guy 150 to build it for me and send it to me! Looks easy, but I'm sure there are a few small things he left out.Fergy-

Re: DIY Water Deionizing System
I service electric lift trucks for a living. We use DI water in the batteries. You can buy a wall mountable DI filter with hose connections on both ends for about $150. They are roughly 6 inches in diameter and 24 inches tall and will treat a few thousand gallons before wearing out. Not sure if this is really cost effective for rinsing cars but no fabrication needed. Philadelphia Scientific is one manufacturer.Comment

Re: DIY Water Deionizing System
Where I live we have a hardness of 8. I do not exactly know how high the scale goes but i know it made a huge difference when we install our water softner. From what I understand the softener isn't the same as the DI.Fergy-

You found it, you build it.
ColinA common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.

Re: DIY Water Deionizing System
Looks like a nice, simple system. Prices I'm seeing are $265 for the unit; $95 for the replacement filter (YIKES). For $150, I'd buy one!Originally posted by Rcktsled View Post
