    pH at 7.75, Low alkalinity, Low Calcium, High Salinity

    I am compelled to clarify because I believe you are confusing specific gravity (SG) with parts per thousand (PPT) and am not sure if you actually have calibrated your refractometer. A number of the refractometers we use have both scales. We want to target SG of around 1.026, while equals...

    He has a water problem!!

    I'm wondering if that pipe isn't DWV that he is using under pressure. It sure sounds that way. EDIT TO ADD: I also just looked up a picture of his filter room: National code for bracing PVC pipe is every four feet. By eye, it looks like that is what he has. However, whenever I've run...

    RO Booster pump question

    That simple bracket was made with scrap plywood I had lying around. You need a place to put the voltage supply, and I also had to mount it to the concrete wall in the basement. This bracket just made that simple to do. No timer for me. My typical water making day is starting the pump...

    RO Booster pump question

    I have the 8800 pump. I haven't touched the pressure settings....one reason is that I have an old RO unit with no pressure guages. But it is my understanding that it can be adjusted by turning a little screw on the top of the unit. I will tell you that it made a tremendous improvement in...

    Baking-baking soda?

    Dan, Earl's got the link. If you have any questions, please post. One error in that link is the very first post where I state, "One last point; if you have high pH, you don’t need to cook the baking soda. Simply mix 2 ¼ cups baking soda to one gallon of RO/DI water." This is not true, it...

    My new large addition....

    Is that one tank in the first picture sitting on the hearth of a fireplace? I have one tank (OK, two...a small nano as well), and the moisture problems I have in my house are killing me. I've got to believe your house is a sauna.

    That's just fine. But what is holding it up so it doesn't fall into the tank?

    The minimum is enough to wet the glass frit bulb. But here's the important point, you never ever want to totally submerse the probe past the top of the glass portion. It will immediately ruin the probe. I have mine in a probe bulkhead to make sure the top never gets wet. Here it is new...

    PAR from sunlight through window?

    I'm going to assume you have low e glass. Low e cuts about 5 to 10 percent of visible light while taking both UV and IR down to very very low levels. If you look at photosynthetic response cuvres, only a smig of of UV and IR are included. Accordingly I would guess that PAR is...

    Game Changer Crossflow Water Movement Device Coming out from Maxspect.

    Ouch! That hurts. Did I understand that correctly in one of the reviews that you get extra "cages?" Maybe that is the reason.

    Ed, Marketing 101....first to market with a unique product, and supply and demand....you blow your margins out the door. So they cut their margins, but guarantee they are still seeing decent profits, even below 299. You can also bet your bippy that Maxspect has goosed their margins with...
