About to order from Race Glace a 0ppm Filter.
I have two cars - washing about once a month.
What size would suit my needs?
Thanks.

The smallest. If you're thinking that they're portable they're really not for home cleaning.

I use the small one in the garage plumbed in to a Y splitter so I can flip to mains or bypass through the filter. Depends on use but I eeked one out to a couple of years.


The only difference is the cost and frequency of changing the resin.

Think mine is a 7L and it is manageable to move around when doing the house windows.
I'm thinking of setting it up permanently in the garage though as previously mentioned so you can easily switch over for the final rinse.

You get roughly 750l out of an 11l vessel @350ppm but they do go on longer but water marks will start to show.
You tend to get a fishy smell from the resin when it becomes depleted..

With whole home water softeners, the resin is "recharged" by a saline wash, is this possible on one of these units?
