SR-Elite RO/DI 1:1 Ratio Extremely Efficient
The SR-Elite RO/DI is our new system that will have the same features and quality as all of our systems. We have matched the Waste Water with the Pure Water Production producing a 1:1 ratio (water temp may affect production slightly by 0.5 gpd. System will include a TDS meter to monitor the filters, Flush kit to help with the membranes longevity, the highest quality filters will be installed, NFS cert filters, Medical Grage Colour Changing DI Media, Booster pump with pressure switch (allowing the system to be installed in low pressure situations), Auto Shut Off to stop the unit when the water isn't being used! Lastly a 3 Year Warranty.
System will come in either a 4 stage or 5 stage model with any one of these flow rates 75 GPD, 100 GPD,150 GPD, 200 GPD models. Pricing is still being finalized but will be ready within 24 hours! We are very excited about this unit and so should U :clap: |
Pricing goes as followed... I will price the base unit of the SR-Elite and any extras u can add. This way the base price for a basic RO/DI is cheaper.
SR-Elite 100 GPD 1 Clean : 1 Waste $198
SR-Elite 150 GPD 1 Clean : 1 Waste $249
|
These sound great! Are these the set prices or introductory prices?

Well u have no idea how excited i am :woohoo: the rest of the parts i ordered for the SR-Elite system arrived today...... I will build a unit to make a promo video for everyone to see! Looks like prices might change in a good way :pompom: for you!!!!
Our basic system will be any flow rate you want, will be the basic 4 stage system RO/DI with colour changing DI, Flush-kit installed... 1:1 clean to waste ratio....Will operate in low pressure applications also... Our system you'll be able to add auto shut offs, TDS meters, Auto Flush systems with booster pumps.... WE WILL BE TAKING PRE-ORDERS IN LESS THEN 1 WEEK!!!!!!! SAVE MONEY NOW FOR THIS SYSTEM!!! |
Its time get your orders in now and Save Roughly $80 https://store-028a0.mybigcommerce.co...s/sr-elite.jpg |
Just wanted to let people know I installed this system last weekend and it works great. It reduces my TDS from 280 down to 3 after the RO and 0 after the DI. The waste ratio appears to be petty close to 1:1 although I haven't measured it just yet but definitely very close. Auto flush kit works great and is a nice option. Overall very happy with the unit so far and would recommend to others.

any pictures of the system?

:biggrin: ----> taggin along.

I ordered one of these too. Filled my reservoir faster than I expected (tri-annual floor cleaning :wink:). Easy to set up (plug and play) and I'm very happy aboout the 1:1 ratio instead of the 1:4 or 1:5 on my old unit :biggrin:
|
My unit has the same stages currently. What can I do to make my current one 1:1? Is the magic in the membrane?
|
What brand are the RO membranes? Is membrane life expectancy of the RO membrane reduced from the achievement of 1:1 ratio in comparison to say a typical Filmtec membrane? What about this system makes it produce 1:1? Can I retrofit my AquaFX system?
Btw, clicking on that banner doesn't link properly. |
Yes, retrofit would be good

Interested in a retro as well. Would the membrane fit into a regular ro housing (ideally the housing used by AquasafeCanada)?
|
BWI, what's the scoop? Any answers for our questions? :)
|
what is the magic? Do you sell retrofit?
|
I find it funny that BWI will not respond to there claim on how to make it 1:1.
I understand it's there product and they don't want people to copy them, but if you want people to purchase these units (I would be one of them) then you need to tell us how you are getting 1:1. What is the science behind it? We could all make our units 1:1 but we would just need to change the membrane 4x faster. PLEASE GIVE US SOME INFO! |

I should have the kit complete by the days end! |

The membrane will last the same amount of time your standard units will or longer because of the auto flush kit.... The auto flush kit will flush the membrane right at start up for 30-40 sec which will also prevent TDS creep, and periodically will flush the membrane when the units running! |

Looking forward to seeing this retrofit kit. I purchased one of your SR-1 systems a couple of years ago and the membrane's still working great.

I use a flush kit on my current system, and I use it on every start up as well as flushing after every use. I doubt that standard home water pressure is good enough to flush the membrane very well, but I do it anyway. :lol: |
how much for the retrofit and 2 150gpd membrane?
|
Quote:
If you have enough water pressure to make RO water you have enough to flush :wink: Steve |

I think you're right about the membrane. I flush my membrane a few times mid-use too, and always make sure that my storage barrel is almost empty so I make 50 gallons at a time since the membrane will last longer than frequent, short uses. |

I have 65 psi when a 150 gpd flow restrictor is used. If flow is completely blocked there is a little under 70 psi. When water bypasses the flow restrictor through the 1/4" tubing the pressure gauge only reads around 30 psi. Less resistance, less pressure. Yours is probably similar. :)
|
It is normal for the system pressure to drop when you flush the membrane. You are releasing the back pressure on the system....its like opening a faucet....the pressure on the line drops.
|
Yah mahn. It will stay at 30 psi indefinitely though.
|
Turn the flush on....pressure drop...turn the flush off and pressure back up or no? Can you clarify?
|
Yep. If I turn the flush on for 15 minutes the pressure doesn't go up at all, 30 psi is all I get with the flush going. Isn't that typical? That's what I have always seen in residential applications.
|
Yes that is normal. Turning the flush on releases the back pressure on the membrane.

I do think your drop through a 1/4" line is a little large. befor my pump in my old house I would get about a 3 PSI drop, not 35 PSI, but I guess that could have to do in how you are supplying the water and where the PSI is measured. Steve |
Sorry to Hijack this post but has anybody else been waiting on their 150gpd 1:1 unit from BWI? My order was placed May 18th still waiting. Just wondering if I'm the only one.

Also people should note these units do not apparently include an auto shut off so you'll either have to add one or manually turn the water supply on or off (a float switch won't shut it off). I see he's noted this in the thread now but the website is misleading as it states it's included. I managed to get a shut off added after I already received my unit but I'm still waiting for it, took over two weeks for him to ship it out after being promised next day and again I had to follow up to even get it out then. Overall like the product, hate the service. Will not be a repeat customer. Look around there are plenty other 1:1 units available and even 2:1 (2 good, 1 waste) units available, not as cheap but at least they actually do include everything you need. |

hmm i haven't received my auto shutoff yet either. he did say he was shipping it out the next day after we talked sphelps :neutral: |
