The new membrane gives me about 40% more output now, and I flush it once a week, minimum. I should have taken a pic of it...

I heard from Japarto... Enough to convince me to upgrade my unit to the vertex deluxe model... It flushes automatically at start and every two hrs and a bit...

I do have the booster pump, but than again, that might gust press the sludge even more in it.

at this time I dont have a valve, so I might have to put one in, we se

Kevin, I have a spare back flushing valve available now that I've upgraded...
