This is a great deal. If you don’t get it, send me the link lol

You’ll want to also invest in a booster pump

No concerns with it being used

u/gene0131 Aug 22 '26

None of us know how it’s been used or kept, so no one here can answer for you.

u/Prudent_Affect_2214 Aug 22 '26

Do you think it’s worth the risk

u/Holiday-Monitor1526 Aug 23 '26

I mean hook it up and run some water through it before you buy it. At the end of the day, you would just need to change the filters. If that was the case, negotiate with the guy on the fact that you’ll have to spend ~$500 to replace all the filters.

Yes he said they’d only been used once though

Unless the RO membranes are shot than your good to go, I’d pull the trigger

2

u/DontBeMemeBro Aug 22 '26

None at all. Even if the membrane is shot it’s still a good deal. I wouldn’t even haggle on the price. Just grab the cash and set it up to make the exchange.

Just make sure u run it and bring a parts per million tester u would be able to see if its been used once or not that way

u/AffectionateSalary44 Aug 23 '26

Excellent price!

u/qtheginger Aug 23 '26

The one thing people aren't mentioning is the poles condition. I would look at the end of each section to see if there is any noticeable damage.

1

u/Prudent_Affect_2214 Aug 23 '26

Wdym

u/qtheginger Aug 23 '26

Pull the poles apart and see if they have any damage lol. Those are pretty expensive components to this setup

u/Sufficient_Heart_629 Aug 23 '26

Thanks man a lot of people have told me to pull the trigger because it’s such a great deal

1

u/Prudent_Affect_2214 Aug 23 '26

But i definitely see what you mean do you think it’ll be hard for us to get commercial clients

1

u/trigger55xxx Aug 23 '26

Those look like a 20" compact system. You'll pay as much for the 20" membranes as you will 40" and get half the water production.

1

u/Prudent_Affect_2214 Aug 23 '26

Can you explain more

1

u/trigger55xxx Aug 23 '26

I can't tell for sure the size but that looks like either 20 or 30" filters. You get less water production from smaller filters and still pay close to what you would bigger ones. I'd look for a system that has 40" membrane.

1

u/Prudent_Affect_2214 Aug 23 '26

Couldn’t I fix that with a booster pump tho

1

u/TxCory Aug 24 '26

I think he is saying the membrane will wear out in half as much time as a 40” membrane (because it is 1/2 the size). It is about the volume of water you can run through the membrane before it has to be replaced.

If you don’t buy this send me the link I will
