right iv been looking at making some 4dkh solution , now i know i need de-ionised water so i can either buy some water from halfords or i can make my own , so if i run water through my ro unit with di chamber will this make the water i need or do i need to run it only through the di chamber without the rest of the ro unit

or will this not work at all

cheers jagz
 
cheers matt ,

so i add
6g of Sodium Bicarbonate to 5 litre of di ro and that give me 40dkh
i then take 100ml of this mix and mix it with 900ml of plain di ro
and this should then give me 1 litre of 4dkh solution

have i got that right

cheers jagz
 
cheers matt ,

so am i right in thinking that if i mix 3g of sodium bicarbonate with 2.5 litres of di ro i will still get the 40dkh

cheers

You could mix it and see
Just test with dkh test
Personally I would stick with the tried and tested

Hi Matt
I'm not to sure about De-Ionised RO water....but Ive tried it with normal RO water and it didn't work.
hoggie.
 
arrr hoggie it would be 4 stage ro unit so it is prefilter > carbon > membrane > DI Resin

so it is going through the di aswell

matt do you get 4dk when you have made it mate

cheers jagz
 
if you run it through DI resin that make di water

so by using di resin in my ro unit i would be making di ro water

jagz
 
so what are your 2 stages bud

jagz
 
oh right ok , yea i have di resin in mine aswell so im going to have a try and ill post up the results

cheers jagz

Good man.
 
Mine is a 4 stage ro and I made 4 dkh absolutely fine using it
The di resin just removes all the last Cheka that the membrane can't deal with so that you end up with a TDS of zero
