From Walter the H2O guru...

Hi ,

I see that this page is primarily equipment.
I need an opinion would you guys be interested in DIY R.O.D.I. kits ?

Walter

 

HI ,

I like to think that with all of the money we spent for our diagrams that they must be the best .
So yes the reef keeper kit would have very good instructions .
 So as an experiment we could offfer  a couple and see how it went I was thinking that a Diy Typhoon would be about $ 59.00 no membrane .
That way you could pick the membrane you wanted . So all of the parts to build a Typhoon plus the sediment and two coconut carbon blocks for $ 59.00. Add some UPS and you could have a graet project .


Our instructions for installation and our diagram ( exploded would be included).

Walter

 

Wow! That's a fantastic deal Walter! 8) 8) 8)

 

YoooHoooo Craig..... any light bulbs going off over there Craig?

 

One quick question for all of you . Which pump should we use to drive our new chiller . We need 1-3 gallons per minute . Needs to be reliable quiet and capable of only 1-2 psi or about 6 feet of head.
We are giong to be buying a very large quantity and we don't want to hear that we picked the wrong pump .

Walter

 

1 to 3 gallons per minute?
1 gallon per minute OR 60 Gallons per hour.
2 gallons per minute OR 120 Gallons per hour.
3 gallons per minute OR 180 gallons per hour.

One thing to think about would be cost when buying bulk or more bang for the buck.
Do you have a distributor lined up?
What type of connections are you thinking about using?

 

The maxi jet 400 is 106 GPH.
I have not owned one but people always say they are dependable and quiet.

The Maxi Jet 600 is 160 GPH.

Check out PA and Jason there may have a deal for you.

RIO make a small pump also that I use and never had any real issue with.
Are you needing an external or internal pump?

Thanks ,

That was quick , we used 1/4 tubing with our quick connect fittings . In fact we used a rio . the male thread portion of the fitting when wrapped with teflon fit really well into the smooth plastic hole .
No we have not lined up a vendor ,as we are still waiting to get a feel for how our customers feel about pumps . The initial run of chillers is scheduled as 100 . We have the materials for 1,000 . So we will probably buy one hundred at first .

Thanks The h2oGuru
