XERO Regen DI Resin

How long will the resin last in storage?

Resin changes depend on how often you use it and how hard the water is. When your TDS readings reach about 10, it's time for a resin change.

Hi, I'm looking at using loose resin with my unger hydropower system. Just wondering how much is needed for a single refill? I'm in Canada and considering the cost effectiveness of driving to the states to buy this? Any help is appreciated!

I have two questions... 1) Is there any difference in the longevity or performance between virgin resin & regenerated resin? ... 2) On average, how many gallons of purified water (with a TDS reading of zero) can you get with a 1/4 cubic foot of resin?

There is very little difference between this once washed regenerated resin and virgin resin. The quality of the water produced is exactly the same, it may simply produce slightly fewer gallons. How many gallons of water resin can produce 100% depends on the incoming TDS.

What is the difference in performance between virgin and regenerated resin?

The regenerated resin works a little better only because all the fines from manufacturing have been removed. The thing is for what we as window cleaners need for spot free cleaning their is not enough difference for you to spend more money buying virgin resin. Regeneration is the process used to charge and clean resin.

If that is a standard DI tank then our resin would work for you.
