I was just wondering if anyone here is using DI water day-to-day within their detailing business. If you are, where did you get the setup/products? How cost effective is it for you? Is it really worth it in the long run?


`


I ask these questions because I recent setup an account with a local Culligan`s Water Co, and I`m about to install these tanks in my van and run a bypass and use the DI water just for rinsing purposes, with the hopes of achieving spot free results.


`


It`s not cheap, but it`s not super expensive either and here in Texas, it doesn`t take long for your rinse to dry, my water at home (where I fill my tank daily) is pretty awful and is spotting vehicles, it`s annoying me a tad bit.


`


Feel free to chime in and share your experiences, equipment, etc....


`


I will also add an update once I install everything and give it a shot this weekend.


`


Just to give you an idea of cost:


`


$152 for 2 tanks (basically + & -) $50 each for the tanks, and $20 rental fee for each tank and taxes....$152


`


The rental fee is once a month whether I use 1 set or 20 sets, but the exchange is $50 per tank, and typically you will swap both, so $100 + tax


`


I was told I should get about 1500 gallons out of each exchange


`


Again, please feel free to comment...


`


Thanks!
