RO / DI Purification Units
6 RO/DI (Reverse Osmosis + Deionising) water purification units for the Tucker water-fed pole window + solar panel cleaning workflow. Strip dissolved solids from tap water so the rinse water leaves no streaks or residue on dry.
RO + DI stage. Reverse Osmosis (RO) stage removes 95-99 percent of dissolved solids. DI (Deionising) resin removes the remaining ions, getting the water to near-zero ppm TDS. Used together because RO alone leaves trace ions; DI alone has short resin life on tap water.
TDS target. Window cleaning: 10-20 ppm TDS rinse. Solar panel cleaning: near 0 ppm TDS rinse. TDS meter measures output water purity. Replace DI resin when TDS climbs above target threshold.
