I started WFP window cleaning a couple of months back and bought a 300 GPD system (2x150 GPD membranes) to support a 2 man van system. It’s working well, but we’re planning on having another lad work for us soon and setting him up with a trolley system, so obviously I’ll need a more powerful system.
I bought 2 300 GPD membranes thinking to myself ‘simple, I’ll just replace the membranes with ones that make twice as much water’ but they don’t fit in the current housing. I’ve ordered the bigger housing, but it dawned on me yesterday that they won’t fit in the brackets on the system! ? I’ve tried looking online for the bigger brackets, and while the 2.5” brackets are easy to find, the 3.5” are impossible to source. Does anyone know where/if I can buy them? If I can’t find them, I’m guessing the brackets don’t really make a difference other than aesthetics? I’m sure I can fix the housing in place by another means.
Is there anything else I need to bear in mind when switching to more powerful membranes? Is it literally a case of just connecting them and off we go? in hindsight it would probably have been better to buy a whole new 600 GPD system - you live and learn!
