Filtering

[Matt Barnett]

I brought this system & i filtered last night for the first time. They guy said it would take a maximum of 2 hours to fill.. 6 hours later & still only 3/4 full?? Any ideas what I can do.. Any booster pump idea? Thanks

My old 500 used to take 4-5 hours to fill.

On my new system I added a booster pump (available from anybof the suppliers) and can now fill in less than 2 hours.

Six hours for a quarter tank sounds like really low water pressure.

Good luck.

Did you add the pump to your system or to the mains in your home? Im new to this so all abit confused lol!

Added to my system. This way I am not restricted to only filling up at home.

Thanks I'll see what I can do.. That seems like it would be alot less of a cost

Some houses have different pressure so will take longer. The last place I lived in have crazy water pressure. . 600 l filled in 2 hours without a pump.. the new flat is 4 hours. Without a pump...

what size of tank is it ?? also imo way to long to fill up as i get roughly 125-150 litres per hour

A decent booster pump should halve the fill time - but will cost you!! Unless you can get info on the Clarke pump mentioned on here in the past. Water pressure and temperature will have a massive effect on fill time as will air in the system.

And if you are filling up elsewhere, can you get 230v electricity to drive the booster pump if you fit one?
