*Van-mounted by Brodex, all repairs are carried out at Brodex premises, not in the field. Pump warranty 24 months, no warranty on membrane. Please note that the installation of a water softener to feed any reverse osmosis systems may prolong lifespan of membranes. Brodex recommend that in hard water areas, a local softener supplier is employed to install a static water softener at client premises. Regular flushing of membranes will increase lifespan of membranes and is recommended at weekly intervals. There is an economic balance decision to be made as to whether a softener is necessary.
