Do you think that running hot water thru the typhoon makes the filters
wear out quicker? Does it effect the RO water quality? Or do some of you do this as well?
I hope someone answers this post because I just ordered a Typhoon III and have been thinking of running warm water through it to increase the output. :rollface:
not sure on hot water, but I know around 70F is where you will get optimum output according the the instructions. I have a typhoon III as well. I run just cold water through it. I still get 50+ gallons a day out of it.
the water will leech metals from the inside of your water heater, which the filter will then have to take out, likely shortening the lives of the cartridges - I would just use your cold water.
O.K.. Well. Guess that settles it. I was using the hot water spout that is supposed to go to my washing machine. I never wash anything in hot water so I thought I'd use it for my RO water.
Well that sucks. It was so convenient. Now the cold water I'll be using is probably around 45 degrees. Oh well. Thanks for the input everyone
