Deionizing Water System - Spot-Free Rinse
Hard water ruins great results. Even after a perfect wash, minerals like calcium and magnesium in your tap water can leave behind stubborn water spots, streaks, and mineral residue—especially under the sun.
The Ethos Deionizing Water System gives you access to ultra-pure, spot-free water for your final rinse. Whether you're a weekend warrior or a professional detailer, this system helps your vehicle dry clean, clear, and streak-free—no towels required.
Why You Need a Spot-Free Rinse System
-
True Spot-Free Rinsing
Ion exchange resin removes hard water minerals at the source—no streaks, no etching, no deposits. -
Ideal for Final Rinses
Use at the end of your wash to eliminate the need for towel drying or forced air. Perfect for paint, glass, and trim. -
Switch Between DI and Tap Water Instantly
The included bypass kit lets you toggle between deionized and non-deionized water in seconds. Use DI water only when needed to preserve resin life. -
Compact, Portable & Detailer-Friendly
A professional-grade unit sized for home garages or mobile setups. Easy to hook up and remove with no tools required. -
Long-Lasting, Replaceable Resin
Filled with high-quality virgin mixed bed resin that can be replaced affordably when exhausted. Includes hand-held TDS meter to monitor water purity.
Technical Specifications
-
Dimensions: 9.25" diameter x 24" height
-
Resin Capacity: ½ cubic foot of high-grade virgin mixed bed resin
-
Output Connections: Quick-connect fittings
-
Bypass Valve: Dual-knob system for easy switching between DI and bypass
-
Accessories Included:
-
Deionizer tank (pre-filled with resin)
-
Bypass kit
-
4’ high-pressure hose
-
Hand-held TDS meter
-
Bypass Function Explained
The integrated bypass valve allows you to easily divert water around the deionizer when spot-free water is not required—helping to extend the life of your resin and reduce refill frequency. Just twist two knobs to switch between DI and tap flow. Ideal for rinsing off driveways, wheels, or doing a pre-wash without wasting resin.
Water Output Estimates
Estimates assume:
-
Tap water with 250 PPM total dissolved solids (TDS)
-
MAX Flow rate of 3 gallons per minute (GPM)
-
Cars (5 gallons per rinse): ~125 rinses per fill
-
RVs (30 gallons per rinse): ~20 rinses per fill
Resin lifespan will vary depending on your actual local TDS and usage. Use the included TDS meter to monitor when the resin needs to be replaced (typically when readings exceed 10–20 PPM for spot-free performance).
How It Works
-
Connect to Hose or Pressure Washer
Attaches via quick-connect fittings to your standard garden hose or pressure washer setup. -
Water Flows Through Resin
Positively and negatively charged ions (calcium, magnesium, iron, etc.) are removed through mixed-bed ion exchange. -
Pure Water = Spot-Free Rinse
The result is pure, mineral-free water that evaporates without a trace. Let your vehicle air dry naturally with zero risk of spots.
