Thank you! Always great to hear that it was helpful!

Thanks, yeah tried to balance details with not boring everyone haha yeah water maker has been amazing with 5 on board. One thing I'll add is the plastic fittings on the freshwater backwash line leaked so switched it for a barbed stainless fitting also recommend adding a valve as you have to shut down/depressurize all freshwater to change fitting which is annoying

No problem glad it helped that was our goal with the video, it's a big install so wanted to show all the details as the instructions aren't great but was familiar enough with watermakers I was able to get it figured out. Always good see others DIYers going for it and doing their own work so have any questions free to ask and if you see us around we're always down to meet the neighbors lol

Yeah hope it helps, we love our system now issues yet. Good luck on the install

@@sailinguntilvalhalla When connecting high pressure hose, did you use teflon tape?

I don't use Teflon on high pressure taper fittings as the interference fit should be the seal

Glad to hear, yeah i felt the same way actually. I worked in a boatyard and had been around a few of them so was pretty familiar how they worked in other brands but still had a few questions that i ended up "figuring out" and felt i should do a detailed install even though it would make a long maybe more boring video for some. At the end of the day we do these videos to share our real experiences not be popular so enjoy hearing feedback like this, thanks and good luck it's worth it when it's all installed haha

Thanks just happy it's done lol, yeah there is alot of plumbing for sure took a lot longer than planned. Sounds like your at least close, looks nice from the picture i saw and yeah we haven't ran ours much at the marina because of water quality but planning a winter run soon to go out and really make water but hope the rest of the install goes smooth

Working on it lol it's been snowing here past couple days

Yeah I already ended up swapping some of the the fittings for brass ones as the freshwater flush line stated leaking pretty bad. So you have to replace the hose with potable water hose, then just take the plastic fitting to hardware shop and match the threads with a brass/stainless barbed fitting and hose clamp it way better in my opinion. I haven't had to pickle ours yet as we are always using it but if in not going to run it for a week (like in a marina) I just manually run the fresh water flush through the keep membranes wet and no issues but for pickling you could pop off intake or add a t-valve to give you and option to fill a bucket with water/picking solution

😂 yes definitely the whole family loves watching it lol

Sorry for late response, I usually rinse the system for 15m after ever use, no HP pump its "T"'d into the freshwater system so uses freshwater pump pressure to flush system, pretty cool setup we like it alot no complaints
