Anybody use a crspotless system?

I have been reading up on it and everybody that has it loves it. Where I live I have no shade to wash anything in and out of our 7 cars and trucks 3 of them are black. Washing in the direct sun sucks due to water drying before you can get it dried off and you get spots all over the place. With the crspotless there is no need to dry because it eliminates the minerals in the water and it dries spotless. This will also reduce marring due to one less process being done.

I think I am going to order one in the next couple weeks and give it a shot. Costco sells it for a way better deal than anybody else.

I've not heard of that, but if it's a filtering system than it should work good. I've got a Griot's Garage water filtering system that eliminates water spots when I wash. The replacement filters are very expensive so I only use them during the final rinse.

Is this the one you have?

If it is does it use non serviceable cartridges or does it use loose resin? If it uses loose resin then you can save money by getting the resin else where like here.

I am going to get this unit right here from costco. It is $369.99 at costco.

It comes with 1 full extra resin refill when bought from costco. It should filter about 300 gallons of water per refill. Then next summer I will get the bag of resin I linked to above and that's enough for 3 refills so 900 gallons of filtered water. That should last me all summer.

No, I don't have the portable unit. I just have the filter setup that attaches to the garden nozzle. I have it on a splitter so I can use regular water to wash and then switch the water over thru the filter to save money. I got it from Griots about 2-3 years ago I think. They might not carry it anymore. I think I paid just under $200 for it. I've only had to change the filter 2x and I have 1 left in the garage. If I were to use it full time I am sure the cartridges would only last a few weeks.

The one you're looking at should be fine.
