By-pass Filtration
Chas:
--- Quote ---I don't care how you clean your filter, I care how I clean mine.
I don't care if you have 100% no by pass filtration, my water is clean.
I don't care if you are TP or FF, I pay my energy bills because they are mine, now you pay yours.
I don't care too much about any of you...
--- End quote ---
That's all well and good. But, if I may ask - if you truly don't care about any of this, why do you have full-page rant in the middle of a thread with the TOPIC - By-pass Filtration?
It would appear you care very much about all this.
And other than you, I truly don't see many folks knocking the various systems. As you say - they all work.
HS doesn't draw unfiltered water into the plumbing. Simple statement, and it contains no words such as "Better, Best, " or similar.
Sundance puts a larger circ pump on some of it's high-end models. They move a bunch of water, though nobody including SD claims it costs the same to do so. Their jet pumps have NO filtration on those models, but you don't really need it when the filter system is so powerful. The rest of their models use a bypass system where part of the water goes through the jet pumps unfiltered.
That's all we are saying! Two different ways (Actually three) to get to the same end.

You're right Chas. Â I went back and re-read the entire thread and that rant was what started the downturn in the civil discussion we were having. Â Some folks seem to like to be instigators. :(

Are you arguing with me ? Â ;)
Yes, the quote is offensive, but not directed at anyone here. I will remove it if people are upset by it.

Nope....definitely not arguing with you.....this time. ;) I just felt like the quote is not worth repeating because of its reference to special olympics and the people who participate in them. No harm, no foul.....just my opinion.

I JUST read all this......and.....YIKES.....can we get back to the cool diagramage that Term made, and discuss the pros and cons of filtering buggers, spermies and bottles out of the system? ;D
Here's one for ya....I've got a Hoover Wind Tunnel vacuum. It's the bagless variety with something like 3 different filters.....their sales pitch partly revolved around the dirt that gets sucked up into the vac NOT going thru the motor (or fan or some other important sucky part) but being bypassed, so all that crap doesn't damage the motor and fan components...so they're saying that keeping the junk away is a GOOD thing, and the vacuum still sucks... ::) And yes.....it's sucked up so much cat hair, dog hair, toenails, hair, etc, etc ICK...that I'd hate to think of clogging the system up prematurely by NOT having it bypassed......
So I think, that in MHO....I'd just as soon have the HS filtering to keep the "little extras" out of the plumbing, because of the "ounce of prevention" theory, if nothing else.
I don't have a groovy diagram to post......but I'll leave you with this:
