    Default Deer run 375 question

    This is my second year with one of a Ray's 375 unit. At the end of last year the hose off of the pressure pump developed a leak. Ray sent a replacement hose and it was a easy repair, then again this year it done it again. I was wondering if anyone else have had this problem .
    Thanks Craig

    I had one of Ray's 375's for a couple of years and never had a leak at the pressure hose. I did have a leak at a plastic fitting before it was ever fired up and he replaced it.

    Mine is a 250, but I've used it since 2012, no leaks at HP hose. My only leaks over the years have been at connections, they just needed replacing a fitting.
    Dave Klish, I recently ordered a 2x6 wood fired evaporator from A&A Sheet Metal which I will be converting to oil fired
    Now have solar, 2x6 finish pan, 5 bank 7x7 filter press, large water jacketed bottler, and tankless water heater.
    Recently bought another Gingerich RO, this one was a 125, but a second membrane was added thus is a 250, like I had.
    After running a 2x3, a 2x6, 3x8 tapping from 79 taps up to 1320 all woodfired, now I'm going to a 2x6 oil fired and a 200-425 taps.

    I have a 250, used when I bought it. Ran great the 1st year. Over the summer when I was cleaning up the outside a bit, one of the high pressure hose connections to the membrane housing broke off. Ray sold me a couple of the new connections they are now using, saying that seems to have become a problem with his hoses. I am glad that I ordered 2 of the stainless adapters as one of the other hoses sprang a leak too. I guess I need to replace the rest of the connections before next season.
