I'll throw this out there...

I bought a CR Spotless system in March...

Used it once. Haven't used it since...either the weather was too cold/windy or, more commonly the CG does not allow coach washing. This is the biggest factor.

We are full-time. Wife talked me into purchasing a waterless kit. She wants to sell the CR system.

As much as I don't want to sell it-it is heavy and takes up space.

A lot of campgrounds don't allow you to wash the coach. The advantage for full timers having an on board pressure washer and spotless rinse system is that you can wash your coach in an empty parking lot or even a rest area using onboard water.

How many washes do you get before having to change the pellets? And what does a change run? Thank you, Stuart

We got several washes out of one cannister (I wash the coach alot). I purchased replacement powder in July and I think it was $40ish on Amazon.

Stuart, if you get a deionizer unit you will love it. Used properly, you will have absolutely zero spots after rinse. It will keep that new Dutch Star looking brand new.

PM me if you go with the CR Spotless brand. I get a discount on future purchases if I refer someone, and you will too after you own one.

Best regards,
W.D.

Th source water hardness will likely impact the life of the filter. The harder the source water, the shorter the life of the filter. you would know, once the spots starts showing up.
