Nice bathrooms u have there weikee. Btw, good job for covering your Johnson Suisse Lago seat cover. Sometimes the foreign workers will use the toilet bowls to do their "business" and usually they will leave yellowish marks on the seat cover.

learnt a new lesson over here, next time when I change my bowl, have to cover like that brows.gif

That is why i use 3M, and is certified. My plumber thought i use conventional sand filter, and made the inlet & outlet too wide. If make narrower it look even better.
*
hmm.gif so for this kind of 3M filter, it has a cartridge inside and you have to change/wash periodically?

If I recall correct, the sale personal indicated the filter need to change every 1 year or when you found the air pressure drop...and it damn costly on the filter...somemore didnt have back wash...sad.gif
*
actually for cartridge changing, the correct way should be according to the filtered volume or used duration whichever comes earlier

Do backwash need to change filter? Or longer duration use?
*
For backwash one, the sands inside the filter will rearrange and washing themself, after that it will arrange back to its filtration layers accordingly, but the drawback is you are wasting the water to wash it only smile.gif Nothing to change, this is what the salesman told me

Why it waste water if the water can remove/wash the dirt out? So does the sand need to be replace after sometime when it no longer can filter?

Water is still cheaper than replace the filter.
*
Because you need to let it run for 15-20minutes for washing, so it is wasting the water lor smile.gif The one I asked is puregen and the sands for outdoor unit no need to replace, I look at their website, they patented their sands for outdoor units, and the salesman also inform me the outdoor unit comes with 10years warranty, NSF standard 42 according to my previous study, now duno ada increased or not

Sand filter don't filter very good. My parent house had this problem and we change to membrane type.  And is bulky.

FYI, Sand need to change every 2 or 3 years. And is not very clean filter. Try take out the sand after 2 years. Is black / greenish and very slippery.

Want to have good water, change the gov lah. In some country water can drink direct from tap not here.

Haha, then we have to vote for change tongue.gif

What i mean on "Acid Stain" is staining the concrete to difference color.

You need Acid for cleaning, go to hardware shop and buy.

Is natural concrete/cement color. Not imprint. Is reaction of acid and cement. Called acid stained. Very popular in US. Got many difference color too.

If I gave the budget will do my internal house ground floor too. No tiles cause very boring.

I know this many many years back. Malaysia Concrete work is really lousy compare to other country. Even Singapore do better job.

Another coming famous is polymer flooring. Apply to concrete too. Also very nice.

icic, I am too new in reno thingy, the polymer flooring looks cool, duno the durability will high or not as Polymer consider quite soft as compared to tiles..

herm just wondering the PYE Acrylic sealer can be used in toilet to plaster the gaps in between tiles at the floor corner? so that the wall outside toilet will not trap the moisture
