DOS unit

can these 2 pumps be configured/programmed to dose 4 things (alk/ca/mag/vodka) or MUST you have two DOS units to handle 4 additives?

thanks

They're peristaltic pumps and only capable of dosing 1 additive per pump. In your case you would need 2 dos units.

DOS Question
1. Are they worth having.
2. Do the heads need replacing like other dosing pumps.
3. What size are the tubes 1/4"?
