Oasis flush

[Richpatty]

Hey everyone. My oasis fluid is due for a change (maybe overdue) and was wondering how many of you have done this yourselves or had someone do it. I got a quote from a local guy for about $700 including the fluid.

Thanks

$700? What in the world is involved? I changed a pump without clamping the lines and 1/2 of my fluid flushed out. I filled the reservoir back up with new fluid for whatever the fluid costs. Now I agree that whoever does the work will probably need to find a more professional way to drain the fluid, but damn man, how hard can it be?

Unless there is some kind of secondary flushing fluid that they run through the system???

Edit: Has ChatGPT do a search and yep, that is apparently the going rate. Even more in some places! I think I would do it myself. Doesn't appear there is that much to it.

The fluid is listed as $30 per gallon….for $10 gallons. So that’s half of it. I believe my system will probably take up to 15 gallons.

I know you can get a better price…even CW has it for less than $25 per gallon and I think you can buy it in 5 gallon buckets for less, so there’s that.

I have been thinking of doing it myself…even if it took me many hours. But was wondering how many people have actual done it themselves.

Good luck, Rich!
