I am looking in purchasing a RO/DI setup here pretty shortly and was wondering what everyone has and recommends...
I know that there is alont of info on this subject some new some old but would like to just ask everyone what they have and like. Post pics of your setups as well. Thanks for the help and feedback - this will help in my choosing what system. Scott

Scott - how many gallons do you hav in your entire system (tank/refug/sump). That's a reasonable place to start to determine the capacity of an RODI system you might get. 75 gpd systems are the most popular.
Are you on City water? |

With that size of sytem, you wouldn't want to go with anything smaller than a 75 gpd unit. The 100 gpd has a lower rejection rate, but our 150 gpd membrane has a 98% rejection rate.
What city are you in - what is the name of your water utility? Let's make sure you don't have chloramine in your water. Russ |

i have a filterguys ocean reef +. great unit, and I got it on a special, so it was even less $$ than a typhoon and has more goodies to it.
even not on sale, the Filter guys stuff is nice.
