Bulk Reef Supply RO/DI
Any thoughts? If you are using one, are you happy with the decision? So many to choose from.

I have yet to hear anything bad about any of the products they sell. I just ordered a filter from them and it is very strong material and the fittings are great also.

I started with a 50 GPD Coralife unit added a second DI and switched to the 75 GPD membrane from BRS. Everything works great and no problems. Because I'm on a well I'm thinking of adding a second sediment (1 Micron) filter just to clean things up a little more before the carbon and membrane

I really like the "build your own" option. That way you can build the filter to fit your needs.
I got a basic unit a few years ago and have added a few things to it over time. Very good quality and heavy duty plastic canisters. Dropped mine a couple times without incident, not so lucky with my old Coralife pureflo Last edited by ricde; 03/30/2010 at 08:25 PM. |

I just bought one about a month ago from BRS and it works great! So much cheaper than buying water from my LFS. I bought mine new on ebay from one of their auctions and saved almost $60.00 on a 5 stage so that might be something to look at too.

Just got my 5 stage deluxe + drinking water kit yesterday and working on installing it now. I literally called them at least 10 times during the process of planning all the runs (to ATO, storage Brute and to multiple faucets with drinking water) and they had answers and advice for everything! And, free shipping right now, which saved about $30 for an order of 60 pounds of stuff!

have the 75 gpd 3 stage with singe di from brs. great unit, great price. have now turned into 4 stage dual di system using my old coralife setup for dual di with brs parts & fittings
did a lot of research before purchase. couldn`t find cheaper unit with same fittings & membrane anywhere else. was after purchase & still am very happy with my choice BRS is one of my favorite vendors & i have just about used them all
