Prolly been asked 1,000 times but Recomend me an RODI unit please.
Sorry if its been asked before, and I know it has but I've been looking all over eBay and they all look ok to me but I didnt know if anyone has had personal experience with any of these units.
Any suggestions? Thank you

Haven't got it yet, but I researched A LOT and you get the most for your money with the RO/DI "PLUS" systems from BRS. I would say 4 stage if you have no chloramine and 5 stage if you have chloramine. I'll tell you my opinion when it gets here in a few days.

+1 for thefilterguys.biz
I have the Ocean Reef+1 Five Stage and have been very happy with it. The best part is you can call them and they will personally answer any questions you have. The dual inline TDS meter that this unit comes with is helpful to see when you need to change the filters. BeloitReef |
