Recommendations for RO Units

Bainreese · 01/05/2011, 05:40 PM

I'm needing a modest size RO unit for a 40g setup that I am going to be building here soon and I was wondering if the fine people here could chime in with units they use and are happy with.

The size of my tank and the need for water will be pretty small, so I don't need anything overly ambitious but I do want something that I can rely on and that is the primary reason for posting.

Thanks to all in advance...still navigating my first few days on this site. Lots of info.

The typhoon 3 from air,water&ice has worked great for me.

bulk reef supply and buckeye are the other 2 good choices. i have a bulk and love it but the one of the people from buckeye does a lot of good work on this site helping people with problems with any ro unit

My Typhoon 150gpd just arrived today. Really like the extras they tossed in and the directions are great. Has 2 TDS meters and a pressure gauge. Can't wait to get it set up and going. It was from Air Water Ice.

sometimes it helps to look outside of the aquarium market for certain things. i got a hydrologic unit from a hyrdoponic store for a steal. get a bulk reef supply di filter and you got perfect water.
