RO-DI recommendations please
I need some help with choosing a RO-DI system. I've not used rodi for 4 plus years. My tds usually reads below 40 out of the tap. I'd like to put more sensitive corals in the tank so I'm sure I need to take out some of my town water uncontrollable additives.
Can I get some recomendations for a decent rodi unit... Thanks in advance |

I would go with spectrapure, buckeye filed supply or the filter guys. All make great products and have excellent customer service.

Go have a read. Even if you don't buy from them, they have great info. I would take all this info into consideration as you look about. One thing I didn't realize was that you want is a DI that is vertical rather than horizontal.

Spectapure is top of the line! In my opinion it is the best.

I purchased a 5 stage RO/DI unit from BRS a few months ago and am very happy with it. I like the fact that they give you 4 different ways to connect the unit to your water supply especially. You can always get in a group buy on the forums also.
