MAx Cap RODI 90GPD Filter Replacements

Hi guys,

Was wondering if anyone is using a different replacement filter pack for the Max cap 90 GPD unit Was just looking for a better option because of Spectrapure shipping. Its $18.00 to ship and that drives the price up.

They are .05 filters. Thoughts

Marindepot sells them as well and if you bought your RO/DI from them life long 15% off. Shipping should be cheaper.

+1

I am local to Spectrapure and I still buy online from them. Their hours are inconvenient for me to buy from the store front. I do believe the shipping from MD is less than $10

When the MaxCap 1st came out I changed over & it almost tripled my gallons between cartridge changes.

Sorry, I'm not sure I understand? How did you do that?

Just by changing from a regular DI cartridge to a Max CAP & keeping track of TDS on the meter.
