Is this a good ro/di unit????
 
My g.f. is buying it for our annaversary :) The slower the gpd the better filtration it can do. I'll see if i can find a link on it. It was by someone who was going to downgrade to a 75 from a 100 gpd.
 
I've got the same unit and it works great. I've tested output water and it has 0 phosphates & silicate & all others. Output flow is fine (produces a gallon in less than an hour). I've got the flush kit but have not installed it yet. I should mention that this is the only RO unit I've ever owned, so I have nothing to compare the quality/price to, but I am very happy with it.
 
Looks like a nice unit. Once you start using RO water you will never go back, it really makes the aquariums look crystal clear. Be sure to shop around, I have seen the Kent Marine Hi-S Maxxima 35GPD RO/DI from $180 to well over $200. Good Luck

$166 :)


I just want to have the fancy guages, and the electric conductivity meter that some of the nicer brands of RO units have :-\ but they cost ALOT more.
