Looking for a RO Unit for a new SW Tank. The tank is 56g, and my budget is <$150
 
Which one do you suggest, he sells many different models
 
Yep! That's the one I have. I actually ordered that one, and they sent me one that only had 1 di unit, and then came with a faucet, a holding tank, and a drinking water 'taste filter'.

I called them up and they overnighted the extra DI unit with the hardware and told me to keep the other stuff.

I couldn't be happier with the unit and the service I received.

:)
 
I just received the same one and hooked it up today!!! I was a little suprised by how slow it was... but i think im going to get a small holding tank so when i go to do small water changes, its already there for me...

It takes a while for the it to break in.. I can fill a gallon jug to top off my system now in about 30 minutes. Also that 100 gpd (gallons per day) limit is based on the water pressure going into the RO/DI Unit. If you don't have a decent water pressure its going to be slower.
 
i have that RO unit too. Its a good unit, solid. I would recommend it to someone who wanted one that can produce like 75gpd and low cost. Good water of course too. The 110gpd is not right, thats just if you have the best possible conditions of water already running through the filter to begin with. I would say something like 75gpd is more reasonable.
