hmmmmm im interested in the Watts Premier 4 stage, 24 gpd TFC RO for 75$......how long have you had it?

 

[Ah64av8tor]

it needs new filters.... Im not sure how old it is

 

[A.T.DAWG]

it still works though right?
TFC filters are like 80$ correct?

 

[Ah64av8tor]

The sediment and carbon are only a few bucks from the HD and you can get a 6 pack at Sams for $20....Im sure that the price of the TFC is not that much.

ty....i really needed to hear that, i dont like not seeing the person for some reason, i dont know must just be me.

Ah64av8tor i will most likely buy it, i just dont know when i will be able to pick it up.

 

[Ah64av8tor]

With new sediment filters and TFC which includes a 250 ml flow restrictor, you have a new RO unit.

There is nothing left to stop it from working, if the housing is bad Ill buy it ALL back from you.

not knowing somebody is why you need a third party like PayPal-
is item sold as is?
in working order?
better value than new RO filters made of PVC at Life Oceanic?

Before you come to the conclusion that you need an RO, why don't you test your source water? There are people who get lucky with some great city water, or even well water.

We live in close proximity to some of the largest Phosphate mines in the country. We can’t live with out one.

 

[A.T.DAWG]

ummmm...my water smells like a pool so i seriously dont think it is good
thx though, how would i go about testing my water?

 

[A.T.DAWG]

lol.....yes

 

[a2fire2i]

your lfs maybe have a tds meter. after spending a ton of money on fish and corals, why not give them the best water you can get them?

 

[A.T.DAWG]

true thats why i am buying the R/O unit from Ah64av8tor.
what is a TDs meter and do i need one if i have an R/O unit?
