RO/DI unit from ebay

I bought one called the water general. It has 2 refillable di units on top. It works great. The nice thing with the clear di canisters is you can see the color and if it is channeling water. I ordered extra di medium and I have added some twice after it settled. My water is 380 out of the tap, around 30 after thr ro part and 0 after the di. It was about $100. out of Orange county Ca.
 
i got mine from these guys..\

i got the ocean reef +1, and i can say its a really nice unit, at a great price. my dual inline tds meter registered 440 ppm striaght from the tap, and 4 ppm after the RO unit, and 0 after the di.

if you have too high of tds before the DI, you will wear it out quickly.
 
Filter Direct is really good. I have 2 of their units and they've been working great. One is 5 years old the other is 3.
 
If you do some research here on RC you will find your answer. I recommend the Typhoon III from www.airwaterice.com The numerous reasons why it is one of the better units can be found in this forum.

I have a water general from EBay. I liked it at fist, but messing with the horizontal DI chambers is getting old. I have a standard, vertical chamber coming from Bryan at www.purelyh2o.com .
My unit was around $120 delivered if I recall. It produced 0 TDS for a long time....I have since replaced the DI resin and since then I have to "top off" the DI chambers pretty often to prevent channelling. The vertical chamber will fix that.
Am I happy with my filterdirect unit? Sort of. Would I but another one? Personally, I'd but from www.purelyh2o.com, but there are other good units from AWI, Buckeye, melev and others. Bryan at purelyh2o helps folks a lot here, so, in a "tie" he would win IMO.
 
I purchased a 6 stage Aqua Safe system about a year ago, still working great. TDS readings at 2 right now and haven't replaced any filters yet.
