Which ro/di unit to get?

[Pet Detective]

I do 10g water changes every week on my 75g tank, would the 75g per day unit be ok over the 150g per day? I know it depends on your water pressure but on the average how much water can you really make and does it really take a long time?

The only difference between the units is the membrane, 1 is rated 75gpd, the other is 150gpd, buy the cheapest unit & you can always upgrade your memnbrane, although 75gpd is the best all around membrane for waste to zero tds water ratio.

I have a BRS 6 stage 75 gallon per day. My tap water is pretty nasty with a tds well into triple digits. It comes out of the RO membrane at 3 tds and that is with just 55 lbs of pressure. I get about 300 gallons switch a DI cartridge. The 75 gallon per day seems to produce over 100 gallons of o tds RO/DI water per day. The spectra pure systems sound a bit better, but the system I have works well and better than advertised.

It looks like BRS comes with a few attachments to hook it up, The Filter Guys the adapter is extra but just a few dollars. I'm guessing the only other extra I would need is a float switch to install in the container?

Yes, great item to have is a float switch. Buy the basic not the fancy one (adjustable one I think is less reliable)
