RO/DI units

[space]

Any recommendations? I am looking at buying my first one and since I have a nano tank, getting the largest one isn't a priority just a quality built product.

Also, would the local stores match an online price?

Thanks.

Look around the used section, there is always stuff in there!!

I was looking at the BRS units. Any experience?

I am still on the first one I have ever owned, it is a kent maxima, and it seems to work fine, honestly I think we could just top off with tap water since we live live in colorado.
I am pretty sure Mike at aqua imports does, or did, (dunno anymore, been a few min. since I have been over there)

Hoping to keep the cost close to $150 since I don't need a lot of water at a time.

I know some horticulture stores that sell cheaper ones, way to grow etc....., no R/O membrane in them, just particulate and AC, -0- waste, and very low TDS.

This one is on sale for $120, I have a Spectrapure and love it, but I have the Max/Cap version so I can't vouch for this exact version. I can vouch for the quality of their products though and customer service. I recieved my unit with some damage to one of the housings and I had a replacement no questions asked within 3 days. Now I have a spare as I am pretty sure it was just cosmetic damage.

It was also pretty easy to set up and get calibrated.

Good luck!

I have a nice 90gpd spectra pure I can sell you for 100 with TDS meter. All filters are pretty much new but it does need a new ro membrane which you can get on line for 35. I'm in westminster near 104th an federal if you want to chech it out. All be home all weekend

I might make my way down to Elite for the first time today and price some things out.

Looks like a good set-up. Gotta run errands, pm you later.

BRS makes very nice units.

 

[Walter White]

Yep and I think some one here has a BRS 5 stage with tds for sale in Loveland for $125 so that could be a better deal for him if he wants to make the drive.

Wally has one for sale 5 stage hit him up he posted in equip section.

I have a BRS 5 stage plus...had it for a few months and it works great, though my di filter seems to be going faster than I though it would...but I don't run mine much, which I'm told can shorten the life of a di unit.
