http://www.melevsreef.com/ro_di.html <---the unit I got and where to buy it
I got one of these RO/DI units a few weeks ago. It was really nicely shipped and easy to hook up because he has a step by step photo instruction on his website. http://www.melevsreef.com/rodi_install.html
The unit itself is sturdy and pretty . For anyone that doesn't have an RO/DI unit and is thinking about getting one, DO IT! I will never lift another 5 gal bucket into my car. UGH just thinking about it makes me tired. Anyway, I bought a long tube to take the water from the unit over to the trash can i mix my water in (about 25 ft away from the unit itself), and it works out perfectly. I fill about 30 gals of RO/DI water in 7.5 hours.
The TDS meter (necessary to have IMO) read 000 after the first round...even though my tap water was reading 435!!!! I think the stuff I was BUYING at the LFS was still reading 6... so happy I finally bought this after over a year of stupidly buying from the store...
I just did the math, I'd get about 15 gals a week at the LFS at $.35 a gal... I spent $336 on water alone at the store not even counting the gas to get there ... anyway hands down best purchase for my tank I've made since TEK T5 lights last year
Great product and even better customer service.
