With normal chlorinated tap water, you can get rid of the GAC prefilter.

With a little replumbing you can change one of your vertical housings into a DI stage.

That's what I would do.

Shuffle the cartridges around so you have the micron filter first, then the carbon block then to the RO membrane. Run the RO output into the last cartidge. After that you can use a DI cartridge in the last chamber. Some people use the color changing Di resin, others use refillable cartridges.

Let us know if you want to do this - we can walk you through the replumbing and we have the fittings you'll need.
