What water filter do you use and do you like it?

[CSRMUSIC]

What water filter have you bought and did you have a good experience with/ still having a good experience with it?
Im looking at Ro/Di right now but I am not sure what company or what model to get. It would be nice to have around 30 gallons a day. It would be only needed for a small tank and also for my drinking water.

Lookup Bulkreefsupply.com. They have very good filters for good prices. They are also very helpful if you want to directly speak with them. Hope this helps.

Not issues with my Vertex PuraTek unit in almost 3 years. It makes everything so automated.

I have the BRS 4 Stage Plus and am very happy with the quality and build of the system

[suzig]

i bought the most reasonably priced 5 stage ro/di i could find on ebay and then bought new membrane and filters as well as color changing di resin from bulk reef supply. :thumbsup:

[cakemanPA]

I use the Vertex Puratek also. I can make a lot of water in a hurry relatively speaking. It back flushes itself. I could not be happier swathing over to this unit.

I'm very happy with the one I bought at Bulk Reef Supply.

I don't think RODI is good for drinking water. I believe drinking systems are RO only.

i got a spectrapure 90 gpd refurb that i am quite pleased with.

as julie said though, you don't want to drink RODI water. it is too clean for consumption.

watergeneral from filterdirect on eBay for last 7 or 8 years for around $100 back then. The same unit is now $150 for some reason. IMO most units are the same, it's the media quality that makes the difference.

Air water and ice filters and membranes for me in a Kent marine unit. Would get a typhoon 3 next time around though.

BRS value plus, best price for everything it comes with. Really great unit.

[Reefahholic]

BRS 6 stage here. Happy with it..

+1 on BRS RODI

[phillrodrigo]

Not one person for spectrapure. The spectrapure 90 gpd refurb is one of the better deals on the market for rodi. 130$ for a pretty much brand new unit

[raybyrne67]

BRS sells a RODI and drinking water combo filter. I believe the drinking water is tapped off before the DI stage.

[CSRMUSIC]

wooahh why should i not drink RO/DI water?? you would think more pure water would be better.. doesn't an RO leave 1-5% of the contaminates in the water? with fluoride and all the other nasty chemicals in City wouldn't this be an issue to drink?

Rodi is considered "hungry" water. It will strip and dissolve vitamens and minerals it comes in contact with.

Also look at www.thefilterguys.biz

Fantastic customer support.

Yep, in fact if your salt mix didn't put these minerals back in your tank, all your livestock would be dead.
