RO/DI good unit/deal?

[ceige]

I think it is safe to say the source is good but does anyone have comments on this unit? I think I will p/u one of these.

Or does anyone know of anything else that may be a good deal?

you can get a 6 stage from filterdirect on e-bay for around 100$

The one your looking at seems just fine too. But thought id mention the cheaper model with the extra stage of filtration!

ya, id tell you to come get it here, but we dont carry them. . and yes thats the one i was talking about.besdies, we all know that no sane reefer is going to a LFS to pay 200-220 for a 6 stage unit (the 2 we brought in sold for that much).

Not to hijack but is there a reason to put a carbon filter after the DI?

And if the LFS "saves" us $100 on a RODI unit then we can buy more FISH!!

So let me guess...
Should I get a new unit one of those fancy 5 or 6 stage ones?
Or will this work if I get a DI add on....

Do the extra stages filter any better or just faster...

I'm curious because I need to get my PO4 under control fast...

Also that add on Melev's said the flush kit was unnecessary...Is that really true? Just another great marketing ploy?

 

[eSoteric]
