A good BRS one is for sale in this forum for $75. I went years picking up or getting delivery of water. Now I just turn on the faucet and fill the bucket in the tub as I need it.
I can make u rodi water for the time being until you get yours fixed, I live in Chelsea as well, and your house is a stop omw to school. I just need you to supply the jugs, and I can fill it up whenever
I'll confirm as well, Manhattan Aquariums will sell RODI water to you. When I first got into the hobby, I never thought to ask if they would deliver! Call them up and see!
You all in the city, do you really need an ro/do? When I was in the boroughs (now in Bergen County) my few tests showed water so low in tds it wasn't worth doing an ro system... I have heard people just using carbon. Have things changed lately?
