ebay : 75 GPD H2O Science Reverse Osmosis RO DI system

[autoponicz]

as title said......looks like a good compact system.......
but has anyone used or have this?.....its a 4 stage unit but wondering if this will be enough .only reason for chooosing this one over other units is for its smaller size....

thanks for any info.

I bought a system from them before.They're alright I guess.I've got a Kent now but for a low budget system,not too bad except expect to change the DI often on that one.

For $4.00 more you can get this model from Buckeye Field Supply, one of our vendors. Notice how the DI Canister is properly orientated vertically instead of horizontally.

I know you are looking for a compact, but I thought I'd show you the one I got.

thanks for your replies evryone.......looks like ill pass on that filter...

i found another one on ebay that seems good also....this one also includes the john gues check valve(not sure if its neccesary)
also is the DI filter better when its mounted vertically?

how is the compact reefkeeper working for you awibrandy?

 

[Awibrandy]

I have no more problems ever since I got rid of the self piercing valve, and hooked it up directly inline with the incoming water supply line to my sink. And it came with the TDS meter. I would recommend it, KathyC also has the same one.

[reefman]

test your water with a tds meter to make sure its working.

 

[ssmtcarlo]

[DEEPWATER]

Go with the aqua safe systems ,you want regret it ,best thing on the market ,Low cost ,and the filter replacements price CAN NOT BE BEAT .Membranes are $35 to replace and the others are cheap

thanks ronen......system looks good....i will consider it

i stole this 6 stage kit from a friend of mine to fill my 50g..
but its temporary so i still need to get my own kit....also bought on ebay for a little over $100...

I’m really glad I found this thread – I may be getting one of these units in the neat future; my B-day is coming up and I think it’ll make a great gift!

Anyway, my question is, can such a unit be connected to a sink faucet and run efficiently or will I need to purchase some sort of power pump in addition?

 

[autoponicz]

connecting it to a faucet will be fine....but it will work way better with a pump.....im planning on getting a pump with the r/o kit also.......its suppose to decrease your waste water and make more pure water by 80%...that means lower water bill....and happy early b-day

 

[MVS]

[FONT=&quot]lol...thanks for the reply and the early b-day wish.

What types of pumps are available? So far, with the research I've seen, it seems as though they are pricy. Dr F.&S.com has them starting at $200!

Do you know of any cheaper models? Additionally, can they be connected to a faucet or are they designed for inline plumbing?[/FONT]

 

[badassapd]

i bought one off ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...MEWN:IT&viewitem=&item=160083721488&rd=1&rd=1


it is Great small and very efficient tested it and it is 0ppm.

[autoponicz]

you can find them on ebay also....
search for permeate pump or r/o booster pump and you'll find what your seeking

 

[MVS]

Thanks again.

I searched ebay and was able to find a pump for around $80 although, it didn't specify if it's required to be installed directly into the plumbing or if it can be connected directly to a faucet. Generally speaking, does anyone know how they?re installed?
