So after carrying jugs of RODI from my LFS, which lately has been far to often, I decided to get my own system.
I have a few caveats;
I rent.
L.A. has chloramine
My area has high silicates.
Because we are in a drought I needed to make the water in a very efficient way so that meant a booster pump and and extra RO stage.
Oh, and it had to fit under the bathroom sink.
This is what I came up with!
Two NOS Aquamaxx Puratek 4 stage,
A 8800 Aquatec pump w/ auto shut off
HM Duel TDS
800 flow flush valve
Secondary flush valve that flushes just the pre filters.
Misc. tubing and John Guest bits.
Total cost around $360 bucks and a day of frustration.
still waiting for the 8th stage to arrive, the Anion filter. Since the filter already came with mixed beds DI, will probably use that until the first one gets depleted then go with a Anion, Cation, mixed setup.
