For those making their own RO-DI water, how hard was the set up? I’m thinking about setting up a system but seems a bit intimidating. Don’t need to go messing up my plumbing.

And when is last time you changed membrane

 

[woodyarmadillo]

I have a 4 stage BRS that I literally just pull it out of the shed and hookup to outdoor faucet and lean against house. Put away when done.

If you can install a garden hose it would be manageable.

Easy. I set mine up with a saddle valve and ran the drain into the drain of a utility sink in the same room.
You can also use faucet adapters if you don’t want to puncture your current pipes.

Extremely easy buy a system from brs don't play around with it .. also you don't know how often lfs change there's so that cam be a gamble

 

[ryshark]

Definitely longer and local to me! But like significantly higher price. I buy their membranes but BRS for the rest of the setup

Higher price but lasts longer and I think works better, I'm not sure how it pencils out in the long run. Talk about higher price, I also order their $45 pre-filter which is 0.2 micron. But I believe it last longer and makes the carbon blocks last longer too

Yeah you want it? 96" x 36" x 30"

Don't tempt me...lol I wish I could but not right now. Definitely a dream tank!

Thanks for the reminder i got a new membrane a few weeks ago and totally forgot!

50g barrel for waster water, 32 brute for rodi. Hooked it to the basement bathroom with a faucet timer because I made water several times and kinda flood the bathroom when the barrel overflow. Hubby wasn't too happy. I then pump the waste water upstairs to water my garden and for the toilet. I don't like to waste

I date mine every time I change them. 3-14-23 was last change. I'll be getting new filters next week to change them out. I try and change them every three months

Only thing connected to the house is the red line from the faucet to the RO-DI unit.
