Has anyone seen the 110 GPD RO/RI 6 stage filtering units on e-bay ? They are going for about $110. I've seen them being offered for awhile now. Been looking for one and was wondering if anyone has an opinion on these.

sounds like the same company i received mine from in vancouver. Be prepared for a few add ons tho like a pre-filter and pressure regulator and... and...

they deliver the goods tho and provide pretty good follow up services.

Thanks Kris for the link, yes thats one of them. Liked the idea that they're from B.C. Did I notice Deb(EmilyB) as a highest bidder so far on that one :biggrin:

I just e-mailed them direct and was able to get a better price, cheaper shipping. They said due to being local (but they still had to ship) it was cheaper. Fast shipping aswell = just have to hook it all up today hmmm better buy some beer and get more towels -

:lol: , no I kinda let it go when I realized it wasn't an RO/DI.

I was looking over the other units they have in their auctions and I just wasn't too sure. I mean I have an RO/DI, it's just that it needs new filters (including the membrane :eek: ).

I have had my 75 gpd (what they used to sell) for almost a year now. It's great, was cake to install (I modified the insallation to fit my needs). I think I should change the filters now that I think about it (I bought the replacement filters too).

A big thumbs up.

Just set up my new 75 gpd ro/di last week and am very happy with it so far. Took a 5 gal jug for drinking water camping and was very happy I did. No tap water taste or smell. My brother in-law is a plumber so he modified it for me, and it was easy to set up.

This is the one that I got off of ebay. It is a 6 stage ro/di and has been working great for the last 8 months. I also have a TDS meter to tell me when the filters need replacing. So far everything is good. This unit takes my tap water from about 260ppm to 7ppm total disolved solids.

I couldn't find anything this affordable locally. HTH
