I wouldn't get any replacement filters, you can find them easily enough locally. Definitely get a TDS meter, mine is inline so I know what it is whenever I make water.

Hiding isn't crucial, it's in my office at home so the wife really doesn't care.

Maybe I will set up a QT tank beside my DT and then I can have my ATO reservoir below my QT tank.
