Just my .02¢

A good question! I'm still waiting for a copy of our town's water analysis. I have been told by my LFS that it already is a nice "mix" for SW (high Ca, PH of 8.2, etc.) but I want to see the numbers for myself. If I don't like what I see I'll be looking at an R/O. What do you look for when buying one? Are they maintenance/$ intensive?
