RO/DI QUESTION

Fesso · #1 10-07-2013, 08:07 PM

If you don't want to worry (or care) about the water pressure or the quality of your tap water before an RODI unit the Vertex Puratek 100 GPD is the best bang for the buck. It has a pressure gauge, booster pump and TDS meter built in. It also has other nice features like automatic flushing.
I live in an split level house and don't have access to the water line or space to plumb the unit in so I just pull my unit out of the closet and make water once a week attaching it to the kitchen sink. Very simple.
I found my unit used for about $150.

Thanks for the heads up! I am the same...I dont want to deal with tapping into my pipes and such so I was thinking the same.
Hubs is about to go away again so this will continue to be a work in progress until we figure something out. Have been keeping an eye on kijiji to see if someone is needing to rehome theirs lol

in no rush...so i dont mind waiting.

Pretty much any brand RODI system can be hooked up to your tap without having to cut into pipes. All you need is the adapter.

Scroll down a bit & there are all kinds of flavours of adapters. You might be able to find something like them locally, but it usually takes some searching in a specialty hardware or plumbing shop!
