RO/DI help

[sferris1]

I see alot of you are buying your setups at purewaterclub which is what I plan to do. My question is this, they have a household section and a reef section what is the difference besides price (for 5 stage or 6)?

i got the 6 stage with the pressure tank. that way if you want you can run a water line to the sump and hook it to a float valve and you now have a auto top off. but with out the pressure tank it wont work. this is the one that i got.

cmon biffer you got anything?

They have quite a list for reef and household purposes which I can understand your confusion.There really is any difference,I've notice.Some on the list in both categories come with a GAC post filter for improving taste and odor.I would just get one that will give you 0ppm.Some of the kits will and some won't.All their units are either 100-150gph,so there isn't any issue there.

Don't forget a TDS meter.

Thanks reeffreak that helps I think. How about the tank do you need it to work the system? or is it just easier with the tank? As you can see I know nothing about these.

The tank is more for storing drinking water,But I'd think it would be great for the reef water too.

From what I've researched so far, www.buckeyefieldsupply.com and www.thefilterguys.biz have the highest quality equipment and the most included accessories at the best prices.

I honestly don't know the difference between the home and reef sections...

I ended up ordering the OCEAN REEF + 1 FIVE STAGE 75 GPD RO/DI from The Filter Guys. It's supposed to be delivered tomorrow! Woot! I'll let you know how it goes. I think I'm going to install it inline with my washing machine since it gives me a drain to dispose of all the waste water.
