Do you recommend the filter guys for RO/DI systems?

[HornetMech242]

I am in the market for a RO/DI to fill my 120. (finally) I see the filter guys are a sponsor of the forum. Has any one purchased one of there systems? And what did you think of it? What add on's are a must?

And one Off topic question.

On our fridge we have a carbon filter inline with the supply line. TDS going in is 189 and coming out its 141. If i put two carbon filters in line will it take it down even lower?

i thought their customer service was great. i had a lot of questions before purchasing my unit from them and they answered them. i like my unit and glad i got it

Filter guys are cool!
Your TDS is pretty low off the bat.
If you buy A standard RO/DI from them you should be straight.
With your low TDS levels the filters should last longer also.
Get the DI you can refill.
The DI is the next most expensive after the membrain.
My unit is so expensive to change all the filters that I could buy A new one for the same price.Don't make the mistake I made.

look at melevsreef.com for his 100gpd 5 stage unit. Hard to beat the price.

Not likely, because carbon is limited in what in can filter out of your water. It can only remove particular elements like lead and chlorine, but not carbon or magnesium.

The Filter Guys are excellent ...

Yes.. excellent customer service!!!

They are great. I bought the Ocean Reef +1 awhile ago and it has worked flawlessly. I recently bombarded them with questions as I upgraded and changed filters, and they responded within that day to everything I asked.

I think they are a perfect match for you, the only other company I would use is spectrapure , for their awesome maxcap system, but that is really only needed for people with very high TDS (300-400 +) IMO.

Filterguys are perfect. Got my RO/DI all set up and picked up a bunch of frag disks and plugs.

Great product! Great customer service! It is a win, win.... IMO

Filterguys are awsome, cant go wrong with them

[PSam]

Not sure about their actual RO/DI units, but if the units are as good as their service, then you can't go wrong. I have a spectrapure unit, but I buy all my replacement filters from the Filter Guys.

[HornetMech242]

alright then, i guess i will be getting with them.
