That's under 150

EBay has a lot of cool choices

I bought the 70$ one but it's leaking all over the place.

Should I go aquasafe, max filter, or purewaterclub

Need it asap

I've always used the air water ice typhoons. No complaints.

whichever unit you go with make sure you get a

Membrane flush valve
TDI Inline meter
Pressure gauge

and at least 4 stages
-carbon
-sediment
-Di resin
-membrane

Do you know what your tdi is currently out of your tap?

I love my air water and ice typhoon. I had to buy a booster pump for it. I need to get a new membrane cause mine is not putting out what it used to even after changing all 4 cartridges. There ordering and shipping is excellent. I put a order in and I have it in 2-3 days. I think they are a New York company as well

Thanks,

I don't know our tdi in Bayside. Would anyone happen to?

I wish this $70 joint would've worked, I have read people saying it was fine. I only have a 40g system so wasn't anticipating looking at pricier units.

The faucet adapter wasn't fitting well and the pipe" clamps" where they held in place were leaking and actually exploded when I turned on the faucet.

Perhaps I didn't tug tighten each tube enough, and I can find a better faucet adapter to make it work?

Does anyone have experience with these portable rodi units from purewaterclub

Where did it leak? At the faucet or the ro tube fittings? The tube needs to be pushed in squarely all the way in.

At the faucet and at the fittings. The gasket wouldn't fit so I put it on directly and it popped off after leaking violently. I guess my faucet is too shallow?

At pretty much every connection it was leaking. I could try reinstalling them but the faucet part...

Not sure what to look for in terms of faucet adapters when shopping.

I eBay msged them to return it.

Now searching for a new unit. Surely I can find a good unit with everything I need for less than 150 at 75 to 100gpd. All the units I see come with different things

So the ro membrane chamber housing is actually cracked a little. Waiting on their reply.. I really want to fill my tank already lol

I like thefilterguys.com, check out their site and they always respond to emails.

 

[beastium]

So after putting 2 o rings in, the faucet works, but the cap on the ro housing is cracked at the tip. I hope they send it fast

 

[beastium]

But filter guys looks legit for the next

Cheap shiz aint good, good shiz aint cheap.

Can't say enough about it. $129
Filters have lasted a year and still putting out .000 with the TDI meter.
