RO/DI advice

[rbcjoker]

Two questions:

1-Does anyone know where in the Middle Village/Glendale/Maspeth/Ridgewood area I could get RO water? I don't need much (5-6 gallons a week), but my local supermarket only has distilled bottled water, and it's a $1.50 or so a gallon. Just hoping to save some cash by bringing my own bucket.

2-Looking toward the future, can anyone recommend a good unit for those of us in an apartment? I have to shut off water to the whole building to install any plumbing, and the plumber my landlord uses is admittadly lazy, and when we asked him about it, he did his best to talk us out of it. We're undeterred, and I'm handy, so could likely install it myself, I just need to know which unit to look at thats going to have the least impact on my rental apartment.

Hey Joker, PM me if your interested, I have a Coralife Pure Flo II that can attach to any faucet easily or hose line. Its a 4 stage RO/DI 50 gpd and it works perfectly. I just upgraded to a larger unit so I don't need this one.

you could get any unit that fits you budget.
you could get 2 types of feeds for your system. either a faucet adapter or a needle peircing valve(if the cold water under the sink you will like to install has brass pipes)

i bought my last unit from here

No need to make it more complicated than it is. Don't talk to your landlord, your super, or the plumber.
