BRS's 75 GPD RO/DI any good?

[Marcellina]

I am looking to buy an RO/DI system and am leaning towards getting the 75GPD 5 stage one from Bulk Reef Supply. Does anyone have any experience with them? I liked the Plus System bc it has a dual TDS meter built into it.

Is there another one that is similar to that one above that doesnt cost as much?

Thanks

Great Product

I have the six stage and love it. They provide great customer service and have helped when I was fixing a problem of my own creation.

I have the 4 stage and it's great. Well worth the money.

I have this same system. It is excellent. Easy to set up. Good customer service.

Thats great to know. Its always nice to hear good things about a company and its customer service. I

Is there a big difference between 4 and 5 stage? Also after researching units I think that having the tds meter attached is the way to go. Any one have thoughts on this? Thanks so much for the help guys!

I bought the six stage which I know is probably overkill. Having an integrated TDS meter in my opinion is awesome since I can monitor the incoming water as well as know exactly when I need to change components on the filter. I feel really good knowing that I have 0 TDS coming out for my aquarium and have removed everything that I can to help my animals out.

The 5 Stage unit has a second carbon block which removes addition voc's the first one doesn't. The TDS meter is a must, the pressure gauge is really handy because it will let you know when the carbon blocks begin to become clogged and the flush kit will extend the life of your RO element.

Oh thats great! I didnt even read that it came with the flush kit! I was going to order that separately! cool now I dont have to.

I am going to have the RODI system fill two brute can, one for top off the other will be my saltwater. I need to get a float valve for both right? I plan on plumbing them together somehow.

The plus system comes with the TDS, Pressure gauge and flush kit. You can probably get away with one float switch and just move it to the other brute can.

Ok I feel good about purchasing the 75 G RODI Plus system from BRS now thanks guys!

I'm surprised you don't already have an ro unit, since your such an advanced aquarist!! By the way, it is a very good unit!
