ro v. ro/di units

do most of you guys use RO or RODI units?

I'm getting ready to buy one and just started reading about. I want to do water changes more often and feel its time now to invest some money.

Any suggestions?

RO/DI. A 4 stage unit with DI will give you much better water than a 3 stage RO unit only.

I second that.

Plus, you can get unit that has a bypass valve for DI stage for drinking water.

I agree, and that is what I have, a 4 stage with a drinking water tank. I drink about a 3/4ths a gallon per day.

Re: ro v. ro/di units

I bought a nice RO/DI unit from Airwaterice.com. It only cost $150. its duel DI, and 4 stage RO. I love having it. I am frugal, so i shopped around like crazy. I see the differance when I use it. I recomend Highly!!!!
