Looking for best RO/DI unit

wastedincome420 · 01-31-2002, 12:26 AM

I've been trying to do research on which RO/DI unit to buy. My LFS sells "Kent" units and was looking at the "Maxxima Hi-S"

What units do you think are good for my reef tank

I have that very same unit. Love it, no complaints.

You will not be dissapointed, I just but the 4 stage oceanus RO/DI for $199. Great service and a great product...

i use a spectrapue ro/di 75gpd and i love it..i got the little di meter thingy that tells me when its bad ..its cool

anyway,mostly ro/di 's are the same ,if anything its the filter inserts that count

just make sure you get a four stage or better with a di ,and youre in business.hth

I own the Maxxima Hi-S...Love it, had for 2 years. I hear you can't go wrong with the spectrapure as well.

They're all the same and eventualy you'll need to change the filters at that time you can try a differnt brand. Get the cheepest unit.

Thats some great tips

I think I'm leaning toward the Kent maxxima HI-S. I do believe that I have phosphate in my tap water so I want to make sure I get it ALL out.
Thanks for all the awesome help
