help on finding a good RO/DI

im looking for a good RO/DI (preferably inexpensive). and is it ok advice on where to put it. like is it ok to put it on a kitchen sink, or bathroom sink. (looking to try and stay away from doing any major re-plumping if i can)


also a a good instruction on a ATO, such as what i need to build one, what type of pump i should use to get it out of my water storage unit.

im doing this in prep for setting up my first frag tank. i just got my 40 gallon breeder tank and ik it will be a slow process from start to finish on this but once i have all the info/equip needed i will start my first build. looking forward to starting this project. ive done 2 saltwater fish only tank now looking to take one more step.

 

SpectraPure Water Purification Products , they don't come any better.
Take a look in the sale flyer at the top of their page fro some very good deals.
Spectrapure also manufacturers and sells several different ATO systems from basic to top of the line. Take a look along the left side of their webpage under "Liquid Level Controllers" and you will find them all.
At the top of the page under "Manuals" you will find the installation and owners manuals for all of their filters and equipment which explain how they work and how to set them up.

 

will do, i do ask ppl to bare with me ive been doing my research but sometimes its just nice to have other ppl input other out of articles or other such places

 

Spectrapure is about as good as it gets. For a good value you could also check out bulk reef supply. I'm running their 5 stage 75gpd and really like it.

 

BRS is not the value you think it is. Look at the relatively coarse filters which allow colloidal materials to foul the carbons pores, the dry untested RO membrane, the prepackaged bulk resin and the fixed flow restrictor for jus ta few examples of things that can be improved and are all addressed by Spectrapure and at less than $150.

this dude^^^^ knows whats up with H2O. and everytime its spectrapure FTW!! im about to pick up an rodi unit myself. and wouldn't even consider something other that a spectrapure unit.

 

i think he works for them any way if he does at least he knows his stuff and endorses it, i guess i have to save the money for it.

 

pretty sure...not. water technician, perhaps. spectrapure associate, dont think so.

AZ- you dont work for spectrapure, do you?

 

when i talk about a ato i mean one that dosnt connect to the system, whats going to happen is im going to put a 10-20 gallon water container and then have it pump into my 10-20 gallon sump i am making, 10 should be big enoughe for a 40 gallon breeder but i wana try to do a 20 to be safer.

 

thats what an ATO is. it can either be direct connect to the RODI. Or as you are doing, connect it to a pump in a container of RO h20
