    You cannot go wrong with Spectrapure, they are the best name in the business with over 25 years in the industry. They offer things you will not find anywhere else like treated and tested RO membranes, absolute rated filters and custom blended reef specific DI resins.

    They come with a garden hose thread adapter which fits on a hose bib or garden hose and many laundy sink type faucets. Depending on how you intend to hook it up you may or may not need a faucet adapter or other hardware. On their main webpage they have a section along the left side for tap water fittings which can be added to any system.

    Myself I use a brass garden hose wye on the washing machines cold water inlet so I did not need any additional fittings.

    I do recommend buying a good handheld TDS meter such as the TDS-3 or TDS-4TM for around $20-$25 other than that they are complete.
