rodi on ebay

This guy says it is reef quality but I want to know what you think. I think the price is what makes me wonder if false add. To good to be true?

I need a rodi system and money is hard to come by so is this a good setup for a reef tank?

 

You could pick up a 6 stage unit for about U$150 (or even less).

Check out the units from "Aqua-Safe" on ebay, or better yet check out "Air Water & Ice" right here on 3reef:

www.airwaterice.com Products and answers for your water treatment needs.

Spending anything more than the above figure is somewhat excess, IMO.

Good luck!

 

That is almost the same as the unit I use. For under $100 delivered it is a great deal. Remember, most of the RO membranes are made by 3-4 manufacturers. I see ads for GE and TFC on a regular basis. That is the single most important element. IMO there isn't a lot of differences in RO membranes. I've heard that the 75gpd membranes are a little tighter and have a lower DOC output. I'm using a 125 gpd unit and I normally see a reduction of 400+ ppm (Yes the water around here is full of junk.) on the input side down to 5-13 ppm on the output side. When I see 13ppm it is time for a back flush. Oh, mine has been running for 3 years on the same RO membrane and still gives me similar results as when it was new.

 

Thank you so much. I will order it now. I will be testing our water to see just how junky it is.

 

Hey if they have it and you can save on shipping get an in line DOC meter too. Most of these places have one for cheap. It is the only real way to confirm that the RODI unit is doing its job.

 

eBay: DM-1 Inline Dual TDS Monitor/Meter RO/DI/Water/Filter (item 280068535494 end time Jan-15-07 18:55:54 PST)

I think this is the exact one that I use. It is a great little unit.

 

I've purchased the same item and i recieved it few days a go. And it gave me more than 2 gph in 1 hour. I live in North Jersey.
The water quailty is about 180 ppm, after ro/di it give me 5 ppm (not bad for the price and i am glad with the result)
Now my water is clear than ever just like my fish just floating in the air.

best of luck.

Thanks Blade Runner, I didn't think about the monitor. I am putting it on my next order.

dydot...Glad that it is working for you. I can't wait to get mine in.

Thanks everyone.

Do I need a tank for a RO system like that?
