Yikes.The RO canisters are impossible to twist off without a couple of strap wrenches in my experience.
Unless I can find canisters that are easy to work with, I am afraid that I am stuck with the Twist-in system.

The only reef store around here is Aquatic Cove. We lost a number of them over the years unfortunately.Yes still using the same one here Tomoko....i'm hitting a few knuckles now and again to get them open But Its worth it to keep the Chloramies out for me. Yes, I use the proper wrench too. Maybe my booster pump pressures up the system more making them seat in harder? I dont know. Best of luck. PS- you know any good reef stores around Huntsville? Looking for a good selection of dry goods and additives. Thanks
Unfortunately, a plastic wrench like that one does not help much. We ended up breaking one after a number of years of use.Those housings are easy to open with the proper wrench.
Interesting, I've had the same wrench for about 20 years now. Perhaps you have just been overtightening... I usually go hand tight and then 1/8 turn with the wrench to snug it up.Unfortunately, a plastic wrench like that one does not help much. We ended up breaking one after a number of years of use.
My RODI filters are lasting only two to three months this year. I changed all my filters and membrane in March and they are shot now. Have you noticed any change in water recently in Madison? The last set did not last very long either. I am wondering if the problem is my Aquatic Life Twist-in RODI filters or the source water. Earlier this year Beaslbob asked me if our water tasted differently, but I have not noticed any change.
