RODI

[dorinmoon1964]

Looking to add RODI system. Only have a 20gallon cube, so thinking of an under sink 5 stage system so we can use for general water use as well. South Florida water is not the best. Any thoughts on this? I see units in the $200 range at Home Depot that look like they would get the job done.

AquaFX I believe is a Florida company making for aquariums.

I'd reccomend this or any of the ones offered by Spectrapure, Water & Ice, or Purewater Club

Whoever you go with, make sure you're comparing apples to apples with regard to their membrane, any filters provided, and any included add ons (automatic shut off valve, membrane flush, connectors, etc.). Those little bits of plastic can add up and make a ok deal seem great or a great deal seem poor.

Thanks for the input. Decided to go with the AquaFX Barracuda! A bit more expensive, but the reviews sold me. Appreciate the honest advice from all!

Also, if your water company uses chloramines rather than chlorine to treat the water, be sure the AquaFX Barracuda comes with a filter specifically to remove them. The filters in my standard RODI setups do not.

Thanks a bunch! Looked it up and added the chloramine filter!!! Your a lifesaver.
