150 GALLON PER DAY WATER SAVER DELUXE PLUS

or

SpectraPure® 180gpd MAXCAP® RODI
 
both r on sale basicly same price
 
I have a spectrapure, my coworker has brs. They both seem like great rodi but I like that the spectrapure has 0.5 micron compared to the 1 micron of brs. I think you will be happy either way but I vote spectrapure
 
spectrapure is a 4 stage system, BRS is 5.
If you’re on well water, likely doesn’t matter. If on city water it does

Both will likely need a booster pump to operate correctly. Spectrapure recommends, or says , that only their booster pump will operate their unit. BRS just gives a psi requirement, which makes sense.

Ro/di units require maintenance. The water savings on a double membrane unit is nice, but makes more maintenance, and makes it more complicated. Imo unless you need a lot of water fast, get yourself a 75 gpd unit and you’re better off

My maxcap is 5 stage not 4.
 
Shoulda been clearer. At the same price point spectra is 4 stage, brs is 5. If you want a 5 stage 180 max cap, about $100 more

thanks i see it only has 1 carbon brs has 2
 
Sprectrapure's are way over priced... JMO

I'd go with:
Vertex Deluxe 100 gpd
Ice Cap "Smart RO/DI"
or
Vertex Deluxe 2oo gpd
 
i believe im leaning toward the
BRS 150 GALLON PER DAY WATER SAVER DELUXE PLUS
