This is the one I have from them,
KMD eCommerce Crop.

bought thru their ebay store. I'm not really sure it could pump out 100gdp, but I do mine one bucket at a time. Not to bad for the price and the customer service is pretty good. I have had to order replacement filters and it's been up a little over a year now. oh and unless they've changed it, their instructions suck on how to install, so I made it work....

If no one minds, I'd like to throw a question in:

Are there any RO/DI units which do not have to be permanently mounted? I am looking to get one, but cannot permanently mount it yet. I need something I can hook up to the sink for when I need it, but then put away when I don't.

I have one from them and have been very happy with it for the money. It does exactly what I need it to do. I agree, the instructions are a little shaky, but these things are hard to install.

I highly recommend them for the price.

They have them at the site I posted it. Totally portable!


So, Cuttingras do you give it a go? I was thinking of upgrading to the package with the tank to have drinking water. Therefore, I would be using it on almost a daily basis.

could I swap out to 1 10 inch Di??? Wonder if this co. offers that upgrade...
I'll contact them...

I checked with PUREWATERCLUB they told me that they did not offer a large 10 Di segment for their units.

I asked them if I could customize and add a single chamber. Still waiting on a reply.

I am sure their double chamber will suffice thought right???

cuttingras,

I was thinking of getting the tank, I was reading that a more active RO unit doesn't need flushed! Simply because the water doesn't have time to stagnate and get old within the unit.

Having the tank my wife and I along with the FISH, DOG, and Cat we will all be drinking clean water every day.

How long did your filters last cuttingras?
