RODI unit

[ReefDad86]

Best place to buy an RODI unit? I bought the cheap Amazon special 4 stage (4 filters clipped to each other) when I set the tank up in December, looking for something like the BRS 4 stage 75 gallon to replace it. Are used units worth buying?

BRS had crazy deals during last year’s thanksgiving sale.. that’s when I got mine.. if you can’t wait another 2-3 months, used units can’t hurt, new resins will most likely be required and that will kill a lot of your savings off of a used unit! Don’t trust cheap RODI units, I made that mistake, rectification costs money and time both!

BRS has the 75gpd Plus with the pressure gauge/flush valve/TDS meter for $225 and the standard 75gpd for $180. Is the plus worth the extra money for the features?

 

[spuri87]

I got the plus version, really like it telling me the input and output TDS along with the pressure gauge, since you will anyways have to figure that out yourself to make it work perfectly (I think the recommendation is to have it run between 65 and 90 psi IIRC)

Thank you for the input. I’m just gonna order it now, along with a bag of salt. Found a promo code that worked and saved me $16

I purchased mine from BRS. It has worked great.

After trying different ones I bought it from here:

Not a place to save money though.

I've been out of the hobby for a while now and have couple units that I don't use (nor see any near-future use) they might need filters changed but if you are interested in one, LMK
