Whered you get your Ro/Di filter??

hey there everybody.
I was just wondering where everybody gets their ro/di filters. From looking at ebay the prices seem to be almost fake and was wondering if anyone has ordered from anyone on ebay, and how the experience was.

Also if anyone can post any good, Ro/DI manufacturer sites, or places you ordered your Filter from. i wanted to stay away from american sites but maybe if its way cheaper i can get someone in michigan to order it for me and then reimberse so i dont have to A- Have to pay for customs, and B- Not have to pay alot for a good filter from canada.

Any responses would be appreciated

I got mine from Aquasafe Canada off eBay. Great service, and the unit has worked flawlessly since I plumbed it correctly. I'm pretty sure many folks here have used them and I've yet to see anything bad posted about them.

he was super fast about answering any of my questions as well, and pretty quick service considering the stuff had to come all the way across north america...

I got one from Aquasafe as well. There are a few mods that you can make to get optimal performance if it is not reading 0 TDS at the end. The first thing is remove the sixth stage as it adds TDS back to the water for taste purposes. Secondly, after 6 months to a year when you replace the filters from the first three stages, go with a 1 micron sedement followed by a 5 and then 1 microm block carbon. Your RO membrane will be protected better and will prolong the life.
