Since you've confirmed that your water is chloramine treated, you will need two carbon stages before the RO membrane in order to protect it. Should only need one DI stage though, same housing as the pre filters. The one linked to on eBay with the 3 DI stages stacked horizontally is not only overkill, but very inefficient due to the horizontal mounting configuration. I'll reiterate that a TDS meter & pressure gauge are two items no system should be without. You might even want to pick up a handheld TDS meter & check your tap water before buying the RO system. I found one at the local WalM for just under $10. Should be in the aisles close to automotive stuff, where the RV gear is. They sell them so people can check the water they hook up to with RVs when traveling.

Right on thanks for the info! I have some reading up to do I guess haha
