FishyFishy! will become famous soon enough
Default Bad day - RO unit apparently had water in it over the winter...

I had my 6 Stage BRS RO/DI unit in my garage over the winter in a rubbermaid tote.... not being used for the past year I assumed it was dry inside.... NOPE!! the main three canisters froze and exploded...







The only good new today... is that my two DI canisters are fine.




FML! Thats a good $300 down the drain. I just e-mailed BRS to see if they will send me some replacement canisters. But then I have to deal with their ridiculous shipping... GERRR

I don't know from BRS ro/di units, but there is a chance they use standard cartridge containers, if so you could pick up replacements at Home Depot or some such.

What size are your clear cannisters? I'm pretty sure I have a bunch of extra kicking around that I'd be happy to give you.
