Opinions on RO/DI systems

[hillbillyreefer]

I've got an aquasafe. For some reason they don't have the best reputation. In my experience it's been a good unit. I just changed the filters yesterday, I've been running it for 5 years. I know they should be changed more often. My tap water is around 1300 on the TDS and pre change the unit was at 83. After running about 30 gals through the pressure tanks and system I'm down to 0 on the TDS. That 83 reading was after 5 years of skunky well water, family of 4, neighbour who gets 10 gal/week and 8 fish tanks totalling about 250 gal. So she put through a ton of water.
