How often do i need to replace my filters? Should I get some spare ones while i get free shipping ?

I've had several RO and RO/DI systems over the years (3 hooked up right now) and I don't think I will ever get another that doesn't have a boost pump. The Vertex Deluxe Puratek has definitely been my favourite with it's auto flushing and other bells and whistles.

I can understand that you're on a budget but the time and water you'll save is worth the extra money.

It depend on how much you use it, but I would say every 6-12 months.

Thanks for the quick reply. I only have a nano 12 gallon. I am guessing I am good for years? lol

Yes you will be good for awhile. You can always buy a TDS meter and test your water with the new filter and down the road once it starts to differ from original reading change filters

Well they have a promo gift right now. It comes with a free TDS meter

I wouldn't get any replacement filters, you can find them easily enough locally. Definitely get a TDS meter, mine is inline so I know what it is whenever I make water.

Might want to get a water report from your supplier and confirm what the water pressure in your house is. This will help you choose the proper system for your needs.

Here's a link to some FAQs that will answer some of the more important questions with regard to an RO system.
