Another upset with my RO/DI system though.... I had a vendor order me 3 replacement canisters for the RO side. Came in.... and the threads are different!!! They won't screw in to my BRS unit. The threads on these seem a lot more coarse.

These are now for sale... Anyone need any?? Cheap!

And my poor RO unit :-(

Looks like I will have to bite the bullet and order them for $20 a pop from BRS. And deal with the ridiculous shipping charges and the silly UPS wait times.... .UURRRGGGH

They didn't send new top parts? ??

That seems ... somewhat suboptimal...

For each one I've had to replace (a few now) I replaced the clear part and the top bracket it threads into (it's just held on the metal bracket by screws).

Yeah unfortunately Eli was trying to do me a favor and they did not come with the tops. I thought he was ordering them from BRS, but it obviously wasn't from them. They only come with the tops at BRS. But whateves. Just means i'll have to wait longer before using RO water. I wanted to water test with RO, but i'll just use tap water until the new canisters arrive.

Water testing the whole water changing system begins tonight!
