Replace Or Upgrade Rodi Unit

[reef keeper]

I have a vertex puratek deluxe 100 gpd. I'm running 150 psi with the booster, which is crazy, but it pumps out around 120 gpd.

My unit is 2 years old, and over 2 weeks I do a 50-75 g water change and add 40 gallons of replacement RO water to my ATO.

I'm looking to add 2 more membranes, to get to a 6 membrane.

I'm wondering if I'm good to just add a couple of BRS canisters, to add a carbon block and another DI.

This would save me a pile of money over the BRS with booster, but at the same time, I only have one TDS meter on the puratek, which I dont trust. The BRS 6 stage has a dual built in.

What is your experience upgrading the puratek? Worth it? Or just buy the BRS and sell my puratek.

I would just buy the extra canisters and a dual inline tds meter

I think you should buy brand new! Ill pick the old one up for say $20?

Looks like you maybe missed a 0 there.

Hey @reef keeper , Just for info here, they make and I bought a Triple inline TDS meter. I believe from BRS. Ilove it!

I bought the single canister and a pair of their carbon things. Turns out I have wicked chloramines here in Hamilton.

I'm going to run 2 carbons. Also bought a couple of their DI refills. I bought some DI recently and I don't think it even made 250 gallons. Wtf!
