yep thats right,i like to be the one putting things into the water if i canNo, Mine is 110 but who knows what is in the 110. Salts come in various purities. Municipal water supplies do not buy for purity, just price

cheapest one i found was on amazon for 120$. It is small and slow. Takes maybe 3 hours to fill a 5 gallon with my water pressure. But for what i need it works just fine. I mounted it in my laundry room and piped in to the laundry machine with a valve.yep thats right,i like to be the one putting things into the water if i can

don't waste your money buying cheap. I have an iSpring with a booster pump (Amazon ~$300), which increases rejection ad speeds refillcheapest one i found was on amazon for 120$. It is small and slow.

RO specs are similar to LED specs- over exaggerated by miles. Much depends on the volume of your storage tank. Typically complete units come with 3 gallon storage tanks, which will expel ~ 2/3 at a time = ~ 2gallons, then you have to wait for it to refill before getting another 2 gallons. Now a 500 gpd might provide a pretty decent continuous flow if you bypass the storage tankThey have hydro one for 500 that gets 1:1 and most get 1:4. If you're interested let me know and I'll look around for it. It does 500 gallons a day which is crazy but the 50 gallon I got only does about 20 in a day with no pump and takes for ever.
I would have got the better one if I had known any better!
@LaughingGrassI use the ro buddy 50 gpd 4 stage from amazon. It's hooked up to a float valve in a 20 gallon rubbermaid brute trashcan. it takes about 10 hours to fill from empty, but it is completely hands off. I think the whole thing cost less than $150 Canadian delivered.
On my second grow and I'm still getting 0ppm. I'm pretty pleased with the purchase considering the low cost though I do wish it was a little faster. The deionization filter barely lasts a few months. I removed it from the system and didn't see any changes in ppm.@LaughingGrass
I wondered what your PPM was after using the RO Buddy from Amazon as I am in Canada to and looking for a unit.
It has been a bit since you posted still running ok?
