Can one get an RO system themselves and install it, or is this a captive
market where you have to buy from the major companies and pay big bucks?

Is an RO system overkill, or could one achieve the same results with a
couple of filters in series?

Years ago I did alot of research and settled on Everpure , Our
military, a few airlines, a few fast food chains use them. They are
quality metal brackets with long life cartriges of various types that
remove easily and dont leak, mine is maybe 15 yrs old. I think my last
cartrige was replaced in 07. Of all the units I looked at the 200 and
300 model removed more things and at a higher percentage than others I
looked into. I had RO and junked it since its overkill for my city
water and it wasted about 1.5 gal for every gallon made, so it was a
pain in the ass when I needed alot of water and it was always wasting
water. RO is good for crapy water but the filters are even more
expensive and dont last as long as Everpures system. To know if you
need RO or just a good single stage you need a test done, but if its
city water a single stage should be all you need and keep you healthy.
You city water dept should be of help
