If you've got the room under the sink, I've coupled reservoirs to double my
on-hand water. Only need it when there's company. Don't forget to harvest your effluent! Damn things waste about 3-4 times what they filter for use. I use mine to flush toilets, and laundry. I wonder if I'm the only one..... Tom Steve wrote:I've been using this Omnifilter Water filter that has 3 compartments and takes 3 filters, and I've had it for 16 years, using high quality carbon block filters. I also replace the filters every 6 months. Water quality is not that good in my area, so it's a necessity. I've been thinking of replacing the whole thing with a new RO filter. The thing that concerns me, is the size of the tank, and since it is only about 4 gallons, do you RO filter users run out of water? 4 gallons seems like a lot of water to use in a kitchen cooking situation at any one time, but I guess it is possible I could empty out a tank and then have to wait hours for more filtered water. Do you find this to be a problem? Any other things or problems that I'm not considering, that would make you steer me away from this kind of filter? Any brands substantially better than another? Thanks, Steve Someday, it'll all be over.... |
