Title: Inline TDS and Pressure Meter
Post by: KLKelly on June 10, 2008, 12:28:36 PM
I need to buy two of these to go with the RO/DI unit I am buying.  The company only sells handheld ones it seems.

Any ideas where I can get a good price on both of these?

Anybody on well water use an RO unit? Do you use a pressure booster?  The pressure in the house is horrible.

I will have to add an additional sediment filter.  I HATE my water and my fish are suffering for it.

Oh and where can I buy a good pressure booster?

I did all this research last year and forgot it all.

Not sure where to get a pressure booster.

I believe Reef Canada can also get the booster pumps, they're just not listed on the site.  You'll want the one with auto shutoff on it, so that when your RO shuts off, the pump will also cut out.

Thanks I'll email them.

It does come with a shut off valve. 

Every time I go to buy an RO unit though something happens.  This morning my laptop won't turn on.  The hard drive light shuts out seconds after it starts to boot.  I think I'm cursed when it comes to water or trying to fix it.
