Would you link the filters please?

[@rajalubana9216]

Hello there, do we need to change the top 2 filters aswell, membrane and the other one. Or do we can only need to change the stage 1 2 3 filter

[@realhouseDIY]

The top two filters are changed less often. I replace them every 5 years.

How long does it take to fill up a gallon jug? Someone was trying to tell me that th RO 50 model will take 2 minutes for a gallon.

[@realhouseDIY]

Depends on the pressure in the holding tank, not the 50 GPD rating. If the tank is empty then that follows the 50 GPD which comes out to about a half hour for one gallon. If the tank is full... then yes actually 2 minutes. I just timed it on mine.

How often are you replacing the vertical filters?

[@realhouseDIY]

I'm replacing them once per year.

[@vegtamvanderveg]

can you tell me what material is the storage tank?

[@realhouseDIY]

@@vegtamvanderveg tank only states "metal shell" in the description. Water is held inside a virgin polypropylene liner inside the metal shell, and tubing connection at the top is stainless steel.

Does it have Prop 65?

[@realhouseDIY]

This one that I have does not have a prop 65 warning. However the company response to some Amazon questions state that some of their products may contain the warning.
