Is there any way to know when a filter has been depleted or do most people replace the filters with zero knowledge of useful life left? I mean I am interested in a system but only for drinking water from the fridge and I am trying to ascertain the yearly cost for a small system like that. Obviously if I only need to replace the filters when they are used up then I will save money. Is there a meter that can be installed inline that can inform the user of how many gallons have been consumed?
Yes, you can definitley use it for rainwater. I suggest this system. waterestore.com/products/hum-water-saver-75-gpd-reverse-osmosis-system-brushed-nickel-faucet
I really appreciate all your videos. I'd never dealt with ro til we moved into our new home, a couple of years ago. It was a Rainsoft, which I really hated. I finally decided to swap it out. Found a good one on Amazon. Other than having to change some fittings, it wasn't hard to do. I didn't want to put it under my sink. The tanks were downstairs. I found one video that said I could drain it upstairs with it being a pressurized system. That was perfect. Works great and I highly recommend an ro system, and also recommend watching your terrific videos. Thanks Gary!
Glad you have been pleased. I would have suggested this Made in USA, high efficiency, high flow Reverse Osmosis system waterestore.com/products/hum-water-saver-75-gpd-reverse-osmosis-system-brushed-nickel-faucet
I paid $220 US for mine.. I get readings around 3-5 consistently. I think it works great. It's usually just my wife and I, so it's not like we use a ton of water. I wanted to chime in, and thank you for the great info.
This is the one I recommend, waterestore.com/products/hum-water-saver-75-gpd-reverse-osmosis-system-brushed-nickel-faucet same one that I use for my family
hey my tap water come in at around 650 ppm TDS which is pretty hard , I’ve been wondering weather i should get a water softener or a whole-house reverse osmosis system that stores in tank. to me it seems obvious that RO is better because it softens, purifies, and decreases the TDS. if i install a whole house RO is a softener now not needed?
No, you will need to install a water softener before the reverse osmosis system. Have your water tested and send us the results and w E can make some recommendations waterestore.com/pages/free-water-test-evaluation-the-water-estore

Will there not be chemicals left in the pipes ?
This gets installed with it's own faucet and new tubing, so no, there won't be.
Does you system use all stainless steel tubing? Microplastics are now a known concern.
Can it be uses for rainwater or is it only for tapwater

I have high salt in my well water around 800. What would you suggest for the under sink ro? I have a softener btw.

@GarytheWaterGuy is RO system needed with water softener being installed shortly?
Yes. I and most of our customers have both because a water softener does not lower TDS or get rid of those contaminants.
good job men
Thanks! Please share video with friends and family.
You need to ask these questions first before investing in an RO for your family.
