Pet Forum / Aquaria / Marine Reef / March 2007DI units
MY RO/DI units lie horizontal to the RO unit. However, it appears to me that the water channels along the top and don't actually pass through the resin material. I ordered some more resin to see if I could pack it in there better, but are there any tricks of the trade. I'm tempted to just mount them vertically with the water flowing up. I think it would work better. Anyways, either my TDS is broken or I'm doing 0 ppm on the outflow. Next time I shut it off I'll have to switch my output/input meters and see if there is a difference. --Kurt Yes there is but you would be too stupid to understand them since your a friend of Tristans <<>> <<>>MY RO/DI units lie horizontal to the RO unit.

The RO usually goes horizontal. The prefilters, and the DI usually go vertical.

Many of the newer ones have vertical DI housings to help eliminate the channeling effect and also better contact through the media. My old unit had a horizontal DI canister and my newer unit has a larger vertical unit that works much better and less channeling. See: http://www.thefilterguys.biz/ro_di_systems.htm It will show the smaller units with horizontal and the larger units with vertical canisters. I use the OCEAN REEF + 1 FIVE STAGE 75 GPD RO/DI and although it costs more it puts out 60-65gpd and still has 0 TDS by unit meter and handheld meter after 4 mths of use Wayne only knows abaout the sh.t that he peddles in his dead pet store.....Why do y think he has to insist on a unmoderate forum as its his means of cheap advertising.....Wayne only knows one thing, well that is besides CArol Gulley and Pszemell. <<>> <<>>"Wayne Sallee" <Wayne@WayneSallee.com> wrote in message <<>>news:R4TMh.130473$_73.48285@newsread2.news.pas.earthlink.net... <<>>> The RO usually goes horizontal.
