    Is there any Ro/Di units that can handle well water? I have read on several forums filters get clogged after one use. So if anyone has experience please with this matter please let me know. Thanks Kevin

    Not true at all. I am on a well and have had one hooked up for years. Temp and pressure dictate how much filtered water you will get from your R/O. Other then that not sure were anyone would come up with that. You have pre filters to catch the larger particles and such.

    Any model they are all the same really. I have always bought 2nd hand Coral life units and upgraded the Membrane to get GPD I needed. All you need is a flow restrictor rated for the GPD you get. 99% are all 10" canister style units.

    I run the waste water to floor drain. I hook mine up to my water manifold in my basement using a hose connector.
