Yes, it is a Typhoon III from Air, Water, Ice, but the filter choice is very different. I start with a 1 micron sediment, then a 0.2 micron sediment, followed by a .06 micron chlorine guzzler carbon block. This offers better protection of the carbon block and of the RO membrane. The RO filter is a BFS 150 gpd membrane, which is making 180 gpd at 99% rejection. Take notice of the booster pump; essentially it's a supercharger for the RO system. You can also see a nice TDS meter hanging from the booster pump. The DI filter I use now is a "silica buster" type cartridge. I'm trying this out for no specific reason other than to see if I can see different results in the display. I also drink LOTS of water, so having the RO only output is very beneficial to me.

I make about 30-40 gallons of water per week, so a high quality RO/DI system was a no brainer from the get-go.
