    As for the store prices.....
    .29$ is pretty good, .50$ still not bad,....both cheaper than CC

    I live on the other side of 281 from Stone Oak and can provide you with RODI as well. Just give me a few hours warning and I will start the unit up.
    Pretty sure that's .50 PER gallon.

    May be, it's been awhile and I've never picked up more than ten gallons. If so then I've been using the wrong figures to placate the wife about spending money on the RODI unit. Pays for itself in a short while.

    You know what, you're right. I remember there being a 250 somewhere in the conversation... guess that was per bucket.

    It sure does! Pay for itself, I would guess within the first year depending on the size system you have.

    at times i wonder if it does... i mean my BFS cost 270 shipped so im wondering how much water i have to make in order for it to be worth it ...
    but then you have to include how much more water you use/waste


    the only nice part is that i dont have to drive any were when i need water

    So now you can also calculate the savings in gas and your time.

    Yep. It's more about the time saved for me. Not to mention, not having to lug water jugs around. It's worth quite a bit to me, just to be able to walk out in the garage and get water... or deliver it to Rob's house... LOL J/K

    I actually prefer the "TXAV8R drop off service" over buying a unit or tracking around town with jugs!! :P

    Pretty cheap too...just a frag here and there. :P :P :P
