Great unit, minor issues.
Application Area:General science use: dilutions, dishes, etc
"The system is great. The installation process was made very easy by having a representative come out and install it. Communications as to date & time were efficient. System is very easy to use. Maintenance can be an issue. The only downfalls I can see (after ~4 months of using it) are: it "squeaks" when it is purifying the water which can get annoying after awhile, and the final filter on the red EPOD keeps filling up with air and requires bleeding for efficient use. Overall, I can live with both of these....but I can't live without the system."
