Hi,
I have a 4 stage RO unit which I usually use a 10 micron pre filter and 5 micron and 1 micron carbon blocks, I usually buy them from airwaterice.com but they charge a lot for shipping, almost as much as the cartridges themselves. I was hoping someone might know a better place to buy them, I live in Florida.

Thank You,
Russ

I buy all my filters in bulk from Amazon.com. Its so much cheaper and they will never really go bad because they are individually wrapped.

Your about shipping from air water and ice especially if you live in Florida. Try this company for prices.
http://www.filtersfast.com/ Two of the better brands are Ametek/Pentek or KX Matrikx.

i am looking at buying my first ro unit - getting ready to get serious with discus.
The Filter Guys appear to have great reviews and some real good deals on filter replacement packages.heard their customer serivce is excellent as well.
just doing all my research now for a seet aquarium system fishrooon set up but dont have first hand experience on an ro source, but I am leaning toward these guys

Interesting. I bought my filters from http://www.airwaterice.com/ and I got free shipping. But this was awhile ago.
