Do you have any recommendation for external filter? am looking for low replacement cost.

sand filter is the lowest maintenance cost. Water filter indoor u r targeting cosway or water dispenser type like coway? if dispenser type, getting an under sink filter and a dispenser separately will save on maintenance cost as well

Eg :
1) Rental Scheme by most brand RM 100 per month, 1 year RM 1200
2) Under sink filter like aquaphor cost RM 450 for yearly replacement, hence u save RM 750 per year but you need to pay RM 2.5k for initial machine cost

I think he said that water dispenser which contain hot water and cold water for convenience use.

i just bought a xiaomi RO water filter recently online due to its attractive price. regretted now that didnt do some research before hand... some article even said that RO water will wash away your body electrolyte and mineral, how true is that

Who use panasonic water purifie. Cost about only RM209.. its safe to drink direct with it?

Refer to this:

Seems like alkaline water was not being discussed actively discussed here.
Having trouble to convince my parents not to buy a Kangen for 12K while Panasonic has its highest spec of ionizer selling for 5k.

So if I were to take alkaline water (insisted by parents who brainwashed by salesman, I surf through and see no harm having alkaline water),

I think the best set-up here locally I can have is to get, one Aquaphor Solo (as strongly recommended ) for 1st filtering process,
then a Panasonic Alkaline Ionizer for for 2nd processing.

Any comment?

Any decent quality outdoor filter below 1k? Today saw Intact at PWTC. They claimed that they're using 7 layers sand which is more effective than other.

No regret, minerals can be replenished from the food you eat. You can also buy a mineral cartridge and put it in your RO water reservoir to mineralize the RO water.
As for RO water wash away the minerals, I personally think this is not true. Kidneys control water excretion, it removes only urea, excess salts, and toxin. I don't think kidneys remove essential minerals from our body.

Ro water is pure water? Very hypotonic can damage cell?

don't worry, u are an adult, just take more minerals type food and take some minerals supplement if you are skeptical about.
but just dont use it for baby milk or some seniors in my opinion.

Get another filter, set the pH to 7.6

Hi

Aquaphor definitely is within your budget, with 0.1 micron hollow fibre membrane, carbon block with aqualen and low maintenance cost. Definitely a good buy

hello anyone know if i can swap my 3M Filter Cartridge C-Complete to become PFS2500-C-CN
currently I am using the c-complete cartidge in the CTM-01 model

also any idea for the unused new cartidge shelf life / expiry date ?

3M is good.

cannot fit, PFS2500 is their most exp model (new system costing RM3K). Moreover PFS is mainly as a prefilter, no carbon, hence not suitable as drinking water system unless together with DWS2500-C then it is a complete system

If buy the cheap CTM-01 and can fit a filter that cost RM3k, no1 gonna buy the RM3k

after 23 months usage then only replaced a whole new set aquahor filter....only two person consumption n both of us also out for work during day time, so i extend a little longer before change new set.

out of curious, i broke the filter cover to see what's contain inside, as per below pic...

u can c the plastic cover actually quite thick, n the carbon filter also very large.
