I dont own one but oem or compatible non branded should be cheaper. BTW I diy my own filtration system having used and experimented various media types.

Thanks!

I am using a 3-filter Diamond water filter (it is my 3rd unit - just ceramic filter and two activated carbon filters) for the past 15 years and it has served my family well.

Malaysia's treated pipe water is good enough to drink straight from the tap if not for the rusty pipe so the 3-filter system is good enough for me and we don't boil water except to make hot drinks.

I have a RO water filter for backup but the filtered water lacks the 'sweetness' of the Diamond water.

That's why still need filters - I can see the difference - no filter the water is yellowish, with filter it's clear.

Bro, waiting eagerly for your DIY setup and where you source the parts, especially the filters since that's the heart of the system.

Sorry about the delay. My diy is almost similar to this ...

Can ask what are the three filters at the bottom? Ceramic or activated carbon filters? Where can find reliable ones?
