where can get it?

I imported it 8 years ago some 144 units, all sold between RM3000 to RM4000 a unit but it took me more than 1 year to sell. Only those appreciate and know about water bought it. One resort bought 5 units and one old man bought 10 units giving away to daughters and for his offices, his church, keeping 2 for his house. One dealer took 30 units to Sabah. One doctor from Sabah insisted I reserved a unit for her daughter studying in KL. great mother's love. After that I did not import anymore. The reason was this is not a mass consumer product and if I advertised I would lose money. Due to its price the sales was slow. But if it were RM2k then no problem for people to buy. It was tough to explain one to one. Also, it cannot be marketed via multi level marketing as it will push the price sky high like RM6K to 7K due to multi level commission. Already RM4k is beyond many people. People don't mind to pay RM2k for a simple water filter and think it is the best ever with just multi-carbon filters.
But I have a friend importing it at small quantity from time to time upon request by customers/friends/referrers. He keeps minimum 1 or 2 units before re-order 10 units.
I am not sure of the price now. Maybe still below RM5k because of the low markup and no advertisement. The units i imported 8 yrs ago came with 2 plastics tank, 2 stainless steel tank, 2 uv, 2 carbon, one ro two pumps and all the computerised sensors. Now the new model came with all stainless steel tanks, 3 UV, 3 carbon, 1 RO. All filter and UV and computer sensors are from renown companies. Sensors mostly from Japan, RO is from DOW™ FILMTEC™, USA, UV from Phillips. Carbon made in USA. You can open the covers front, back, left and right and top quite easily and see the parts including the sensors. It is made such so that service and replacement, if need be, be easy.

Based on the spec you mentioned, it was incredible, hardly seen in Malaysia. Could it be used more in commercial rather than in consumer residential?
Or maybe like you said, some places like desert could make good use of it.
NSF website seems to can't find the brand model of you referring.
Malaysian are not ready to pay RM5K or even RM4K for drinking water filter system. that is why you dont get to see it. But for RM2k even when it is only a partial system they buy. This is a complete system. You can pipe in, you can use air to generate water (rain water), it has carbon, it has UV, RO, 304 medical grade stainless steel, it use all renown companies parts and products, it has cold and hot dispenser.
It was used in desert for war unfortunately. Where do you think the US soldiers get drinking water in hot desert walking or even in the tanks for days and months? How many truck loads of water can they carry to and flo to the soldiers? They produced on the spot! Don't talk about desert. In malaysia if you play 1 half of football at in the afternoon say 3pm for 45 minutes when half break you look for water. You cannot continue the 2nd half if no water is given to you.
It is use in space station, starting from the USSR Mir. 1 liter of water is 1kg. One person consumes at least 4 liter a day. Need not talk about cleaning themselves. How much water is being sent by rockets to the station. Very little because they recycle it using this technology and this technology came from there. It is very expensive to carry load with rocket to space.
It is use in nuclear submarine. These sub need no refueling for 100 yrs. Water getting from sea need lot of filter. Get water from air and inside the sub is the answer especially during war time. Spore netwater recycle from human waste using ultra filter. If you think cut off their water supply spore got problem? No, they need no water from outside, they recycle.
Added on January 3, 2013, 10:20 pmJust to add, this is a machine, not just a water filter. It stop making water when tanks are full, it shows you how hot or/and how cold the water is. make coffee, tea? See the temp before making. It beeps tell you time to change filters. You can override it anyway. If flashes warning light when UV is broken and when 2 uv are broken it stop dispensing water!!! It recycles and refresh the water after long period of no activity. It tells you the humidity level at your home. It filter your house air, improve air quality at the same time generating water. Anyway, it is one expensive machine but worth the price of a good thing.
