Also added a Reverse Osmosis and De-ionizer to fill the HLT and BK. The RODI and accumulator tank together were about 100 bucks and were shipped quickly and well packed. The vendor was Purewaterclub.com and I got the 150 GPD 4 stage unit and the 4.4 gallon surge tank. depending on actual performance I may add a boost pump to raise the operating pressure to 65 PSI.

Price: $45.00

Cons: Seems to not be as well-insulated as I'd hoped.
Recommended? Yes
I bought this at Home Depot last year for my MLT. It's worked well so far, maybe the insulation could be beefed up, but it's sturdy and durable. If you have the correct tools then it's easy to convert this product into an MLT. I use a CPVC square manifold with this design but I'd like to upgrade it to a stainless steel bottom.
