Congrats on the new unit, you won't be disappointed. Just invest in a role of teflon tape

now i know why it's so cheap!!! purewaterclub.com also have a store on ebay.. most the feedbacks state the system have leaking problem!! only 98.7% positive feedback! i guess what you pay is what you get~~!!
@Gabriel: hopefully you are one of the lucky ones without leaking issue on your system!

The leaking issue is one that was discussed a few weeks ago and why I suggested a role of Teflon Tape. Some people have leaks, some don't. It seems to be a coin toss of whether one leaks or not.

yep, but you easily save a hundred bucks over the cost of one from somewhere else... even if it takes a short while and a $0.99 roll of Teflon tape, I'd rather have the extra $100

I got mine in less then a week.

I was one of the people who got a leaky one. It took about an hour or so to sort out the leaks. Still well worth the money. I'd rather have the extra hundred bucks in my pocket too.
