We had our water softener for 7 years and the filter media lasted for 6 years. When it was time to change it, the softner released a brown dye in the water, that let us know it was time to be serviced. We had the filter media replaced and a year later the dye is being released again. The repair man says we need new filter media but I don't understand why it last so long before and this time it only lasted a year. I am wondering if our service man did it correctly last time or even if he is honest. Does anyone know anything about the Aqua Maid reverse osmosis drinking water system 5 stage unit? Is it normal to replace the media once a year?

If the dye is showing, its time. It sounds like it may have been done incorectly last time. Check all other parts around filter.

I'm looking for a good R.O. water filter that that doesn't require purchasing a replacement cartridge every few months. I currently use an Aqua Wizard, and I really like it, but I have to replace the filter every 8-10 weeks. What kind do you use, how much does it cost and how much are the replacement filters?

Wow, replacing filter every 8-10 weeks is too often. Are you using well water or city water. If city water, it should be every year. If it is well water, you may have too much sediment and in this case you need to change your sediment filter more often. Or best install a whole hole sediment fitler.

This place has one of the best bargain, have a look at it.

Also, there is much information on water filter and list of contaminants published by the government.

Oh another reason why your filter may get clogged up so fast is because you have very hard water, in this cause you need a softener... see here http://www.gtawater.com/assets/softener. htm
