Most units are a handful of bottles which contain filters that then delivers the water to a little spigot you'd put in the knockout hole in the sink basin, where people might put one of those hose/sprayer type things for dish washing. So, yeah, I guess that's point of use. Few people do their whole home. And you could probably bring it with you. Just unhook it, not a huge pain, same level of annoying as a bidet.
I start thinking about this stuff and it all seems complicated and overwhelming. Is there like a brand of ro filter that you use? Just a lot of options out there. Also, is it possible to install this stuff yourself, or do you need a plumber to come
I installed mine myself. If you have a shutoff (you do) and know how to do the most basic of plumbing (YouTube can help too!) then you can definitely do it yourself. Any brand can work, they're all basically the same because it's a commodity item like many basic plumbing things, so just pick whatever has good reviews, is affordable, fits the space under your sink, and has filters you can find in your area.
It'll basically just be hooking your cold water (and existing sink cold line) up to a T joint, putting the pipe from the T into the inlet on the RO filter, and then putting the other pipe from the RO outlet to the spigot included. If you've hooked up a bidet (takes maybe an hour), it's a very similar process.
Never hooked up a bidet but will look into this. Thanks!
