What is your PSi and tap TDS?

Either will fill it overnight, how well they will do the job depends on your answer to the above

Both will work on these figures.

The advantage of the 450 is that it will give you a lower tds output probably about 005-7TDS on this water.

The Merlin will make the water in about 3 hours but will be about 12-15TDS output. It will also need a sediment pre-filter and will be more expensive to maintain.

The choice is now yours!
