That is the definition of a proper watermaker.
That one is for filtering tap water (should be already potable) for fish in your aquarium.
I bet the 100-gallons means tank size, not production per hour.
And IMO not even worth researching further.
Rich at Cruise RO will help you build your own from parts, but a proper unit won't save you any money for the **many** hours just the research, sourcing parts etc will take you.
Just the consumable membranes cost many hundreds, and a good pump suitable for marine use, both effective and efficient, costs ballpark a grand.
Then a good motor, lots of food-grade fittings and pipe...
And as I said, freshwater is a lot more involved if you need that as well.
There are very low gph manual systems, but a good automatic one is $3K+
