Maybe a boat shop?


Military surplus stores, of course- lifeboat desal filter

Sadly, the replacement part is more expensive that the unit. Back in the '60's, surplus stores used to carry a variety of life boat supplies, including shark repellent (which makes a mess in a swimming pool, and has been effective for decades in keeping the sharks out), and deslainization chemical blocks, about 3/4" by 1" by 3". These dissolved in the water and formed a black sludge at the bottom, and turned clear sea water into sludgy brackish water. Not sure of the chemistry, but it looked and tasted like charcoal was involved.
