    Hey all,

    I had my tank for almost a year now its a 55 gallon with a open top basically and the water I lose is crazy. I cant stand going to get water every week an filling up my 2- 4 gallon jugs. My tank is located in my room and theres no water source. I'm wondering where I can hook up his RO/DI unit. Any ideas would help greatly

    Thanx
    Adam

    Most come with a screw on the faucet adapter. Just hook it up in the bathroom or somewhere, fill your container, then unhook it. Or run a long line from the bathroom to your tank.

    I tapped mine in under my sink and leave it there. Fill my jug when I need water and I am done.

    I have it setup to run from the supply line from the deepsink in the garage, then the output is also emptying into the deepsink. I also have a 55gal water drum used and cleaned to store my ro/di water.
