    I was wondering if there were companies that might supply RODI water. I have a RODI filter but I was thinking it might be faster to have it delivered in bulk instead of waiting all day for the water to fill up and then be mixed.

    Are there other industries that might sell rodi water?

    I know I can get DI water from our lab at school. I have gotten it twice now, I just take my 5 gallon bucket to the basement DI faucet. If Im paying 10K a semester, Im getting some damn water if I want, haha.

    In TX I am sure you have Water & Ice type stores all over the place like we do in AZ and So CA. Most are RO only but the ones close to me do a very good job of treatment and get our TDS down from the 700-800+ range down to around 10. Granted its not RO/Di at 0 but its much better than tap.

    Why not get a larger membrane and speed your RO/DI up or add a Brute trash can so the speed is not important, it can make water overnight and shut off with a simple float valve and ASOV. I hate losing control of my water quality personally.

    I understand your frustration... I have to wait forever too, especially with the low water pressure here in Spain but agree with AZDesertrat.... I'd rather do it myself and be patient. After all, I invested the money into it but up to you. Hope you will find a place near you!
