I have finally come the the realization that I will need a RO/DI setup.
Water out of the well tap is 7.8, FW tank has been giving me nothing but Algae problems, and I will be setting up a marine tank soon.
Plumbing is my worst fear in home "repair", and know little about it. How do people set up their RO/DI systems?
My understanding is that I need:
The acutal Filter aspects (2 to 6 stages)
a holding tank
a means of getting the water into the filter
a means of getting water out of the holding tank into a bucket for fish tank
a drain line for continuous waste water from the process
How do people set these up? I would love to see pictures!!
My problems are that I live in a 1 floor house with a well and septic tank. The wife will NOT let me install anything under any of our 3 sinks, and this setup must be done in the basement. My problem is that I have no way to pump the water UP to the septic tank drain from the basement.
How much waste water do you get from this? I am thinking of just having it drain into my sump hole in the basement. I would just like to make sure we are not talking gallons of water going into the hole.
Does the RO/DI filter stop working when the holding tank is full?
I would love to hear how other people with similar setups handled their systems!
Thanks
