    jeeze 114 PSI thats huge pressure, does your RO filter work properly and if so i'm guessing you're making double the output lol so rather then 100gpd its more like 200

    tank bracing

    i would hang it off the back but cutting slots in the back for a strainer would probably end up weakening iti'll probably end up doing it as an internal box, i'd just rather not see it and give it more of a cleaner look
