That didnt take long

[MikeDeL]

Well I was just filling up my 2nd jug of RO/DI since I got it. It sure didnt take long to make a mess. I stick the hose into my jug, when I came bag I found the hose had fallen out and my kitchen floor was covered in water. :? I need to get to homedepot and get some fittings to hook this thing up to my shower, that way if it overflows no one cares.

Float Valve, zip ties. It nevers fails without one water seems to be on floor.

I use 6 gal. water jugs from Wal-Mart. They are in the camping dept.

I also have my RO unit on my back porch so that if the worst happens I just water my yard. I run the waste water line out into my garden. The only down side is that I have to disconnect it and bring it in whenever there is a hard freeze. I don't want to rupture a membrane or crack something if it freezes.

A 100 GPD membrane should make close to 4 gallons per hour. Keep that in mind when you walk off and leave it.....I guess you have just joined the flood club....Anyone that has been doing this for a while has been there.

At least you get to mop the kitchen, that should make the wife a little happy.
