So I got the RO system installed. Not so difficult but I did come across one small "gotcha". I opted not to poke a hole in my intake line so I went to the Big Orange Box and picked up a tee fitting. When I tried to install the 1/4" compression fitting I found that it simply did not fit on the tee! With the hose and fittings in tow, I went to the other Big Blue Box cross the street and found someone helpful. We discovered that the white 1/4" hose that came with the unit is slightly smaller on the inside diameter than the clear stuff they had at the store, hence the brass fitting inside the pipe did not allow room for the nut to slide down over the pipe. 10' of clear hose and I was all set! Here are a few picks:
The whole set up out of the box with curious Layla..The thing is alot bigger then it looks in the photos!
Snuggly under the sink:
...and here is what the connections look like.
I guess next on the list will be my stand. I have a huge cabinet project I am trying to finish up before I can start on it but it should be wrapped up in another two weeks.
