Had a few people ask how I have mine set up and a couple of pms, so finally got round to taking a few pics, it is nothing special by any means and pretty simple, but if it helps then all good.

I have the RO unit on the wall above the toilet in our downstairs bathroom, plumbed into the sink water feed and down the drain of the sink, the output then goes through the wall into a water butt outside on the other side of the wall.

Excuse the state of the downstairs bathroom, not lived here long and not got round to decorating it yet so its a bit of a state....

Will be adding a larger DI vessel and probably a pump soon, so I haven't bothered to tidy it up much yet.

Maybe 3 feet lower?

I feel for you mate with a PPM of 450. I thought mine was bad at 250 . ...Footy on now /emoticons/biggrin.png
Yeah it sucks, but so far coming out at 6 it is cleaning spot on.

 
Thanks for putting up the pics mate. :thumbsup: That all looks quite straight forward. Any chance you can send me some money so I can buy myself the same stuff?

No worries, and I wish I could mate, 3 kids are bleeding me dry, they're like a mini swarm of locusts.

 
What problem have you got PTWC
Well he has tap water @ 450 and produces 6 after the DI.

Whereas i got more filters Tap @ 350 and can only produce 4 after DI :thumbsdown:
