RODI question...
My RODI (3 stage BRS) is located in my basement about 5 ft. off the floor. RODI water drops straight into Brute below, and my waste line is running along the floor about 25 feet and drains into a french drain sump. Sump pump pumps waste water outside occasionally to water my lawn.
I'd like to get the waste line off the floor. Is it OK to elevate the waste line above the RODI unit by a few (~3) feet so I can mount to the ceiling rafters? Any problem with a few feet of head on the waste line? Could it damage my unit in any way or produce poor quality RODI output? |

3 stage RODI? Hmm. Are you do you mean 4 stage? 3 housings below the bracket and the RO membrane above?
Not a problem re the waste line. Have at it. After you move it, check your waste water to purified water ratio. Should be about 4:1. If not, let us know and we can cross that bridge then. Russ |

I concur. The waste output is "pressurized" so a 3 foot rise should be no issue at all.
