RO/DI for drinking and reef

hyrumbradshaw · 01/04/2009, 01:03 PM

I am looking for a way to have my ro/di unit make water for my tank and also for drinking. I have read and heard that drinking di water is not the best. So i am wondering if anyone has a way of making both with the same unit and if there are any plans for doing this that I can look at. Thanks in advance.

Thats easy what you have to do is intercep the line that goes from the membrane to the DI and put a T with a valve theregoing to your faucet and thats where you going to take the water to drink
And the water passing thru to your DI is the water for your fish tank
