Ato bucket idea

Hey guys I current have my rodi water in a Home Depot 5 gallon bucket. I noticed on amazon there’s an amazon basics laundry hamper which has a cut out for handles. I figure this is perfect since the wiring for my ato and go toward the handles (bottom since I’d flip it upside down)... anybody do this? The amazon basics one is a bit taller than I’d like so curious if anybody found a source for a smaller laundry hamper that they flipped upside down ... thanks

But if you flip it upside down it won't hold water

Sorry I should’ve typed this up better the bucket is still there but the hamper would just be cosmetic to cover the bucket

I use a 10g black garbage pale for my ATO. If you want to cover yours, no problem
