the can will flex flat to the bulhead. I use one to hold DI water.

Thanks for the input. I also am using it for RO storage. I want to put a drain in the bottom and a float valve in the side. Thanks. R

I enjoy having 30+ gallons of RO/DI on tap at all times. I have a kent float switch on the RO/DI output and a valve on the bottom of the can.

Make sure that your RO/DI will not continue to reject water with the float switch off. I think some have that problem....seems wastefull. The LFS in San Diego I go to had an electric soloniod of some kind that would kill the feed water when the output is shut off.

My RO/DI does this automatically...it is the one sold from filtersdirect on Ebay.
