That being said, I'm in the process of adding a holding tank as the RO/DI will operate better filling a whole tank rather than intermitant drips. Also want to drip Kalk.[/QUOTE]
I cant open that link for some reason...but I have my eye on one from BR with double solenoids and run on a timer.
I am using a 75 gallon rubbermaid stock tank for a sump. This is what I want to attach to the RODI.
Glad to see someone successful with it.
Thanks!

Around $50 total...awesome deal IMO.

Yes...this is kind of what I have now. This requires a holding tank/container of water.
I was considering the level loc system mentioned by RealFish that tops off directly from the RODI.
