Filtered water

Hey guys. What do you save your water into after it goes thru your rodi?

 

[hdsoftail1065]

I use a 33 gallon brute trash can for the basement tank and a 5 gallon jug for the main floor tank.

My RO/DI water goes into a brute to be stored or transferred to another brute for mixing.

 

[Greybeard]

Yup. Brute containers, from restaurant supply.

I use 5 gallon food service buckets with lids.

This one is stationary in my bathroom. I then pump into other buckets i keep in my closet. Gives me enough water for my 55 planted and 40b reef.

I dont have the space for a more robust storage and mixing station.

Thanks to all who replied!

Right into a brute with float valve

brute cans are a great option and the size will depend on your system size and how much evaporation you have daily.

 

[Crabs McJones]

Brute trash cans work well. I have 6 gallon food safe buckets with water tight lids that I use for mine

I’m using a brute can with the rollers. I had been using 5g jugs for about a decade. Now I finally have a legit mixing area. Dustin

Did you make that stand for the 55? That’s cool!

 

[Fudsey]

Actually I had it. It's just an X stand that works perfectly.

I use 55g water storage containers.

That’s a sweet set up! I’ll take more pics when you get time! I have to wait till one of my kids move out to set up like that, or move! Lol

Lol that’s what I have for top off, I want something at least 10 gallo so I only have to fill it once a week

I use a 40g tank from US Plastics. I also keep the reject water (it's not waste water) in a 200g cistern and use it to do laundry. I have a small external pump and fill the washing machine to do the wash and let the washing machine pull water in the 'normal' way for the rinse. BTW, the big RO system makes 500gpd and the back up (on the wall above the big RO) does 75gpd.

I don’t have room for large storage systems so I just use 5 gallon water cooler bottles, these are super low cost, food grade and easy for me to store my RO water and very convenient for doing water changes in my two nano’s and 40 gallon breeder
