Turn your water off at the source until you can replace the knob.

Can you cut off main water source?

What do you mean when you say at the source?

If i cut off the main water source tht would be in the basement and it will stop my entire house including the 1st floor and someone else lives there

What do you mean when you say at the source?

Where your RODI system gets it's water. Mine is connected to a cold water garden hose spigot. I would turn it off there.

Where is your RODI system getting it's water from?

Run to Home Depot and replace it, they don’t close until 10pm

The red hose... one end goes to the RODI. Where does the other end go??

I will let you handle this one

My thought in an emergency is take the waste line from the DI and plug it into the supply line.not 100% sure about pressure but it should hold the water in the DI chamber

Edit, May need to clarify, take the back line out of the flow restricted, pull the blue line out and put the black line in

That doesn't really answer the question.

The red hose is the source water line... it is the line that provides water to the RODI. One end is connected to the RODI and the other side is connected where?

Ah, good point. If it’s b4 di my trick won’t help

IME, that valve cap can easily be put back on, and turned to open or shut the valve, at worst you can probably twist it with pliers

Its gotta be hooked to the main plumbing from the house water line. Usually with a crimp valve on the pipe. There should be a shut off there... and then the 1/4" john guest valve fitting is sold at home depot for 8$

Where does the blue line from the RO/DI unit go?

On BRS RO/DI units
Blue line is the water INPUT or SOURCE.
Black line is Waste water out.
Red line is final product water for the tank.

Follow your blue line to where it is connected to the house plumbing. I have to assume the installer would have sense enough to have installed a shut off valve of some sort.
Turn it off there
