Question about RO unit care....

[Patman1]

Hey all,

Well...the tap water purifier is headed to the closet...I finally pulled the trigger and got a 4 stage RO/DI system with membrane flush and TDS meter for about $250 from Aquatic reef systems......its 100 Gallons/day, which is cool.

Just one question before I fire this baby up.....after you 'make a batch of water' how do you store the unit........leave it wet? will the water evaporate from the tubing, do the tubes need to be capped? just curious..

Thanks

You must leave water in unit. I have a shut off valve entering and I put one tube back in membrain housing.

After you make some water, just shut off the incoming water, that's it! You need to do nothing else, just don't try to dry out the unit or anything, just let it sit there. Good luck
