I think I may have simplified my life, well at least the saltwater tank part of it. I ordered a 25g (23' Dia x 16' H) Poly Tank from Plastic Mart. I plan on using it for the RO holding tank, and maybe to mix salt water in it. With the RO unit in the washroom, I was just going to run the filtered line 12 feet or so to the holding tank. Im now wondering if the water will be able to follow the line 12 feet with a 3 - 4 foot vertical at the end into the top of the tank. I ask this because there is barely enough pressure coming out of that thing to run straight down into a bucket. I guess time will tell, but in true jump in ass over head first mentality the tank is ordered, paid for and en'route. Im sure Ill just go pick up the line, run it the distance and see tomorrow. I was also tempting the idea to build some kind of enclosure for it so there wouldn't be this Poly tank sitting next to my DT. But then I remembered that this is all happening in my windowless dungeon of my basement office. And I am pretty much the only person that ever makes it down here (Most people get distracted at the 61' TV and sectional, many a lives that couch has eaten). So to hell with ascetics, not bucketing water all over the house wins. As if that was even a contest!

Doug when you have some free time I would love to see how that Tunez ATO works, Thanks.
