Was running the 1/4" supply line through my sump for a while but abandon because of the pressure drop.

There is merit though in warming the RO. Cutting from here (Aqua-safe) "membranes are flow rated at 77F, 65 PSI and 200 TDS and for every 1F water temperature, the production rate will drop 1.6%"

Has anyone come up with more options for heating their supply water since this thread last posted? I just installed my new RO/DI and I was thinking of coiling about 10 feet of 1/4" supply line and attaching an 8W repti-therm heater to it.

Not sure if that will give me enough time to heat the water much...any thoughts?
