6 stage RO/DI (75 gallons per day). under the 2nd bathroom sink.

drains into 44 gal drum, located in the 2nd bathroom shower. Shuts off automatically when full with float valve. And in case the float valve fails... its sitting in the shower.

RO water is then pumped to another 44 gal drum, and mixed with salt in the fishroom.

Very nice. Really like your solution for valve failure. If it's not useful for showers it's more than adequate for your business.

Sarah wasn't exactly happy about giving up our "guest" shower, or me running R/O unit lines under the bathroom mats... but hey, if it pays the bills... Also had to put a seashell pattern shower curtain on there as well Razz

I can understand the shower curtain. I it was mine I can here the wife now. " Put the lid down and close the shower curtain!" And of course my witty retort would be "Yes Dear. bow "
