OK - not really much to look at, but I've started to take apart the old RO/DI unit and am beginning to put together the new unit.



They don't quite make the brackets long enough. I have already had to drill holes and turn one housing at a 90 degree angle to allow room for plumbing.

Last night I had a revelation: I'm going to make a Flushing Station. I "think" I can salvage one or two of the old housings that I am replacing to make this. New media like carbon and even new RO membranes need flushed prior to being put into use. You don't want the flush water to enter other parts of the system. Rather than having to disconnect tubing and reroute things to accomplish this on the main unit, I will create a one or two housing unit that sits in the laundry room. Then all you have to do is pop the new filter into the flush housing and turn a valve. Water flushes through the filter and drains (either directly down the drain or into the washer). IF I can come up with two of the old housings that still work then I will keep a sediment filter in one of them at all times just to filter the flush water prior to going through the new media I am filtering.
