I’m sure this has been asked a lot before but if I wanted to split my washer cold water hookup to connect my RODI unit does anyone have a link to a fixture that they trust? Preferably I’d like to keep the sink adapter on it but if that’s not an option that’s ok. Thank you for reading and happy reefing!

Bonus photo always a good sign when you get boxes like this.

You'd have to get rid of the sink adaptor, but i've used this on mine and it worked great

And then one of these to turn on and off the water to the RO/DI

A garden hose y fitting and a Garden hose to 1/4" fitting

I thought about a garden hose y, I guess my concern was it failing. That’s a pretty simple set up though I like it.

thank you! Seems simple enough. I did my preliminary tank fill and ATO reservoir top offs out of the sink but the wife obviously doesn’t love that and it’s terribly inconvenient. I use to have it under the sink before I got out of reefing but a few years and kids later under our sink is packed!

Did the same, connected it under the sink and had the waste line tied into the drain and the product water line came out the cabinet into my mixing bucket. After I moved into my new home I had a finished part of my basement where I could put everything. She was much happier having her sink back :face-with-tears-of-joy:
