so you want 3/4 ,3/4 to1/4" tee
Figure out the seat depth on your connector. It'll probably be half inch or 5/8. Cut out of the existing line your Tee body width - seat depth X2.so ignoring the fact I don’t know where the main shutoff is for this line…
would I just remove the section where the t goes, add the t, then good to go?
I would also get an inline shut off valve for the 1/4" RO line after the tee for times you want to shut water off to the rodi for maintaining it. It will come as one valve you will splice inline, just like the tee that feeds itso ignoring the fact I don’t know where the main shutoff is for this line…

Ideally, but there isn't a lot of room there exposed outside the wall.i like 3 shut offs, one on in ,one on out,last on waste, i turn all three on and off as i use.
keeps system primed at all times.
if cannot find ,shut water to house at main..DO NOT JUST GO FOR IT...gotcha. Also, how would I go about determining the seat depth? Is it provided when finding the tee you need or is there something I’ll need to measure?
also…I know of know shut off valve for the pex loop. And I don’t really even know what it ties into. Would you just go for it? Or do I need to do something like cut open the drywall?

On the unit itselfIdeally, but there isn't a lot of room there exposed outside the wall.
Don't cut that pipe, that we are hoping is pressurized to feed your rodi, until you know where the shut off. When I installed mine, it was easier to just walk to the street and turn the House offgotcha. Also, how would I go about determining the seat depth?

Edit: corrected. Don’t talk and type folks
That would be ideal.On the unit itself

Do you know where your main shut-off is? There will probably be a cover over it, there should be a valve there. I have a slotted T handle for mine but a set of vise grips work alsoAnything special you need to do if you shut of the main? As far as appliances and stuff?
