So I understand the process of the AWC with the DOS, but I am trying to determine where the best location to place the fresh salt RO line and also where to draw the water from. I have a RS reefer 250 with V3 sump. My thoughts would be to draw from the skimmer section and return fresh salt water in the return? Or am I completly wrong with this?

Don't have that specific tank, or sump, but basically what I do. Pull from my skimmer section(first section), then replace into the return section(last section).

I drilled a small hole for RO tubing right where my return comes in, clean and out of the way.
