Quick Connect/Disconnect

Will be using a 44g Brute to fill RO/DI water to, but will store the Brute in a closet when not doing water changes. Any idea if there is a 1/4 quick connect and disconnect for the tubing from RO to Brute? I see some John Guest style fittings out there but was hoping for something a little more substantial.

I know there is a lot of stuff out there for flexible tubing for fuel and low pressure waterline applications, not sure if those could be modified to work with the RODI tubing or not.

I personally just take the little keeper out of my unions and pull the tube out when I need to move my RODI unit or something, but I don't do it all that often and I could see how that could cause wear and tear issues on the unions.

That’s a good idea, might try that out. Still looking for a more permanent solution but this might work for the time being. Thanks.
