What size/part is this on the BRS RODI unit? I reached out to BRS but I know it’s the weekend. Basically mine broke and I need to make more freshwater. It’s the little push connection fitting for the tubing that connects it to the unit on the OUTPUT. So many sized parts on their site. @Bulk Reef Supply

Should be 1/4” in most cases.

places like Lowes should have 1/4 push on fittings ....usually shark bite (model 25433z item 835044) or john guest brand (home depot)...worse case a straight 1/4 pipe to 1/4 push adapter, a short piece of tubing and a 90...reduces the chance of overtightening the 1/4 pipe part and breaking it trying to get it to the correct angle

To get this done you could use a male adapter and a swivel elbow

If shopping at the big box stores make sure you get fittings that are tube size (based on OD), not copper tube size (CTS).
