Rodi unit sink compatibility

[Mcdonalds]

So I found the one I want to buy and I’m just wondering about the sink adapters and that kind of stuff because I don’t want to have to use the hose outside. What will I need to make it work with the attached pictures?
Thanks

There are numerous kits that have multiple adaptors for that type of faucet - of course its difficult to knwo which one to recommend because - we don't know which RODI unit you are buying.

If you have it - you can take your faucet handle - along with the RODI unit to a hardware store and buy the correct adapter though.

Oh sorry, It’s the 5 stage BRS. It comes with multiple fittings, but I’m just curious if they will work

I believe bulk reef supply supplies plastic adaptors to the sink for this purpose.

Oh ok - yeah - I was going to say a lot of them have the adapters in the kit. In any case - I think that looks like a pretty standard fitting - so should work.

PS - another issue - sometimes those faucets have flow restrictors (though usually in the part you are holding) - you might need a booster pump of some type to optimize your water production/consumption

Yeah I’ll look into it if it’s slow, but the first two sinks are the ones you might be thinking of the third is just your standard sink, the one without the detachable head thing.

The last picture looks more conventional to working with the right fittings. If not you may need to 'T' off of the under sink cold water shutoff fitting. I got lucky by rummaging through some drawers at work and a couple of orders from Amazon which got me up and running. I screw it on to my kitchen sink and fill the 20 gal brute or my 10 gal ATO at a time. I didn't want to do it outside also since So. Cal summers will kill my RO membrane in short order.

Agree - in fact an under the sink option may be the 'easiest' long-term (i.e. a t) - ( was not aware that they were pictures of 3 different fixtures - but I wonder if the second one looks better - Either way - there will be an option

BRS also gives you a part to connect on supply line to faucet, the faucet connects to BRS part. Pretty nice.

Does this one unscrew anywhere? Looks like it has threads for an adapter on it. It looks like a faucet hose/sprayer so it might also unscrew in the base. This is if you need to move the rodi unit to the sink to plug it in, if not i would just use the t valve maybe with an added ball valve right after

idk if the brs ones do, but my rodi unit came from elsewhere and did not.

BRS also gives you a part to connect on supply line to faucet, the faucet connects to BRS part. Pretty nice.

I would personally pick this setup before using one that replaces the sink aerator.
