Hi guys finally moved to my new home and will continue with work on the tank, I upgraded my old Ro unit to an Ro-di, basically had 2 ro's and combined them to one, i went to my ro specialist, combined two membranes plus added two Di filters, tested already with awesome results of 0ppm.







AS for the ro drain I had the task to install it under the floor tiling straight to my shaft and up 2 storeys to my water reservoir on the roof as by law here in Malta houses has to have these kind of tanks to store water.

Pvc fittings have also arrived to papa with some nice valves bought from a local factory with some good prices as well

RO drain passed through conduit


40mm +20mm ball valves.

And unions and tees and elbows and reducers and a never ending list

Today also started to plan the plumbing and installed my Durso inlet to the sump

Process for installing the pipes, have to make some pretty good homework for what will be your needs

That T piece ↑ will be connected to that blue drum for the pre mixed saltwater which when needed will have a valve opended and new saltwater mix will be pumped to the sump in waterchanges, also this is the Durso pipe installed
