Picked this up during the recent Father’s Day sales.  Capable of 50 gallons per day.
Wasn’t happy with the single tank volume and dispensation speed, so I added a second tank and upgraded the output and post-filter to accommodate 3/8” line.

Before:
Capacity - 3.2 gal
1 gallon dispense - 70 sec from full tank
5 gallon dispense - 38 minutes from full tank
Filling system from empty - 100 min
Emptying from full - 6 min



After:
Capacity - 6.4 gal
1 gallon dispense - 27 sec from full tanks
5 gallon dispense - 3 min 23 sec from full tanks
Filling system from empty - 200 min
Emptying from full - 5 min



I know, I know.. tap water is “fine”, but my municipal supply comes it at 930ppm, and this system brings that down to a drinkable and enjoyable 12ppm.  Bonus: no more trips to the water store!

It does.  That is the black 1/4” line heading off to the left.  It just dumps into an adjacent utility sink at the moment, but I may plumb it into the drain with a saddle for aesthetics.  The sink also provides water supply in yellow, and you can see a 9v leak sensor shutoff on that same yellow input.

Edit - there is also a black power cord on the upright of the shelf, not that.

Got it, what kind of ratio are you getting? My system is supposed do do 1:3-4. So for every 1L of RO water 3-4L of waste water.

In reality though it's more like 1:10

Hey nocap, just wondering... what's a water store? Like a store that sells exclusively water? That's some next-gen capitalist hellscape where a store like that can thrive

Usually some super new-age hippy type store funded 100% by weed $.  They sell mainly water and water accessories but also crystals and chakra stickers. You can usually score a 1 gallon glass jug for about 20$. Talk about money laundering

figures your area would have some shit like that

no idea about this.  out here gallons run $0.25 and you fill your own jugs

what you describe does sounds like money laundering though

Figured it was time considering steam has been shooting out from underneath the lid. I've had to shimmy the lid while building pressure to prevent my kitchen from turning into a sauna

I just bought one today bc my presto finally wouldn't build pressure.

However, the diameter is too large Anybody have this issue? What do I do to make this work?
