Any member here an electrician or plumber? Or have a good contact?

Electrician: Looking to add 4 separate 20amp lines. (I have the breakers and wire. Need pro installer) If someone knows or is an electrician please pm me info

Plumber: I need to move my spectrapure ro/di setup. Currently it's under a sink. Need to move it to garage and add it to my soft water line. Pm me if you got a hook up.

Thanks!
 
You might not need a plumber for your RO/DI.I have mine plumbed in the laundry room, with the feed water coming from the cold water inlet to the washing machine ( it should be getting softened water) and the RO/DI waste going to the washing machine drain

+1 I'm doing the same thing I ran lines through the wall to the garage for storage
 
I suppose I can set it up in laundry room. Although I have no idea how to do this myself. Guess I have some research to do..

after looking up info all I need is this y fitting with a jaco hose connection huh?

Very easy setup. One initial question.
What do you use to control the ro/di? (ie. do you have a float valve hooked up to a solenoid, is it a mechanical shutoff, etc.).
If you use an electrical solenoid, you need to ensure that you have an outlet nearby.
Get a Tee for your cold water washing machine hose. Hook up one part of the Tee to your washing machine and the other one to your RO unit using an adapter. (They have these at HD and Lowes). Put gray water output into slop sink or washing machine drain, put RO/DI output into whatever vessel will hold the water. Turn it on.

I've always found that the hardest part of setting up an RO/DI unit is making sure all of the hoses are correct. If that's already done, the job is very simple.
 
I have 2 floats in storage tanks. Already got it setup. Thanks all!Now for an electrician! Need 4 separate 20 amp lines. Ugh
 
That's quite a bit of juice. Just out of curiosity, what are you doing with all of it. Usually, you run 15 amp lines for just about everything. By way of example, I'm running my entire setup off of one 15 amp circuit and I don't think with the lights blazing, I've ever exceeded about 8 amps.
 
I only need 2 lines really. But I like to add extras just incase. I have a boat load of equipment for new 600g build. I'll have a build log eventually and you'll see why all the juice 👍
