Mixing Barrel - Salt Water / RO

[kevl]

Hi,

Could anyone point me in the right direction towards finding a 100 gal. mixing container. One for RO and one for SW. Non-leeching.

Thx!

I'm sure US Plastics would have something but shipping will be expensive. Farm supply stores would be my next suggestion. You may be able to find large water storage containers on craigslist. Anything that can be used for potable water or food will be okay as long as it's cleaned thoroughly. I know there is an olive plant thay routinely sells 55 gallon barrels for $15 around here.

Thank you - I've decided on going with a food grade Brute container and just rigging up a pump for easy dispense

This is what I did. I could not find a 55g Brute locally so I had to have it shipped. It was expensive but still reasonable. I now have a float valve on it hooked up to my RO/DI. I just fill it and put in exactly one bag of salt to mix and it's done. Super easy and convenient.
