i REALLY wouldn't hook your RO/DI to your tank. hooking your tank to a continuous water supply can cause nasty problems if a float switch fails.

You could instead set up the RO/DI to a resevoir that holds say 10 gallons, then top off from the resevoir into the tank using something like a tunze osmolator or a JBJ auto top off. cuts your chance of problems down in half...

if the JBJ/tunze top off fails you have only like 10 gallons dumped into the tank. if the RO/DI fails you have water all over the floor but your tank will be ok.

I just make a bi-daily chore of hauling water to my tank's top off resevoir (JBJ auto top off).
