That upgrade kit works essentially the same way I am working my system except I am using one 150 gpd membrane instead of two 75 gpd. The way they do it is "safer" for the membrane, but I'm getting more efficiency. Also be aware that you need 65 psi through your tap for the water to actually come out at 150 gpd whether you use one or two membranes.

Split the line after the RO. Run one of those lines to your fridge, then the other to your DI (which then runs to your RO/DI storage container). I'm not sure how the plumbing on a fridge works though...do you have a pressure tank for it, or does it run off tap pressure?

This looks like a good idea for you, but I don't think you would need the pressure storage tank for your fridge...? I would think if you need a storage tank that you would already have it? I don't know much about plumbing the fridge.
