Your best bet is to drill a small hole through the wall and move the pump to the other side...drill 2 holes in the lid of your holding containers...1 hole will be for the airline to go into the container...the second hole is a vent to relieve the internal build-up of the air from the airline...the positive pressure created in the container will help to prevent any car exhaust fumes from getting into the water.

HTH


edit...as for the RO unit, it will be fine since it is completely sealed

Good idea! thanks
