Any water movement you have have from the pump pushing the water up and gravity filling the void. More will be from the sump as less restriction but you'll get some movement from the ref, plus you have a little head difference working for you as well.

I'm laying mine out very similiar and it's my project for today so should be able to tell you how it works, at least for me. I do have a problem, being a low max flow, but more do the size of interconnect (1"). Hope your planning something like 2".

On my ro/di have the output going to a Tee, one side is a float valve in the sump, other side to container I use for mixing water. Find the John Guest valve works well as connects easy to the tubing, HD carries.
Well my mistake with the glass but they said they can take 1/2" off for me. So not too big a deal.

I will read through your thread and see what your doing. It will help.

As for the RO/DI I am actually talking about how I can hook up the unit to a faucet that is not threaded. The RO until came with an adapter that threads into the intake for the unit and then threads into the faucet. Problem is, I do not have a faucet with threads. I would need something that just fit onto the faucet like a slip...if there is such a thing?
