Down the drain... BUT.... i suppose I could use it to water plants this summer if I can rig it up on wheels so I can get it outside... (this is assuming I will have time to water the plants outside ha ha ha...)

Default Waste R/O water

Ive have heard people plumbing the waste water to there Hot Tub if they have one. I imagine there is quite a bit of water that evaporates from a Hot Tub too. As for now my waste water goes into the ground
