John do yourself a favor and get kevin to bring in a timer switch for your rodi unit too. I had 2 incidents involving overflowing rodi water in my laundry room until I got one. No problems since

I use one of these in my RO/DI reservoir in the basement.

Does a good job of cutting the water. Although, I wouldn't rely on it 100% of the time. If you know you don't need to make RO/DI for a period of time, it is best to completely shut off the supply water to the RO/DI. This will prolong the life of the filters.

+1. Use the float valve shutoff as a flood preventer when filling a reservoir, but don't use a float valve shutoff kit to regulate the RO/DI full-time. That's a lesson I needed 3 RO membranes to learn.
