![]() The water should not continue flowing after the container is full. the auto shutoff should take care of that part. If it is not it is either defective or you have it plumbed wrong.
Three quarters of the way down the link, is a schematic (simple) that might help you. I do not have this brand of ro, just use it as a helper. http://www.watergeneral.com/support/pdf/RO585.pdf Take the 5th stage as if it was the DI then into the 45 gal drum Delete the storage tank they have, unless you have one and attach it to the icemaker/drinking faucet And I agree, if you are using this unit for drinking, tee off the drinking water before the DI Last edited by hillegom; 01-14-2012 at 01:55 AM.

![]() After consulting your linked schematic, and BRS's install video, I think I see the problem. I installed my check valve after the auto shutoff valve. I would have thought that it would work anywhere inline on the clean water line. But now I see that has no way of stopping the waste water {slaps forehead}
Thank you for the info. I am off to tear it down. Wish me luck |

![]() Thanks hillegom !
It takes a full 100 seconds, but it shuts off now. And thats at 60psi. The system did not come with a check valve or float switch, so I can only blame me. But I must say even if it came with these items, with the instructions that were included, I probably could have pooched the install anyway. I'm still proud of what I have done. I wanted the ability to monitor the TDS of the Raw, RO and DI water, use or not use the DI canister, and monitor both the Raw and Filtered water pressure.
