I don't have an RO/DI unit yet, still buying from my LFS. I am researching so I will be prepared when the time comes.
How much waste water do you get per gl of good? I have far too many inside and outside house plants for that to be a problem for me, waste water will go to them, I'm just curious...

Alot. I never actually measured, but a 10:1 ratio would be a conservative statement.

I think my 75gpd unit wastes 5 gallons of water for every good gallon of water.

Thats 10:1 waste:good??
I take back the comment about having enough house plants to water with the waste....guess I could store it for that purpose though, this heat makes them thirsty.
