I have just purchased the 24GPD Maxima RO/DI system from Kent Marine. I am currently in the process of trying to get my 100gal setup as automated as possible. Later this year I will be out of town for several weeks at a time over a period of six months or so and am trying to make the process as easy as possible for my wife .
Anyway, I am planning on talking to a plumber about setting up the Maxima in a closet behind the tank using the float valve/solenoid kit the Kent makes for the device to work as an automatic leveling system. Behind the back wall of the closet is some easy access to a water line for the input water. The problem would be the drain line. We don't have basements here in California so it would only be luck if a drain line passed behind in this closet area.
My question is: how much pressure is there on the waste water output from the device? The documentation that came with it didn't really tell and I haven't gotten through to Kent Marine yet. Those of you who have this: is there enough pressure on this output line to perhaps extend it and run it through some walls to get to where I know there is a drain? Likewise, how much pressure is there on the output water side? Any feedback would help me when I talk with our plumber.
Thanks.
