r/o unit question with pressure tank

I have a CORALIFE r/o unit and a pressure tank. My question is the r/o unit has three line. Yellow, red, blue. Yellow is the feed line that goes into your faucet. Red is the waste line (bad water). So blue is the good water therefore i connect that into the pressure tank. But, the pressure tank only has an intake. So do I make a T there and connect one to the pressure tank and one into the sump.

Also i was wondering if any one has a flotec pressure tank. Does it has a stand for the tank too or no. I have tank and couldn't picture how it can stand up.

You shouldn't have to T anything.. the blue line is inlet and outlet... after the water is pressurized.. when you open the spikit... (sp) the water "shoud" flow out of the pressure tank and through a final stage in the filter system.. then out the spikit... at least that's how mine works.. but it's whoolpool.. but should be the same..

THATS IT! drinking water that has passed through the DI portion is un safe because it so stripped of vitamens. so the do goes after the ro membrane but before the DI

so if already have a 5g pressure tank then I don't need a storage tank for fresh water right. I guest i just need one for mix salt water then.

that's up to you... I have a 30 gal for mixing salt in... and two 5 gals to store fresh in... I have to replace 1 to 1.5 gals a day... so I just fill one up and use it for 3 to 4 days...
