I just bought a 25 GPD RO/DI and I have a couple of questions:

1. Where can I buy the blue tubing? Home Depot? I need a few more feet to get the water to the storage container I want use.

2. I have not decided where to mount it. Does it have to be mounted on a wall? Can it lay flat or at an angle in my utility tub until I mount it on the wall? Basically, I want to start using it right away being a new toy and all.

Thanks!!

The tubing is just standard 1/4" poly tubing, you may have trouble finding it in blue but any color is fine as long as you don't let direct sunlight hit it If its milky white, it may lead to algae growth. If you do lay it flat or at an angle you might need to burp the canisters to release any trapped air, just move it around while its filling and it should release any air. If not slightly unscrew the housings until water fills them up then screw them back snug again.
