I have an ro/di filter and I am getting ready to change all the filters out. I am going to add a pressure gauge but not sure what line to add it on. This is the pressure gauge I got. Thanks

Ok now I have another question. I also installed a ATO on my RO/DI and I watched the video from BRS I hooked it up but the part that confused me is my line coming out of the ro membrane then goes into a DI cartage then that water is my good ro/di water. Well I hooked it up coming from the last sediment filter into the ro membrane then the other side I went from the ro membrane to the di cartage. Well when I push the float up the water still comes out of the waste line. Hear is a pic.

I also changed all the filters in my ro/di and added a pressure gauge I put the gauge after the sediment filters before the RO membrane (what BRS said) I am getting a reading of 80 to 85 psi. I thought you should have it around 50pis. Any ideas? Thanks

I am thinking I just need to move it after my DI cartridge I dont think it is able to build up the perisher to close that ATO. Any ideas?

Well I got it worked out I just had to wait for the DI cartridge to fill with water so there would be back perisher to close the ATO. Still not to sure about the perisher gauge reading 80psi I know the filters are new but did not know it would be that much. Is that the norm with new filters added I never had a perisher gauge so I am not sure. Thanks

80 PSI is great. Lots of people have to buy pumps to get their pressure up to 80. Water pressure varies from house to house, so there really isn't a pressure I'd call "typical."

Good to know thanks again Russ I should not have to call you tomorrow unless I have more problems come up. It is nice to have someone so willing to help out!
