Larger pressure tank for RO water
Does anybody know where one can buy a larger (10 gallon or so) pressure tank to store RO water in? I would like to get a bigger one that has higher psi. I know they sell pressure tanks at the hardware stores, but the inlets on them are too big for standard RO tubing.
Thanks.

RO DI tanks
Steve,
Not only are the fittings the wrong size, but the materials of contruction are wrong. The RO/DI water will eat those tanks. The only metal you should use is Stainless Steal. All else needs to be food grade plastics only. I have seen copper pipes dissolve in 1 years time. All that copper went somewhere. It is so easy to forget about this. We have had customers call going crazy out about high TDS in their "storage tanks" . Only to find out they used a trash can (non food grade) and it was melting. The TDS was higher then their incoming water, and it was nasty things that had "dissolved" .
