impur Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 You just need a 1/4" saddle valve or you can get a shutoff valve with 2 outlets to hook it too. All should be available at HD or Lowes. Just in case you don't find someone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WAVES Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 jordan I have some of that stuff laying around if you find yourself up here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impur Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Jordan what kind of connections do you have under the sink? Are the they flex braided steel or flex plastic lines with a nut on each end? Or is it copper tubing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drock59 Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 plastic....the problem is the local hardware store wants to charge ten bucks for everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impur Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 Ahh, well you can get a T that will connect to your shut off valve. Then your RO fitting can go on one side and the faucet supply the other. If you have the chrome shutoff valve, should be quick fix. Might cost you 20 bucks including new supply lines to the faucet. But it would last a long time and make life easy. I'm still lugging mine in and out of the laundry room (scratch) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyles Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 $5 bucks in parts from Jerrys or HD will get ya going, I have them in my garage too, but I doubt you want to travel to Eugene for a $5 part (Saddle). LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palani Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Jordan, come one over to look at what I got. It's a 5/8" T that adapts into a 1/2" in the T for the RO line and it has a valve on it. All in one. I got it for $5-$6 at HD. I've got that rigid tubing under the bathroom sink and I works out fine. Just got to cut into in, and once you leave you can just leave that fitting in there, close the valve, and buy another $5 setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ladiebuggy Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Hey Jordan, I bought Jeff's RODI system and it has a bunch of different attachments that came with it. You could look at what I am not using and help your self if you like. Just PM me if you would like to come take a look. Susie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladiebuggy Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 OK, maybe I should have finished reading the thread and I would have figured out that you already had it figured out. I guess I am always just a couple of days behind. Susie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
