Rodi water

[TommyP]

Didn't really know where to put this but my rodi water froze outside and the faucet adapter I have doesn't fit the new sink or bathroom sink. Looking for an adapter to put on the faucet diverter sold by brs. I need the female threads to screw into the male threads already on the faucet.

Or some rodi water to hold me over till friday for top offs. Running low! Thanks!

 

[TommyP]

edit. I think I need the adapter that I need is the male to screw into the female that is a part of the faucet. Always get confused with this stuff. Thanks.

Hey Tommy

I am in Bergen Beach Brooklyn I am willing to give you some water, but I am not close. Let me know if you want to pick some up.

 

[TommyP]

Hey thanks so much for the offer. You are pretty far from me I'm going to try and swing by HD tonight after work and see if they have this adapter piece.

Thanks for this. I do have the faucet diverter that came with my rodi unit from brs but it doesn't fit on my sink. I need an adapter to screw into this diverter then screw the diverter+adapter into the faucet.

What about hooking it up from under the faucet? BRS gives you a black t fitting that threads right inline with the cold water supply. This is neater that hooking up to the faucet. This is how i hooked my unit up and its been working great. Just another idea.

 

[TommyP]

hmm, i'll look into that too

 

[BKLYNREEF123]

if you shoot me a pm with your e mail address i can send you a pic with the pieces im talking about. H

 

[TommyP]

Hey yeah I know what you're talking about just not sure if my dad wanted to tap into the lines under the sink.

 

[BKLYNREEF123]

gotcha! Good luck with convincing him.

 

[TommyP]

I'm sure I can convince him gotta find this piece now hopefully Rob can have the proper faucet adapter I need so I can just set this up temporarily make some water till I find out more of a permanent place to do this.

Take the piece you have to Ace hardware..in their plumbing section they have a cabinet (with fold down drawers- the best I can explain it..) that has all of this kind of fittings in it. Often you will need 2 that screw together and then attach to your faucet - with the piece you have.

The other option is the brass adapter that is used to screw a 'Python' onto a faucet also works for some of the RO units...if you know anyone that has one of those.

IMO a much better option than piercing a hole in the pipes under your sink, though many have done that as well.

+1 on not punching a hole in the water supply line. but the BRS T adapter threads right onto the water supply valve and right onto the quick connect for the faucet. It can easily be removed in the future whereas fixing a hole in the copper pipe is not so easily reversed.
