SO i just ordered a Typhoon 5 stage rodi system and now i have been thinking about how im going to store the water and mix it. Anyone have any pics of there system setups that i could look at? Also what kind of plastic is safe to store water in? I have heard polypropylene is safe. Any help would be appreciated.

Here's my humble but useful in cabinet station: I plumb from basement plant to the stand, one side is for top off, the other make up water. Each side has its own float valve so I don't have to remember to turn off the valve; there is a valve that I use so that the lime top off isn't continuely refilled that I turn on and off after the reservoirs are full. Top off is simply an aqualifter with a mechanical float valve in the sump; it's cheap simple and as fail safe as it gets, if for no other reason because if somehow the float valve sticks open, no more than ten gallons can dump in.
