June 18, 201412 yr comment_551482 Hi all. Just wanting to know what you think. I am looking at storing my RODI water in a 20L 'Jerry Can'. The type bulk spirits and the like come in. It is white, opaque, not quite see through, but you can see the water level. Would this be ok? I will have my RODI setup to it. Does anyone have any ideas about mould growing or anything inside it? Anything I should be concerned about? Report

Anything I should be concerned about? Recently i was using one of those big 20l mitre ten buckets with a lid. Even with the lid on i was getting crud dirt inside somehow. I was storing mixed SW. I used one of those camping water containers that you are talking about a few years ago with no issues. Report

June 20, 201412 yr comment_551569 This is a totally innocent question so no one bite please. Why do people store RODI water if they have a unit? Why not process the water when you need it? Report
June 20, 201412 yr comment_551573 It's too slow if you need to do an emergency water change or are changing quite a bit of water at a time. It usually takes 24 hours to dissolve and heat ASW. Report

Like Godly says, it's slow. My RO/DI would only produce in the region of 2-3 liters per hour, most on good mains pressure will do more though. Report
