Max. temp for water into RODI?

[02f350psd]

Is there a maximum temperature for water going into my RODI system? Read warmer water produces more water so I didn't know if there was a maximum temp. (pretty much is it ok that I hooked up my RODI to my a hot water line?) Thanks!

NO hot water you will kill the membrane luke warm water
max of 80-100 degrees every membrane manufactor says something different

I dont see why not. If you have a sump and put a couple loops in there it could help to heat your tank also.

Never mind what I just said about i dont she why not. Keep it 80 but it could still help heat the tank.

How do I get 80 degree water? Figure hot is like 130ish and cold is like 50ish... do i need a mixing valve?

RODI takes forever to make in the winter time!!

72 degrees is the optimum temp for making RO

You can do this with a $5 roll of tubing, a bucket and an heater. put the tubing on the incoming line, drop it in the bucket filled with water and drop in the heater.
Not as nice of an improvement as a pressure pump but it gets you from a drip to slooooow stream

Somebody had mentioned using an anti-sweat valve to help with this in a previous conversation on here before...
