    brute water station is typically a DIY project using a pump, a few ball valves, some pvc, and brute trash cans. The RO can be plumbed right into a hole in the brute trash can with a float to shut it off automatically. Something like this:

    This is my water station using the brute 36gal cans and magdrive 5. It will transfer from barrel to barrel to mix salt and dispense RO or salt water out the spiket or i can pump straight tothe sump on the second floor tank.
