RO shed

[jdj]

Just wondering if anyone could give me an idea of what size insulated room should be built for an RO. The RO is a springtech elite 1000. Thanks.

id say u would want it 3 times the sizze of the ro u want to have room, bigger the better, if ur going to are u planning on just having the r/o in there or the tanks to?

It will just be the RO in the room. The room will be insulated and heated during sugaring season. The tanks will be in a seperate room. I was thinking the RO room be 8x8??

Our 600gph CDL RO is in a room that's about 6x6 and I always wish it was bigger but it is big enough. Of course, the bigger it is the more you have to pay to heat it.

I was thinking along the same line Ennis. More room is nice, but it also means more space to heat. I think my best will be to put the RO where I want it and measure out 6x6 and 8x8 and see what it looks like.

Delbert my tanks will be inside but I want to build a little room for the RO so I can heat it easily. If I heated the whole building where the tanks are with an electric heater it would cost me a fortune.
