I'm in the middle of another DIY project,it's a kalk reactor this time...here's pics
5g water jug from Wal-mart,came with 5g of water that had to be drank before the project began
I cut off the neck down below the cap and a 1.5" PVC pipe fit snugly inside,I glued it in with the multi purpose PVC-ABS glue,that worked great...I then added the 1.5" cross joint and then the 1.5" to 1/2" reducers and the john guest fittings to each side,the input has a hose connected on the inside and the input water will exit on the bottom of the jug which should help to stir the kalk,the other john guest fitting is the output and will be connected to my float valve in the sump,and the threaded fitting and threaded cap on top to pour the kalk powder in.....this will all be gravity fed but I think I could connect my RO/DI directly to it,if the cap will seal without having to tighten it down beyond hand tight
