How to Set Up a BRS 4-Stage RO/DI System
Setting up a BRS 4-Stage RO/DI system is easier than it looks once you know where the tubing goes and what to check before making water. In this step-by-step guide, we show how to connect the source, waste, and product water lines, use the flush valve, check water pressure, read the inline TDS meter, and verify that your system is producing zero TDS RO/DI water. We’re using the BRS 4-Stage Value Plus 75 GPD system, but the same basic setup applies to standard Value systems, 100 GPD models, and BRS 150 and 200 GPD Water Saver RO/DI systems. #brstv Find the right RO/DI system for your reef tank at Bulk Reef supply! ➡ https://brs.li/BRStv_RODI_All Are you a Preferred Reefer?

Today, the team focuses more so on the second definition, referencing environments such as the Rio Negro in South America and plants that grow well in these unique places. Special thanks to Craig this episode for filling in last minute for Calder. We appreciate your adaptiveness and scientific background.
