    The DI canister does not have to be physically seperated from the rest of the system, thats just for visual purposes in the schematic. The 1 psi check valve mechanically or hydraulically isolates it from the pressurized drinking water system. Its easy to install a small tee and check valve in the 1/4" tubing after the RO membrane but before the DI which is what it illustrates.

    Its actually better if they are all mounted to the same bracket as the MaxPure is, seperate canisters and brackets are a PITA.
