    I just wanted to share a funny story from last night. I recently got an ro filter which I was planning ok running connected to the sink. Last night at midnight for some reason I got it my head to give it a test run. So I hook it up and get it running , and after about five minutes the threads on the Faucet give out and the hose blows off. I never thought aquarium equipment could be so loud and neither did my family who were all woken up by what they were sure was some kind of explosion.

    Brutal man. I just spent the last week redoing the laundry room dry wall. Thought it was the ro leaking at first but it ended up being a two cent rubber washer on the washing machine.
