Look on ebay for different size RO machines,
and operating instructions for that machine,
on the auction site.
Some RO machines have a backflush feature.
I have mine hooked up to a dedicated RO rez,
with a float valve so I can forget about it.
This RO rez, feeds the float valve on the space shuttle.
This may not be practical in an apartment.

I have used both distilled (sodium free) and R/O with no noticeble difference, I dont have the benefit of a ppm meter but the ph is about 6.5 in both when I get it ..

PPM for R/O should be around 0-30 and Distilled should be 0

I had to make a couple of trips to my local plumbing supply house
to get the stuff I needed to hook up my RO machine.
Hooking one up will require some tools,
and basic plumbing skills.
You may need to shut off the water supply,
and your landlord may not understand why you want to do this.
Or maybe your landlord will hook it up for you.
Just tell him your doctor said,
you need better drinking water,
to help you with your recovery/therapy.
Distilled and RO are the same.
They are just made by using different methods.
They are both pure H2o2,
although distilled is slightly more pure.
Distilled is made from steam,
RO is made by forcing water through a filter of porous stone.

Do me a favor and remind me to loko for this when you get it up. I may copy yours if it works out allright for you.I'll be building a very inexpensive aero system soon.. keep an eye out in the Hydro section!
