I will have to locate the outside unit about 40' from the inside unit. Will this change the SEER rating? Also is there any drain pipes to run?

I'm not sure about the SEER rating. There is a plastic tube that drains condensation.

The flow from my sink is pretty restricted, but the water is hot. It might work, but to be on the safe side, I'd go up the next bigger heater, assuming that you have access to the right amount of power.

I believe it will depend on your water pressure. I have run two drip lines from the unit. The total distance is 80 feet, 40 in each direction. I have many drip heads on the line, some of them are spray heads. I have no problem.

I put one in back in April. Replaced a different model. My guess is you'll need to make some modifications. We moved water supply and waste line. But it was minimal work and cost

No. The indoor unit uses gravity to feed the water condensation outside. This requires a hole from the inside to the outside about 2 3/4 - 3 inches in diameter at a slight downward angle. Through this hole passes all of the indoor-outdoor connections, the power supply and the drainage to the outside.

I used a length of garden hose that threaded on to the unit. It is about 15 feet to the sump drain. Works perfectly.

Yes, though it is a little short. We ended up attaching the hose they provided and then inserting the end of it in to a length of garden hose to create a longer drain line. I have to say, I love this unit. Does much better at keeping the humidity low compared to other units of various brands I have bought in the same size range. Also, quiet, less heat than many, and exhausts straight up so I don't have to worry about pointing it away from things and having adequate clearance.

For tall tanks like yours, I would take the tube down to within three or four inches of the bottom if you can. This will give a better top to bottom turn over of the water. I agree that going to the bigger filter (#60) would be a good idea. It's hard to over filter a tank. If this will be the only system working, I would go to the #60 filter. If you are running an under gravel filter also, then the #40 will be fine.

It's in the crawl space underneath the house now, but I believe the device's own cord is 4-5'. My electrician was able to add an outlet to an existing electrical conduit near the main water feed (which the coils need to be wrapped around). Otherwise, the unit would have required a 20' extension cord, which neither of us thought was a good idea for permanent installation!

It doesn't matter as far as the product is concerned, but if you have existing plumbing & you had a top mount & now are going undermount, might have a height problem for water in "P" trap & disposal unit, as we did.

I would recommend you get a filter cooler, and stay away from the RO models. it will be much easier with no ned for a drain line ect...

I don't know Ron. Mine are installed only inches above the waterline and discharge slightly above that. I don't think you will have a problem with the 3 foot head but that is just a guess. Good luck to you.

Already installed. Not sure exactly how far down the feed pipe is. But estimate overall length is about four feet..2.5 feet above ground.

Jason is my son and we bought this with his recommendation and wife's INSISTENCE (sp?). Ours also replaced a builders low end model; piping did not match but a plumber was able to adjust the existing drain piping in 10 minutes! We very much like this disposal - - have had it about 6 months and STILL very quiet. Can't answer the one for one part. Good luck.

as long as you can connect it, any ro system will work. they make adapters if needed but I doubt you will need any. if you do , home depot or amazon will have them. I have the air gap on mine with no issues. you will need a seperate air-gap , also on here for about 8.00 . the whirlpool one was a combo unit. the gap goes in the waste line, just be sure it mounted above the the drain as high as possible under the sink.

The venting is very important for the operation of this equipment. It must be mounted near an outside wall, and the distance needed to run the vent pipe is dependent on how many bends, etc. It is NOT included with the water heater and must be purchased separately. Amazon carries the vent piping that would work with this unit. I would check the owner's manual for the unit to see a better description of venting requirements.

I just mounted my RO-45 in the basement, replacing the previous reverse osmosis unit (RIP) mounted there, directly under the kitchen sink above. Needed about 35 feet of extra line to reach the floor drain in the basement. Went with 3/8" drain line instead of 1/4" to ensure that such a lengthy line would not result in too much back-pressure.
