To save water, will this allow siphoning to the outside and then refilling from the sink? Thanks.

If you can set it up to some sort of pump, or u start the siphon, by using you mouth to get it started it should work, I have seen a utube video and theythey siphon into the toilel bowl.

If the tank is higher than the sink you can use the system like a siphon, although it's rather slow.

I had to do this because of the pressure in my tap was not as required. And to answer your question, YES , its been working fine that way for us.

As far as I know you have to have the water running from the faucet to get it to siphon. I use my cold water only on full blast to siphon and then a mixture of hot and cold to refill. I don't know if you can siphon it without running water all the time.

Yes, you can just siphon with the tube without using the faucet attachment, then attach it to fill from the sink.

The instructions state "In order for siphoning to take place, the reservoir water level must be lower than the tip of the spike." What I did was set a bucket in my sink, and put the flower pots on the countertop around the sink.

It has a hose connection so you can set it up to drain that way. I've only used it by emptying the bucket every few days.

The siphon part would work but I don't know how hot of water you want to use since with the plastic.

Yes, it will work with a constant water supply from a hose. Just don't let it run dry.

Yes. The siphon hose just goes into a container of cleaner, or what ever, & sucks up the cleaner with the high pressure water flow to aid in cleaning. I just use plain water, so haven't ever used my siphon.

Yes. Our use is minimal - probably a couple gallons a day on average. When the system triggers the refill, it only takes a very short time. Once tank is full, it just sits there - no additional water waste.

I honestly don't know if it will or not. I use my pump to prime my vacuum then I drop my vacuum line outside the pool and use the siphon action to vacuum my pool so the pump works for my app but I also clean my pool differently and after I do clean mine I have to go back and add 50 or 60 gallons of water.

It does, I found out the hard way. The company advertises no BACK siphons but it will definitely create a forward siphon.

Yes. It depends on your sink tap. on/off button controls amount of water redirection.

Being below would make the siphon not work too well when you're setting it up, but it won't affect the pump.

While this is great at stopping leaks, I don't believe it will work in your application. The water would just find another location.

Depends on how good you are at plumbing. It can be hooked into any supply and discharge lines but by your question, I suggest doing a lot more research on reverse osmosis systems about issues like out put and waste. Good luck, it is a good price but you need to supply your own storage tank and spigot

No, you just place the stopper, as it is, in the drain and water will run through it. You can also run your garbage disposal while this is in place but make sure to run the water. I often use the scrapper on the bottom to scrape off debris from my dishes or food scraps in the sink into the disposal.

There are some siphon type of pumps you can use. I would suggest getting water off if you get a big rain.

Sorry, no. The water is discharged waste and all. It is a great tool though!

Sara - I seriously doubt that this filter would work for your particular application as it works on a "siphoning" principal which would mean that the intake tube would have to be submerged at all times allowing no air whatsoever to impede the flow of water. Additionally, the filtering unit must sit lower than the tank to work properly.
