Faucet connection for RO/DI?


Hey,
I just bought an RO/DI unit from a guy on RC, and it didn't come with a faucet connection. Is there an easy way to make one or do you know of a hardware store that has one? I looked here in Eau Claire, WI and Menards doesn't have it. Checked another local hardware store, none there. Also looked at a green house (could also be used for drip irrigation??) - nope still nothing. I am running out of ideas and low on top off water. Does anyone have suggestions??
As always - Thanks!!
David

When I had an apartment, I bought a quick disconnect that hooks to your faucet. It was a Home Depot in the plumbing section where all the little draws of connectors are. This was about 6 years ago but was about $8 at the time.

it depends on what kind of piping you have leading up to your faucet. I have some new threaded tubes, and I found that using a few different adaptors I could go from the 3/4 thread to the 1/4 for the RO unit. Ask a guy at menards, as thats where I got my stuff.
bring him a sample and/or measurement of all your lines, and im sure they will figure something out for you.
