Hello guys, I recently installed an RO system to standardize my water, and then I add minerals to suit my style profile. So far it's worked great. However, my filter operates at 1:4 efficiency: 1 gallon of RO water for 4 gallons of waste water. My question is, can use this waste water for cooling with my plate chiller? Any ideas, besides cleaning, on what else I could use it for?

I've heard folks run the waste line to a barrel of sorts and use it for gardening. Some use it for laundry. I'm sure a google search would turn up many more uses. I doubt it would be cold enough to want to use as a chiller water source.
