Hi, I currently came to aquire a CR-150 (I believe) calcium reactor. I seem to have air coming in to the chamber where the media is, seems to be coming in from the pump that supplies water to the reactor. What size tubing (inner diameter) is suppose to feed the reactor water?

It is the same tubing used for RODI units. It uses a 1/4" Quick Disconnect adapters so it needs 1/4" tubing.

Ok, any explanation as to why I keep getting air from the pump to the reactor chamber?

Most likely it is not air from the pump but CO2 that accumulates at the top of the reactor. If that is the case, you may be injecting more CO2 than the reactor is processing at once. You may need to increase the effluent drip rate or reduce the amount of C02 you are injecting.

Im dripping about 1 drop per second. could be right might have to dial up the co2 consumption. Thanks Carlos, you deserve a raise.
