Here is a picture showing some of the pieces.
This is Brilliant!

I have a DIY Kalkreactor and the top leaks unless you put about a roll of teflon tape on it everytime I open it. I have been looking for a better solution without having to buy something similar to what I have.

I found an old DI canister and decided to modify it using your plans but I cannot find the reducer bushing you use to attach the CPVC tube to. My Di unit is a a coralife DI unit from Foster and Smith..

Please help if you can
