Looking to finally get an auto drip system setup in my home. I have some existing plumbing that is running over my tanks, wanted to get some opinions on here from what would be the easiest and most efficient way to run the drip down to my tank. I have a 3 stage RO/DI system that i would like to feed the line into before dripping into the tank. My plan is to have an overflow line from the sump that would drain to my sump pit on the floor to the left of the tank.

Is this a FW tank? I don't think i would use a RO/DI filter on FW. If on a well i would tape a T into that cold line and install a shutoff valve. On the shutoff would install the pressure regulator followed bu tubing and a drip emitor right into the tank. If on city water figure out how you can deal with the chlorine/chloramines before dripping/
 
This is for a FW tank, I was planning on switching out the RO/DO filter for a 3 stage carbon remover so that i dont have to worry about chloramines when dripping directly into the tank.
