Default Re: Evaporation ?????

Hello all, I have a 90gal with a 20gal sump. I RO about 25 gallons of water a week for my WC. The change is 20 gals and I reserve 5 gals in a 5 gal bucket with a snap tight lid. I top off with this water. My question is simple, since I got the tank, i've added glass tops...I still lose about 5 gals a week to evaporation. Is all that escaping from the sump? there is never condensation or such under the tank...I find this to be pretty incredible. Mike.
