dweyant Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 I purchased a BRS RO/DI syste about a month ago as part of a group buy. I've made maybe 100 gallons of water with it so far. I started it up today to make a few gallons and I noticed that the TDS meter on the output side is sitting around 50-80ppm. Previously it had always sat at 0 (after the first ten minutes or so). I can't believe that the DI cartridge is failing after only 100 gallons? Maybe I got a bad one? Thoughts/suggestions? -Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+dapettit Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 Does it go down after a few minutes? I run my RO/DI unit for a couple of minutes before setting the tubing in my catch tank. I do this because the water sitting in the filters may have a higher TDS. Just a thought. . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 Hmm, that's weird. I purchased the same unit in January and my TDS meter has not even showed any TDS on the output side. I would suggest trying what Dave mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dweyant Posted April 10, 2010 Author Share Posted April 10, 2010 I tried running it for a good 15 minutes, also tried flushing the membrane for 15+ minutes. -Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+mcallahan Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 I'd call BRS, something clearly isn't right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
