    Default RODI filters

    I have one from buckeyefield supply which I'm pretty sure is the 100 gpd value series. I've had it for a little over a year and haven't changed any filters. Which ones need changing?

    Haven't tested it since I borrowed your meter, but it was between 1-2

    I hooked my guage up, turned the aqua on and it reads zero. So I guess the gauge isn't working....

    I picked up a replacement at HD in the water heater aisle. It was in the well pump section on that aisle.

    Man, if anything, I'd at least change the micron and carbon filters. You're risking the tfc membrane if that carbon block is reaching it's limit. If anything, it'll help prolong the tfc's life. I'm guessing you're not making that much each month if your tds is still near zero.

    I change my di resin if the tds starts to reach 4-6.

    I think I use the 1 micron sediment filter. As far as carbon blocks, just about anyone will do. I usually order which ever rated for the most gallons.

    Hm, didn't know you could get 1 micron at HD. Will keep that in mind for the future

    Sorry, I was talking about the pressure guage not the pre-filters.
