Hi Randy, I have a question to bounce off you.
I have had an issue for some time and tried everything I know to fix it. When I made RODI in my 32g can and mixed salt into it it was fine and came clear. Up until about 6 months ago. I changed out my membrane and all other ro media, I even added 2 more canisters to the unit, 2 sleeve, 2 carbon and 2 di even though my tds end results say 0 TDS going in was 205 max after our water softener unit... It's a 100gpd unit. I also changed my can to a brute 32g and tried different mixing pumps just in case something was up with one of them. I then changed salt. I still have the issue with a slightly tan cloudy water the instant the salt hits it. Originally I put a bag of carbon in a filter sock and ran the water through it while still in the can. It cleared. But then I was thinking... maybe it's a solid of sorts. So I did this again without the carbon. Same results. The water cleared being filtered through the sock. So here is my question, can there be something in the presumably clean rodi that when the salt is mixed in then becomes a solid?
