    How intense is your RODI profuction/storage setup?

    RODI is essential in making safe sea water for our critters and systems. Some are basic filter setups under kitchen sinks with the bucket system, others are completely automated 50 gallon storage and dispensing solutions. How far have you gone in your quest for RODI water?

    Do you clean your RODI system? If you do, what do you clean and how often do you clean it? What products do you use? For those that don’t clean, have you ever had experienced any harmful effects? Thanks for participating. :-)

    How does an auto flush flow restrictor, booster pump, and pressure switch all work in conjunction?

    I’ve been looking to add all three to my RODI system and have been watching some of BRS’s videos to see how it all goes together, but I’m confused. From what I can tell, the pressure switch from Aquatec can only connect to the booster pump or auto flush flow restrictor, not both at the same...

The reasoning behind the plan is to try and prevent TDS creep by using the RODI water tank as a water...

    Mold in ro/di

    I just cleaned and changed my di resin in my brs 6 stage rodi. When I opened the di chamber it had mild spores on the top and had a slimy feeling. Will this effect anything? Could this be the cause of having silicates in my water?
