So let me start with some info before I discuss the problem.
I have a BRS 5 Stage premium plus 75GPD rodi system. I have been running it about every 2 weeks for about 4 months now. I haven’t changed any of the filters except the sediment filter a few times. I only make about 10-15 gallons per use. I always flush the system before and after use and I know whether it is flush or not so that is not the issue
Some things that happened and might have caused a problem I’m not sure are first of all the water system I use for the rodi only goes at around 50psi, when I first started the system I’ve gotten maybe 40-50 psi the highest but later on it decreased to maybe 20 and last week was maximum 10 psi. Last week for some reason the water source turned incredibly dirty, im talking the water was literally black. The sediment filter was destroyed in a few minutes and now my first carbon filter looks dirty as well. It took me like 8 hours to make ~5 gallons
I tried making water today and now I can’t even make water using the system. The output going into the system is still 50 psi but my system displays literally 0-1 psi and produced like a few drops. What is causing the issue? Could it be I need to change the carbon filter? It was said it would last 6-12 months but didn’t indicate how I could tell when I need to replace it without buying chlorine testers. The di filter seems to be okay as well as its black right now but not golden brown which is supposed to be when i change it.
