So my I've charged anion once and my cation has not color changed yet.
As you can see, I'm ready to charge the anion again.
How about you?

My anion is double canisters. I go through at least 10 canisters of anion before the cation needs changing.
 
I have CO2 in my water even after the degassing chamber so I go thru anion much faster

I saw your post on your friend who who goes through more also. I actually did charge my cation once just because I didn't know what color it was supposed to change, I guess I didn't need to do that.
Thanks.
 
I use anion which last me about 3 months , sometimes 4 mo
 
I go through 10 canisters of Anion before my Cation is spent. I have a well with high Co2. I only get ~150 gallons out of my anion canister too.

How do you degas? After talking with spectrapure I make ro into a big brute that is heavily aerated in my garage for at least 2 days, then use a small pump to push it through their megamax csp and Enduro di. I get at least a year+ or over 1k gallons minimum before I change them just because. They still produce 0tds water. We have high co2 in our well water but not as high as some.
