I had a 75 gallon per day system that delivered 0 TDS water to me for months. I wanted to get more water production, so I added second membrane, and the first membrane feeds the second with its waste water, as I was instructed to do. I have 50-60 psi pressure. The water before the resin is usually 10 and my final product water doesn't get better than 8-10, like the resin has no effect. I have already changed the resin to new twice, so it's not old resin. My home water coming onto the whole system is 450-475, but I was getting zero TDS before the second membrane! Am I doing something wrong?
 
Can you post pictures of your setup to better help us, possibly something hooked up in the wrong spot
 
plugged DI canister?
Sometimes this causes side streaming through DI
