Is it my DI Resin?

[sloanhaus]

I'm setting up my tank and purchased a new AquaFX 6 Stage system. I made about 200 gallons of water and the reading I was getting went from 0 to 1. I tried flushing the system and this didn't help. My water pressure is at 20 when running normal, and it's at 60 if I stop the line that goes to my drain. Does this mean I have 20 or 60 water pressure? Also, do I need to replace the DI filter every time it gets to 1? This is going to get expensive every 200 gallons as I have a 350 gallon tank.

Thanks
Sloan

If the gauge says 20 while in normal operation mode then that is your water pressure which is extremely low. Are you sure the flush valve is turned the right way? Mine goes from 55 to 20 when I open flush valve.
If your pressure is only 20 you will defiently need a booster pump.

The 20 psi may mean the sediment cartridge and/or carbon cartridge is clogged, since pressure gauges are usually after those.

Flush valve is closed. When I open flush valve it goes to 0. I posted a picture of how I have it hooked up. This is a brand new barracuda from AquaFX.
