So, drum roll....
First, I have to laugh at myself when I came across a 3 point TDS probe, then I thought about what I said above about not having a handheld unit.. Sometimes I just need a minute, lol.
So, not sure how I did this but on the 2 membrane sleeves I crossed the waste and the clean water lines. Just like my name says, I took this all apart as to ensure they were seated correctly also and I dropped one of the membrane sleeves and broke two of the John Quest fittings, lol. So, off to the store I went.
So, I still have TDS, but I think I need to run the unit for a few hours to flush it. After 30 minutes it has already dropped back. So, the TDS for my tap water is 43. The TDS before the DI is 12 and I am getting 2 after the DI resin. Now, I am sure it is flooded with partial waste water. I am ordering new Carbon blocks. I am also debating about just replacing all the DI resins and starting over. I bought the 7 pound bags as apposed to the 1 pound bags. When I got it I broke it down and vacuum sealed it all. So, considering I have a couple year supply on the mixed, I am not sure that isn't such a bad idea. But, I'll see what the TDS looks like in 90 minutes. The membranes are 2.5 months old, I checked. Well this took much longer than I thought!
