Hi everyone! I got a new BRS 4 stage water saver plus RODI unit and I’m struggling with the TDS in the final RODI phase. I hooked up the system last night and it ran for 10 minutes with the flush valve open to rinse out the system. Then I closed the flush valve and let water run through at 65 PSI for the 2 hours like the instructions recommended. What was frustrating is that the TDS leaving the RO membrane never dropped below 3 ppm and the TDS leaving the DI section never dropped below 2ppm. I read that a new RODI unit can have higher TDS for 24 hours... is that what you all typically experienced too? Do you think I’m safe to use that 2 TDS RODI water?? I’m located in Minneapolis and checked out the water report, there’s 2.6 - 3.5 ppm of chloramine in the tap water. BRS recommends at least the 5 stage if there’s Chloramines so I think I know my answer already
