Ok, I will try to explain this to the best of my ability. I am finding po4 in my newly mixed salt and fresh RODI.
What I have done:
-got new batch of salt, tested both. Both have po4
-replaced DI resign, old and new both reading 0tds
-vinegar bathed mixing container, pump, and hose, still got po4 reading
-bought new brute mixing container, still got a po4 reading
-replaced battery in hanna checker, po4 readings were much lower after this
-used multiple cuvettes, found some inconsistencies between cuvettes
I have read several post that state the hanna checkers do not accurately test po4 in RODI. This would make sense as my po4 readings vary a lot when I have tested the po4 in RODI. So question 1, since my TDS is 0, should I not be concerned about the po4 reading in my RODI?
Second question. I am getting readings that my salt is mixing anywhere from 0.03ppm to 0.09ppm. I have never had high po4 issues in my tanks. Should I be concerned?
Third question. If the po4 reading is an issue, what should I do?
Please let me know if there is anymore information I should provide. Thanks in advance!
