It should have come down by now. They can take a few hundred litres to settle in but once they've been in a while it should only take maybe 20+ litres for it to get down to a reasonable level after each start up (assuming you don't have continuous production). Did youy change the carbon/chlorinew filter too (the top one usually). Do you have a sediment pre-filter before the main merlin unit? Is it possible that you seated one of the membranes a bit off centre?

I had the same issue. Turned out the membranes were of a dodgy batch. When swapped, all went back to normal.
