Title: Highest tds you've worked with?
Post by: Klean07 on March 02, 2012, 04:35:24 pm
I'm asking this because I checked my tds the other day and it read 40!! I've had one complaint but nothing else.
I ordered some resin so hopefully next time I go out my tds will be back down to 0.

Complacency I put it down to.

Topic on here some time ago, I mentioned I've cleaned with just RO water, and it was fine for the majority of houses.

I was using around 9-10ppm. Was doing this for about half a year when using cold. What I have found is it leaves spots behind when using hot. Also, di-ionised water at 000 cleans much faster I found. Quicker with rinsing. Don't ask me the science, just seems that way. Perhaps absorbs dirt more readily. Have cleaned water till about 27ppm, but strangely enough needs more time rinsing.

Not saying you can't clean with just RO water, but not as quick.

I try to stay at zero as soon as it rises at 002 I change the resin this way if there is a problem the water cannot be blamed
