Title: RO Waste
Post by: stuart webster on May 03, 2006, 07:42:31 pm

My tap water is going in at 37 out at 000.
Waste is about 75-80.
I flush when I re-fill after flushing for 25 mins flushed water comes out at 47.

Is there anything I can do to improve this?

Refill what? How often do you flush?

I flush after ever fill of my water butts, I flush for about 3-5 mins each time.

Sorry, i'm in the habit of flushing when I refill my 250 L tank in the car.
It's so I have a set time to flush.

Is that the reading While you flush or After? Assuming that it's the reading after finishing flushing, I dont think there's much you can do to reduce it, after all the tds has to go somewhere, and you'd rather have it going out through the waste than through your pure water!!

Does your tds change on the pure side of your ro, that is Before your di, if you have a di vessel?
