I would say no mine generally goes 1,2,3,4,  then rises quite quickly over days , not as sudden as that

It can be an indication that the batteries in your TDS meter are failing, we've had that before.

Check to see if the pipe inside the vessel is fitting correctly not leaking , if it comes loose the water fills up in the vessel and any new
water coming in just goes straight through without being filtered.

Tulsion has dropped through the floor quality wise. Myself and many others have experienced what you now have. I don't buy it anymore.  I would see how you get on with the unger, might be an idea to test the TDS of the vessel which had Tulsion in it.

Gardiner or Daqua it's all the same. Tried and tested them all and all produce the same poor results! I've had Tulsion from every supplier and it's all the same. I've used the twin DI method for over 12 years, Tulsion used to be great up until about Two years ago and it then went downhill big time!

Never had an issue with Tulsion. I've tried alternatives (unger amongst others), non came close.
