I fill mine about 3 qtrs full

[gregmyster]

do you think i have overfilled it or shouldnt it make any odds

[tacky]

on the black cap u have a in and out tapwater in puriefied out if these ar connected wrong it will effect the tds

[rosskesava]

Did you fill it up with tap water?

[trevor summerfield]

is your fush tap on the ro still open, if so close it.

[gregmyster]

thanks for replying
i have just been outside messing about with it , tds 12 going from ro to di then from di to storage gone upto 18 (got it running to drain at the minute)
i didnt have the ro on flush should i have?
the water flow pipes have been put back correctly
i will tell you one thing i did do that i think could have been wrong when i threw away the old resin i rinsed the cannister out with tap water before filling it with fresh resin

[George P]

Don't think it should be full,even though it should still work ok,

[rosskesava]

Resin expands as it removes impurities which is why the cannister shouldn't be full.

[gregmyster]

i had better tip some out then

[sparkleglass]

check it out in a couple of days

just a little tip that may be of some use,,when you,ve put the resin in the canister to about 3/4 full, don,t try putting the top on straight away,,because sometimes is difficult to get the thread on straight because the resin moves the filter about to much,,fill the canister to the top with r o first and you,ll find the top goes on simple as,

[trevor summerfield]

i had similar  problems after installation. it should fall unto place, eventually

[londoncleaners]

Empty resin bottle, rinse with near pure water, refill 3/4 high whilst a tapped off hole in the top of the bottle is in place, make sure u connect the correct water flow pipes to the correct ones, ie left to left right to right. Brodex only. Job done

It's absolutely fine to use tap water to both rinse & fill a DI vessel.

Is the riser tube fully inserted into the head unit? They usually need a little push as it goes past an internal rubber O-ring.

Agree with this post.

Fill the vessal with resin to the neck, because as soon as you put water in it, it will sink leaving enough space, been do it this way for years and works perfectly well.
