    Hello everyone

    I checked my TDS this morning and it reads 5. Should I change my DI rezin now or should I wait? My water reads 250 straight out of the tap and was reading 0 after my ro unit but now it reads at 5. Is it time to change the rezin yet??

    I would change it. How long has it been?

    I guess Ive ran about 10 35 gallon cans through it. I will change it. I can tell when I need to check it when I get that green hair algea starting to cover my magnet glass cleaner and the power cables to my power heads get algea on them.

    I will change it. Thanks Matt. Hey since I dont drink anymore because of the pills I take ( Pain Meds ) . Everyone have one for me this weekend to celebrate Independance day.
