New RO/DI filter

[Mightyreefer87]

Just purchased this Typhoon III 5 stage RO/DI filter yesterday. Not only did they over night it I also got 20% off. The TDS lvls in my tap where around 208, after running it through the filter the meter read 0. Now just a few more things and ill have my set up complete.

That's crazy how high was it?

 

[pcdebb]

something like 500. I'm on well water....

Ah I see, my house has a filtration system that filters the water from the main. It was still that high. Guess that it's not meant to filter tds. What rodi do you use?

I got mine from bulk reef supply. Money well spent.

How do you check your tap water with a meter of some kind?

They sell TDS meters on eBay for a few bucks. Many RODI systems will have meters as well.
