Got water in no leaks but my baffles failed so I'm gunna redesign it.

 

[kbourque]

Got it all running new baffles are working great. No leaks. Have a problem with my rodi now it's reading 6-8ppm I'm waiting to hear back from the manufacturer.

What's your starting TDS?

Just now seeing this. I like the idea of combining the tank with a bar. Will be great to entertain around that. Following along...

Well faucet is at 116ppm I think something is wrong with my di filter on it.

 

[kbourque]

I read up on some reviews of ppl having the same problem and the company made it right

 

[SnakeBlitz33]

That's good.

 

[kbourque]

Well they contacted me early this am sent them my info and they replied already saying they are sending me a new di filter to try. Now that's some good customer service sofar.

Been busy got the new di filter in Wednesday haven't installed it yet to check tds, but will prob do that in a little while. Finally have all my door frames done and hung. Still have some moulding to put up, but the bar is almost complete.

New di filter

New di filter is working now time to start making some water anyone recommend a good brand of salt?

Wow great build and what an awesome place to put it. Ive used Instant Ocean Reef Crystals for years with success. IMO, good parameters and consistency from box to box. Good price to quality ratio too. Ive tried others and went back to Reef Crystals eventually

 

[MioReefer]

Tagging along. I'm about to start a very similar build (without the bar). Looking good.

[emoji35] made 40 ish gallons of rodi and now have a reading of 6 ppm pls tell me this isn't normal!!

 

[kbourque]

I wanna try changing the resin, but don't know if there's a certain type to look into any suggestions?

 

[kbourque]

Also I have a home water sofener and carbon filter would that mess up a rodi system?

 

[cginter]

Looks awesome. Can't wait to see what it looks like complete!

 

[kbourque]

Contacted the company again got a quick response they are sending me another di filter to run after the one I have now.

 

[kbourque]

Got the filter today so I added it in and put a pressure guage I'll prob add an inline tds meter soon too.
