I recently setup the rodi system that came with a used setup I bought. I’ve been using 5g containers to transfer saltwater, and am now using those to collect rodi as it’s made.
So with the containers empty but not rinsed of previous salt water, I filled them with rodi. The tds measurement was 28ppm in the containers and ~155 from the tap. I went and bought new filters, but before installing them tested in a clean cup, and the rodi output is at 1ppm….
my question is, if the rodi reads 0-1 exiting the filters, but becomes 28-30 in the contaminated containers, does that matter? I’m guessing that as long as it’s low tds from the filter and I get salinity right when mixing, the tds in between doesn’t matter. Just wanted to make sure.
