So something been bothering me. I have the 6 stage BRS water saver system with the double ro membrane. Also run a chloramine monster before and booster pump gets me 75-85psi.

I have a TDS meter before and after the sediment filter. Before reads 375 (tap water) and after reads 425. Any ideas why?

Second thing is I have a 3 way TDS meter before di1, after di1 and after di2. My first di is running out at a rate of about 200 gallons. Going into Di1 is 8-9 TDS which is about 98%. Should my di really get burned this fast?
