Rodi filters?

When do you guys replace them usually. I got a reading of 1 ppm. Should I keep using or replace?

Did you try reading the directions? That would probably be the best place to start. If you don't have them, I would try contacting the manufacturer.

Sorry for being a little unclear, I have been using this rodi for almsot a year now? It is a typhoon III. I am wondering when do you guys usually start to replace the filter? I started with readings of 0ppm, but now I got 001pmm. Do you guys think it is about time to replace the filters?

I wait until 1ppm to change the DI resin. If that doesn't drop it back to zero, then I start changing the others. It's hard to put a time frame on it because there are so many variables to calculate.
