I have never seen tds as high as 34ppm coming out of my RO membrane. These are usually in the low single digits. But then I run HiS membranes that are rated at 99+ % filtration. Some partials they are even rated at 99.8% filtration.

I would think it was the new water source since I moved in May but I have made lots of water here since May and just within the last week have had these issues. I am freaking out as I just up a 240 gallon tank and also have a 125 gallon. I can not be buying and hauling in that much water all the time to go buy it at the store. Can anybody help?

Sure - feel free to give us a call.
