    Has anyone had this problem? RO membrane O ring failure?

    So ... quick update as promised. O-Rings arrived today so as it was raining I disassembled the RO intending to swap O-rings only to discover that the ones specified are smaller than the ones fitted in the end caps from China. So, thanks to Doug@Daqua I left them fitted, and swapped over the...

    Has anyone had this problem? RO membrane O ring failure?

    Seriously? Thats crazy. Ours used to be 350 ish, but it's come down a bit (I'm in Warwick - Severn Trent Water - not sure where the water comes from though) I won't even drink our tap water. What with all the fluoride and stuff in it, it tastes horrible.

    Has anyone had this problem? RO membrane O ring failure?

    I get my supplies from Doug at Daqua. Membrane is Axeon HF5. Resin is Tulsion MB115. 10" Carbon prefilter. I have only tested the TDS after DI, but considering the resin is totally shot, we can assume the TDS reading may as well be pre-DI (the resin is doing nothing)

    Has anyone had this problem? RO membrane O ring failure?

    I'll state the facts and the problem first, then my theory. Hopefully some of you might weigh in with some experience. Been using a Brodex system for 10 years, so not a novice. For about 6 months my resin has not been lasting as long as normal, so a month ago I changed the main RO membrane...
