Next to nothing

With ur tds being so high it would destroy it in minutes

I used to used double di ( 2 x 11ltr vessels ) and tap water was 95-110 and the tds would not last more than 2 or 3 tanks ( 650L )

So I would run it through into the tank regardless of tds then connect a vessel up and run it through the di a second time and back into the tank

It’s an absolute drama

Don’t even bother wasting your time trying to work it out , or even experimenting using resin with a tds that high . You are stuck using yiur RO . My tds hoes from 70 up to 300. When it wants . Summer , winter , changes week by week , doesn’t seem to be any pattern . I just use the RO all the time now . Brings it down low enough to not use resin . Usually down to 3 up to 12 . Just gotta take the hit with my water bill for the time being . Having an extension and new roof , starting in January. When thsts done I am definitely gunna set up to harvest as much rain off the roof and garage . Water bill at the moment is outrageous.

Thanks for your replies
Looks as though I was working it out incorrectly.  All good

You must be doing something wrong or had a bad bag.

It should last much longer than that.

My tds goes between 60 and 100.   I run a double 11 ltr tds.   Once a month I have to change one of the canisters over when the final TDS starts to creep up.

Why would you want to do that? At 350tds your water will eat resin. Unless it's for filling up your tank away from home on the odd occasion?
price higher/work harder!
