You need to give us some more info. Tap tds? Membrane's age. How many liters a week you process, etc

For example, if your tap water tds was 750ppm, then 23 pure is still within the membrane' s spec.  ;D

My 4040 membrane is working out at around £40 a year (6 years use ) so for me I change it when its costing me
more than £40 extra  a year in resin.
Go by costs not ppm count.
