Hi everyone
My current tds before di is 027, my tap water is 400 does this seem ok I have a 300 gpd ro, I moved property about a year ago where my tap tds was about 365 and I use to get 12 before di, I have changed pre filters today and still no change is this a sign of the membrane slowly going, it’s over 2 years old, any ideas

Have you had these figures long? Or just recent? With you saying you have not long moved?
What's your tap psi? You might need a booster pump perhaps.
I use a 350gpd RO but my tap psi is very low and so I use a booster to take it to 70psi. My tap tds is close to 300 and after RO it's down to 009, so I don't bother with DI

I have a booster pump, it’s been like it for a few months I have always had the booster pump as both property’s had low pressure around 40 at both so now I’m 60-70 psi

Hi Stephen, have you tried giving the system a good Backflush for an hour or two occasionally, this normally helps
bring down the TDS.

Changing the membrane would be a good start but with the extra TDS I would say update the booster for pump for more pressure
