000 tds is old hat.
I've started adding minerals to my water to increase the tds.

I've got a feeling some of these posts are wind-ups  :) .
The real test is looking at the "clean" glass from inside on a bright day.
Totally agree.

We did some first cleans on large blocks of flats and they were so sandy we cleaned with tap water TDS 85.
When we went back round to clean the glass with pure water they dried off and were virtually spotless!!
Got me tempted to wash them all with tap water in future. ;D ;D ;D

WHAT AM I READING! I worried the other day because mine was 004 and I had no replacement resin for 2 days... im almost sure if its above 005 on a sunny day you can see the marks easily

the amount of times ive seen this come up on forums is unreal .

Unless you have cleaned at a higher tds than the magical 000 tds you cant argue until you do it yourself
my tds is at 14 now and has been for several weeks and i have no plans onchanging the resin in my RO until i need to
why waste money when you dont need to ?

im sure lee burbidge has done an article in the past with regards to tds readings

to be quite honest I only order £15.00 amounts every 3 months so I think I can afford to change mine when it reads 005 lol but im sure if people are using 1000 litres a day or more then if its working above that then its worth saving those extra pennies

I changed my resin today at 32ppm. Not sure why i change at 30-35ppm as still dont get probs with it that high but its a safe number i go upto without any probs.

30 will be fine.

Cleaned with 54 yesterday & first job this morning! ;D

Gave the vessel a shake to finish the day off with 006. I inspected the first job & on the odd window I could make out the odd faint water spot but nothing anyone else would notice.

Changed resin when I got home. Tulsion has become pants, I'm going back to Dowex.

Funny you should say that, last year, i used to change my Tulsion resin, every two months but this year, i am having to change it every 3 weeks, and i am using the same amount of water every day, i wonder if their quality has gone down !!! :( ???

have been using 58ppm straight out of tap since
january ive had one complaint in that time spotting
on bottom of each window where the water had gathered

solved problem by running squeegee on pole across bottom
of windows at end of cleaning took seconds and not a complaint
