Hey BRS , I’ve been thinking and wondering , i use the same 60 g poly tank that you guys do (or at least similar, i bought it brand new sanitized it, and it always has the lid on and tight , I’ve noticed that my water will leave my last di stage of my 6 stage BRS rodi unit at 0 tds, and after 12 hrs or so of being stored in my poly tank the tds reads about 5-20 tds ,
I’ve heard bits and pieces of people saying 0 tds rodi water tends to be negatively charged and want to pull things into it (ions and matter and such ) thus causing 0tds water to increase in tds , i dunno how true this is, I’m curious for sure !
My storage tank only sees fresh saltwater, i don’t use it for top off water because as anyone who has used these tanks before knows that it is very hard to get all of the water completely out of the tank due to how the bulk head is mounted there is always a inch or so (give or take how hard you try to get all the water out ) so maybe in my case I’m getting a tds reading is the leftover saltwater mixed with the fresh RODI water thus raising the TDS ,, what do you guys think [emoji848] ??????
