    When to change out RO membrane and TDS accuracy

    Anyone? How close is enough to change out your RO Membrane? My input is about 355 (this fluctuates based on time of day) and output out of RO is 5 so my reject rate is 350/355>99% for now. I have a Filmtec 75g RO Mebrane which has a 98% rejection rate. So when does everyone change it out...

    When to change out RO membrane and TDS accuracy

    This has probably been discussed numerous times so my apologies in advance for asking. What is the consensus on changing out the RO membrane. I know a simplistic way is to check your rejection rate on the RO membrane and see if it is still close to that. Also how does one calibrate an inline...

    An article on water change

    Powerhead vs Pump

    I concur with the previous posts. You could find a used vortech or tunze or perhaps just get a maxijet mod and magnet for now. You could always use it for mixing salt when you get something better. Powerheads as previously stated are just more efficient at pushing water and can provide a nice...

    Tank automation ideas

    As Jcurry states IMO is a good investment IMO but I don't think it is necessary for you to have before you leave on vacation. An ATO is a must though. Just have enough ro/Di water on hand to last you until you get back. Too many things can go wrong with a Calcium reactor while you are gone and...
