| Just wondering if anyone in the really northern utah (brigham city-north ogden area) has a TDS meter. I moved my RO unit into my new apartment and i honestly have no idea when the last time i changed the filters, maybe 6-8 months ago? Just wondering if i can get my water tested before i spend the money on new filters/membrane. |

Sediment and AC Filters should be changed every 6-12 months, depending on use. Membrane only needs changing when TDS starts to creep up past 25 ppm. This can take 3-5 years depending on use Hope that helps some.  ------------- Reefkeeping Tips, & quick, easy setup tricks: www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9244 Pay it forward - become a paid WMAS member
