Title: RODI ISSUE
Post by: SweetReefOH on March 23, 2018, 17:39:15
I just replaced the DI resin with the BRS mixed bed resin. I have ran about 25 gallons of water through it. This RODI system also feeds my drinking water faucet. The water that is coming out has an earthy chemical smell and you can taste it too. I tried calling BRS but they’re closed. Can anyone tell me how to get rid of this?

did you run several gallons through the new resin  before using the water?  I believe it is recommended to run several gallons through new resin before using it.  Carbon will polish the water.
