Hey folks, I don't post much here, but I've run across a problem that might be particular to our area.
I bought my first RODI system in early February, and while slow, it was working ok at first. I only use it every other week, for just 6 gallons (I have a small tank.) Now, water production has slowed to a dead crawl. It took me 7 hours last Saturday to get half a gallon of water. I called the manufacturer, and they said they have seen an increase in the last two months of complaints from the five burroughs. They suspect that the water is being treated with a coagulant, possibly alum, and that would clog up a RODI system. Is anyone else having this problem, and if so, how are you solving it?
