Smelly water

[dynamictank]

When u make ro/Di water and store it,
It normally doesn't smell. when it starts to smell that does that mean???

The cartridges need to be replaced!

my Tds reads max .4 to .2

Water even at high TDS shouldn't smell, do you have a power head circulating the RO or just letting it sit?

TDS of 4 wouldn't need the filters replaced only the DI resin.

What does it smell like? My RO water has TDS of 4. We drink it. No smell. What are you storing it in? Any possiblility that something has fallen in and fouled the water? How long are you leaving it out?

is it necessary to circulate sitting ro water. I have 2 20 gallon brutes, one strictly for RO and one for saltwater.

I have it in a black bin 40 gallons with a big pump (def... overkill) lid, with heater at 77.

dead water (non moving water) has a tendency to grow bacteria. and if the water is incubating something, will smell like rotten eggs.
