I bought a Ro/di system off Craigs list (dumb move I know) well there isnt a Tds meter with it and it's producing a lot more than 75 gallons a day. Any suggestions?

As long as the plastic itself is in good condition, you're fine. Go to spectrapure and get new filters. 1 micron sediment and carbon. Di cartridge and ro and flow restrictor. I think I spent like $100 and it's a perfect ro/di system.

You can purchase TDS meters to see how it's operating. In fact I think it's money well spent. I have this (http://www.bulkreefsupply.com/store/products/reverse-osmosis-filters-and-systems/ro-di-accessories/deluxe-dual-inline-tds-meter-dm-2-hm-digital.html) one. It's a dual TDS meter. I use it to measure the TDS out of the RO membrame and out of the DI resin. They also have another version for a little under $30.

I just ordered a hand held TDS meter of Ebay for $8 shipped.

So as long as Tds is 0, I should be good right? Is there anywhere in town to buy 1 you think?
