Ok i have a Vertex; Puratek RO system that i haven't change filters in 2 years of continuous use. And the particule reader indicates 00PP still.

I haven't change the membrane either , just the carbon and pre-filter once in 4 years.

So do you think my meter is faulty. Or my water is of good quality to begin with.

You probably have decent water going in and I would bet that you flush the membrane. What is the tds before any filtration and after RO but before DI.

Use the meter you suspect may be faulty. That reads TDS.

Get one of these and test the water post RO and also post DI.

They are available also from most of our favorite aquarium supply on line stores.
