There's another way to get rid of CO2 that might be easier. And you will probably kick yourself for not thinking of it sooner. :-)

How about an old wet/dry filter? Run the RO water over the bioballs or noodles or whatever, and blow a little extra air into the bottom and out the top. Collect the degassed water from the bottom of the filter and pump it thru your DI cartridge.

That technique is pretty common in industry to remove CO2 from water, but those of us in semiconductor and nanotech don't like it because it add can add TOC and bacteria. We prefer much more expensive methods :-)
