why not use the 10 micron carbon and then the 5 micron prefilter? Did you find that config would clog up your carbon filter too quickly?

What type of DI filter do you use? Is it the Aquasafe refill your own resin container?

As far as the toxic nature of the chemicals, i believe there is a final process to counteract the chemicals.

As far as economical sense, would it not be easier to collect all your used DI resin for a few changes in a container and then recharge them all at the same time using the procedure?

Hi Chin

I have always used the cheapest filter first, not sure what would happen with the carbon first.

I use the "nuculear grade" color changing DI filters.

I understand the conversion of the chemicals but having stuff like that around could result in someone using something for the wrong purpose, etc.

Probably true but its a matter of priorities.

All the best.
