My system runs a 5 micron prefilter, then 10 micron carbon then triple DI, we aim for TDS of 4 or below and then start changing the filters.
We have had issues but I cant claim they were from using DI only resin.
As for using the chemicals to recharge, not sure with the toxic nature of the chemicals, the water savings, and a value for our time that it is more "economical" to just use a few more DI Cartridges.

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?
