Yes, but use less Kalk in the reactor from now on. Another thing i just thought of is; does your reactor use a doseing pump? If so, you may need to time how often your float valve opens up, in order to make sure you are getting an mixed dose of kalk. Hope this makes sense.

Just so you know Im not using a a Kalk Reactor

yes I do in a way, WHen I had my reactor going I would have it set on a drip for 1 drip every 2 seconds. sometimes I wouldnt be able to keep up and ended up having the RO/di be activated by the float switch.

With the tub that i have set up all i'm using is the float switch that is powered by the tub so all evaporation is getting kalk. may be I have too much kalk i went with 2 teaspoons for every gallon. When Doug was over he thought that was to much should I have used only 1 tsp for every gallon
