It's the TDS creep, it's legit. It is only that high for a few seconds and it is because the membrane is idle for a period of time. It's not the source water.

Made worse in my case because I double up 2 75gpd membranes to get 150, so I have to read one value that is the sum of both inline.

The TDS creep is why you should flush the membranes. If you don't then they won't last as long as otherwise.

Well in that case it makes sense. Had no idea you had two membranes in series.
