Hey Greg the same thing happens to my water.
It's no big deal at all. I have a Vertek Puratek unit and after a few days of it not producing water for my reservoir the TDS has gone up to 44-45.
Been like that from the day I got it and it's a been a few years. I'm thinking in my case though it's just the watwr that sits stagnant in the line that the TDS meter is attached to. Besides your in B.C. we have great water.

Calgary water standard is between 156- 299ppm, I don't believe we are getting anything close to zero out of our units. As people have run successful tanks with Calgary water I don't think 6ppm of TDS is going to hurt you at all.

I checked mine after my last fill and my TDS was sitting at 156 within a week after the floods. I don't run mine into a drain until I get 0 on my outline (straight into the Brute) and I've never checked the water in the bin. I don't have an algae problem, just a blue clove problem so I figure its all good.
