I just started drinking the ro water from my aquasafe rodi n it tastes weird. But it's still 0ppm. Does this mean I should change the prefilter?

And yet people still ask if they really need to use RO I guess you don't, if you don't mind that "sludge" in your tank!

Do you drink RO from any other sources? Bottled water? It might just be lack of chlorine that tastes weird. If it tastes weird compared to a commercial bottle of water, I'd change the carbon.

Not to hyjack this thread too much,... Jason, you should be drinking the water from a tee before the DI part.

Yes I unhook the DI part so it's RO only. It kinda tastes like swimming pool water(yes I suck at swimming lol) or tap water that u put in a plastic bottle and left in Ur cars for days. I think I'm gonna change the carbon like aquattro advised. Dunno how my fishes stand it lol
