It is now the end of week 8, and here is the update:
Help: I'm running out of attachment space, can someone please tell me what the procedure is to post photos without first uploading them as attachments.
The Mountain Air is getting it done. The smell has been tamed and is now confined exclusively within the tent, it has even gotten rid of the smell from the mother box.
Fan is set to 50% on its controller, and the ozone is permanently off.
It has been 8.5Weeks so far, and today I began to flush.
I ran 6 gallons on Drain to Waste after I cleansed the res, and all the filters. I had 500ppm after the first 3gallons, and 150ppm after the second 3gallons.
I plan on changing the water today once again, and probably every day for the next 3 days. the flush will run for at least 2 weeks, and I am using Final Phase as a flushing agent.
This time I took all the pics with the nice camera, in hopes to share better pics:
Day 2of flush: from the original 3gallons, 1.5gallons came out with 130ppm.
Note that the 3 gallons of RO water originally have about 7ppm.
I also noted that water consumption has increased since only about 1.5gallons are coming out.
Day 3 of flush: 1.5 gallons came out with 188ppm.
This time I used a flushing agent that had brought the original 3gal up to 120ppm before starting circulation
Day 4 of Flush: 1.5 gallons came out with 170ppm, flushing agent was used at the same 120ppm
Day 5 of Flush: 1.5g came out at 50ppm, flushing agent was not used.
I will now load it up with 14 gallons of water and leave the thing alone for the next 10days.
