One probe tests the incoming water, and another probe tests the water coming out.
Let's you know how bad your tap water is, and how good of a job the filter is doing. You want a TDS of zero. When the output water starts getting higher than that, time to change the filters and membrane.

Re: Dual TDS meters
Hello,
I run one on my water leaving the RO membrane and the other one after the DI cartridge that way I know when to change the RO before it ruins the DI and when to just change the DI.
Regards,
KevinSPSguy

Re: Dual TDS meters
I really like that idea! I get tired of seeing the same old tap water TDS numbers. And I have 2 DI canisters so it could get pricey to waste them away with an old RO membrane. Thanks for the tip!

Now that seems like a much better use for the second probe!
