All,

Okay, for the last week 5 days, I have had my calcium reactor running. It is
at a drip per every 1.5-2 seconds and the water coming out is at a slow
trickle. It seems to be working pretty well as far as funtionality goes. It
is running smoothly, and the design seems to be okay. I too have the gas
build up in the reactor, but I can simply tilt the reactor a bit, and the
gas escapes through the output. Water is leaving the reactor at a pH of 6.4.


My question though is this. Those of you who run reactors, do you still have
to use any other alk/calcium additives? When I ran my reactor for the first
day or two, I continued to use additives, so of course the water coming from
the reactor tested well. I have since quit adding anything. As of now, the
pH has dropped, and so has the alk and calcium. Should I let it continue to
drop until I get a baseline and then adjust and use additives from there??
The whole idea behind adding a reactor was to stop using additives. It may
be a bad design?

TIA,
Shane C.
