Default PH issues.

My Ph has been climbing steadily recenty, its at 8.24-8.26 during the day. I'm not freaked out yet but its gone up a whole point in the past week. I do add reef reactor for Calcium and Alk so if the ph gets much higher I won't be able to use it without lowering the ph first.

Why does this happen?

Out of curiousity I tested my RO/DI water last night. It read 8.3 is that normal? I thought RO/DI water was pure and should read close to 7.0
