Nope not that cartridge,but the first one,the di resin was like that for a few weeks.It gradually filled closer to the top,and they all remain full now.Don't know why your is like that,i really like the unit,tho.

when I got mine two canisters had hairline cracks on the top edge that caused it to leak/drip and at that time the middle canister would not stay full after cycling - they replaced it with new canisters and no leak and all canisters are full when its not running. I think it was a pressure loss from the leak that caused the drop in water level in the canister -just a guess.

If the carbon is not filling that there is an issue with either your carbon filter or your sediment filter and this is restricting the water flow. The DI that they use has to get super saturated and this will happen in a week to a month normally and then the di canister should run full. Not to worry its still doing its job either way. Hope that helps.

My DI housing never runs full over a year of use now. Other housings are always full. If your center cartridge is carbon, it should be full and also should be black?

It's been about 5 months with my di canister and still not filled. Anyways it's still running great at 0ppt
