Since I am asking questions....
I replaced the membrane and both prefilters as well as adding a flush kit on my Kent 24 gal RO. Since then, the discharge (dirty)water pours out at a much greater rate than before. Not as much as when you flush the membrane, but a lot more than the steady drip that it was before the replacement. The "good" water accumulates at a greater rate than 25 gal/day also.
I have checked the seating on the prefilters and membrane and double checked the connections and the flow restrictor on the flush kit.They seem ok. I have no way of testing the good water.
Should I be concerned or be happy with the additional ro water?

I think it just makes sense that by changing the filters, you are letting more water through. As the old ones clog, water flow is slowed.
I would strongly recommend a TDS meter. They are inexpensive and take ALL the guessing about what is going on with your RO water.
