I would need to research that, but my first thought is a EC meter wont be able to tell you when a filter is clogged. Though there might be a rise in mineral elements going through it if they are clogged. Either way if you have a meter, it couldn't hurt to regularly test it, and see if there is ever any change. But it wont make the filters last longer, and their still only able to go so far before they need to be replaced. Also the more the the filtration system needs to get out, the faster the filters will clog.
