We have some super treatment facilities in Canada here, but can't touch that. For safety, we included a small amount of disinfectant, (chlorine) and calcium, a few other minerals, so we are mostly in the 140 ish range,


So you don't even need to do RODI....that's not fair!

Any water under 80 TDS is not reccommended for human consumption as it lacks the necessary ions for health
Our water has chloramine. I thought 4tds was an error but a buddy on the other side of town says that's what he is measuring also. The 4 is right before the DI if that makes a difference?
