Max Tds Reading?

i change mine at 10 ppm and never had any complaints i did once go to 18 ppm by mistake and still never got any complaints

 
Ahh, cheers guys. I live in a soft water area and take the water with me, but I work in a hard water area. Will the hard water 'kill' the resin if I fill up with it? I take my vessel with me incase I need an emergency fill up btw.

 
If the tap tds is higher, it will use up the resin faster, but if the water is supplied by the same board, I can't see why it would be much different.

 
some people say 10-20 after that it goes down hill pretty quick as you know that you lengthen the life if you was to add a RO to it

 
Trust me, the TDS can vary hugely even in the same area with the same water board. My reading is 352-354, but my Mums less than half a mile down the road is 199-201, which is why I rigged my RO system up at hers lol. Reckon my tap water's comin direct from the sewer lol

Makes you wonder what's in your water. The water will leave the Reservoir at the same ppm probably a lot lower, then flow through all the pipes to reach your home. What is it actually absorbing in the pipes by the time it gets to you.

If you actually got a lab reading of your water you probably would never drink it. They say there is a high percentage of drugs that can be found in drinking water due to sewage water being recycled, no wonder why many people now drink r/o water !!!

 
I have a custy who has the carbon and sediment blocks before he uses it, would that take care of all those unsavouriness doug?

our water is one of the best in the world and protects people from disises etc.

yes there are minerals chlorides metals etc that comes thought the taps and thats why our teeth should be more better condition than the 1900s.

but what people don't under stand that if you don't aka boil it or some other process to purify water you will be at risk of contamination from bacterial infections and water born disease that could kill saying that the tap water is some cases is better than bottle
