I probably should have the wather checked to be sure, but it is supposed to take just about everything out - one of the tanks has the carbon, too. We do have the RO in the kitchen with a drinking tap. I'll just keep monitoring. Thanks!

IMO your water would be fine since you have the three-tank system with the R/O. Most people skip the third tank to save money with their only concern being to prevent scale and lime build-up in their plumbing and appliances and relying on the city to kill and filter out all the bad stuff that your third tank does.
