I just got my TSD tester for $25 shipped and wonder what everyone elses tap tests at.
My Tap was at 88ppm
My Tap after an inline 1 stage filter was at 62ppm
My local Stores RO-DI Machine tested at 4ppm
Please post away!
BTW I tried to test my tank but that has 35ppt salt. I guess thats why it showed a E :)

tap in detroit suburb 155ppm, ro/di usually around 0-5 depending how cold outside because it changes my intake temp.

The RO-DI vending machine I get my water at isn't perfect and I understand that keeping it at 0 all of the time might be asking a little too much. At what point should I ask for them to change filters if they haven't yet?? thanks

Try getting a TDS meter( got mine for $21.45 shipping included ) and checking their water on the spot. If it goes above 005, I think it's time for them to change the filters, others may suggest anything under 10 ppm. JMO

I was just reading and readings over 500 are concerned by the epa to be undrinkable. Might want to check out the water you are drinking or cooking with.

tap 450
rodi 000
drinking water delivered to the house 004 (good to know in case of emergency water needed, 004 isn't too terrible)
