So, going to sound like a pretty newb question, but has anyone actually had success using tap water?
I'm in a bit on a conundrum - I've been using my RODI unit for a while, working great, but the guy I rent from (I work with him and he gives me a great deal on rent with no utility charges) says his elec bill has gone up like crazy. Here I am, thinking it's free well water, but we think the pump drawing the water up from the well is using a lot of energy, especially when I leave the water on all night to fill up my buckets.
The option of buying distilled water is open, I guess, but I have a small car and live in the middle of nowhere, so it wouldn't be effecient at all.
I'm thinking of switching back to non-rodi tap water to save the expense. I've had it tested, and it seems good, except it's fairly "hard" and seems to have a lot of phosphates. I just got a phosphate reactor and am running phospure, so maybe I can get away with it? :shock:
Besides giving him money for electricity, anyone have any other ideas?
