What the tds reading in your area
« on: July 28, 2005, 10:23:32 am »
Im probably going over old ground, but here in lincolnshire the tap water comes out at about 250 and last night it came out at 160 ;D.  just wondering what readings you get in other areas and weather you use r/o or not. currently im just using di because ive only had my system about two weeks and only using it on leaded/georgian/larger jobs. also would like to say that this forum has been a huge help in getting set up with wfp and thanks to everyone for sharing their knowledge it would have been impossible without it.
Many thanks
Philip

Hi Philip,

I live in Berkshire and my tap TDS is 385 the lowest it has dropped to is 363. I have to use a RO unit or it would cost a fortune in resin for a DI unit. My RO drops the TDS to 10 and a final DI polish brings it to 0

Mick,

Where in Derbyshire are you based?

Did you buy a franchise?

Wow that's low Dai! Where'd it come from Cadair Idris direct? ;D
Here in NW Bristol/Sth Glos it's 420/470.

From the water butt from my garage roof it's about 70/80.
It's a game of three halves!
