Drinking pure water...
« on: February 10, 2008, 10:06:49 pm »
I've been told that it's OK to drink water from RO but not after it's been through DI.

Is that correct??

Thanks

After RO is fine, but it going through a chemical resin isn't good for you.

RO's are for making pure drinking water, so I don't see why not. Actually my RO's outlet says 'to faucet' lol.

Thanks guys.

I was told the right thing then.  Mate also said the same that ROs are used for drinking water so it must be ok.....before DI.

The resin you buy is not food quality. Also the containers are not very hygenic. If you want to drink it it probably won't kill you but I don't recommend it.i
