Water distiller (UNCLASSIFIED)HI Robert: I prefer using a PWT meter, such as one offered by Hanna Instruments.
I prefer to start with water that tests at 0.3 uS. I test the water before I add the water to the container, after the water is placed in the container, and then after the silver electrodes are added to the container. I won't use distilled wtaer that reads 1.0 uS or greater. I also test the PH of the distilled water. If the PH is too far away from 7.0, or if I can't get a stable reading on the PH, I get suspicious ( one must use a calibrated digital PH meter, and not papers ). I might then re-ozonate the water, as I suspect that it might be possible that the water is contaminated with dissolved plastics. Dissolved plastics may not register on a PWT or TDS meter.

I use my TDS and get a 0 maybe I should have something better to test the water with. Maybe I do not have as good a water as I think, this could explain why I had problems in past (and some times now) where my wife says I am turning gray in the face. I have backed off on consumption and strength of CS. Maybe I need to look harder at my distilled water that I am using. I back off on the CS and color gets better. What is best for testing the distilled water and how good should it be. I have never cleaned my distiller either, before I do clean it I should test it first. So what do I need to buy to test it with. I have been praising my Love distiller, maybe it is not as good as I think. I will let you all know what I find out before and after. Right now I need some thing to test with. Bob Classification: UNCLASSIFIED Caveats: NONE
