Uh...no. [well, better than no water at all.]
If that were the end result, sure.
Even when a TDS meter read zero, assuming it reads properly, the water
can be marginal.
But water that reads 2 or even 3 can generally be used, depending on
*what* makes it a 2 or 3.
..subtract that from the end result and double that number for silver content.
Distiller tips:
1] Carbon Pre-filter source water , remove any post filters.
2] Don't fill up the boiling chamber all the way..to prevent boil over
into the condenser...if there is any way to slow it down, slow it
down...ideally, the water shouldn't boil, just vaporize.
3] Discard the first bit that comes out to get rid of any volatiles the
carbon pre-filter may have missed
If it doesn't measure up, return it to the distiller and re-start at #2
..and don't let the distiller run dry as that will encrust it with minerals
that can be tough to remove...discard that last bit and rinse.
Periodically apply acid to clean the camber and condenser of mineral
deposits. CLR, white vinegar, Muriatic [concrete cleaner from the home
despot aka Hydrochloric acid..use that stuff outside. ]

I bought a water distiller and TDS meter. After distilling the water
it reads 5 PPM. Is this good enough to make CS?
