Default Best water in the world? TDS readings?
We here in Powell River must have close to the best water in the world. Between the 225g, 90g, and 20g QT, I go through about 5 gallons of R/O water per day. After a year my R/O unit is still like brand new. Water from the tap measures 10 TDS.
Just curious as to what other places tap water readings are?

I would think it's pretty good. If you really want to know call your Municipal waterworks. They will know.

I just tested mine from the tap and right now the TDS is 41 in Chilliwack, BC.

Our water is free of Chemicals so thats another plus.
