Water in Alberta

[Beverly]

Thanks, Quinn. Updated the time zone in my profile. Gonna test the new time with this post. It's now 10:51 am.

While back was at AI and talking about water, informed that they just used city tap.

[Quinn]

Bev looks like you're on PST now...

Mark that suprises me, I thought they had a large RO unit in the back room but I've never looked too closely.

Quinn, Did the GMT-7 like you suggested and I'm still an hour out

I have a feeling most lfs here use tapwater because of the volumes of water they go through.

[Quinn]

I don't know, an industrial RO unit should be affordable to a solvent business. My dad's was fairly large, did about two gallons per minute, and doesn't cost him that much as I recall. But if Edmonton tap water is usable, then of course there's no need.

Bev is your computer clock set properly, and is daylight savings enabled? If so, I don't know what the problem is, perhaps set your time to GMT-6 (CST), that should at least give you the correct time.

I wouldn't use dechlored tapwater in my tanks, but some do.

Computer clock is fine, auto sets to MDT then back to MST. You're in AB, what do you have your Profile time setting at?

[Quinn]

GMT-7

Uh and I just realized, my posts are also one hour back. So we have a problem with the forum software.

What does everyone else in Alberta have their time set at?

We've been using just tapwater for over 2 years on all our tanks, no problems...yet

I don't think the forum software takes into account daylight savings time...
