Default What's the TDS readings of your source water?
I thought I would see how your source water tests. I'm out in Chilliwack and Chilliwack is high on the fact that we have either the best or the second best water in all of Canada. (at least for drinking) So I thought I would see how it stacks up against the rest of you in regards to total dissolved solids.

My reading this morning was 162. What's yours?

Bill

I've been to Calgary a few times in my life and one thing I'm sure to do is not drink the water. I think our public pools have less chlorine in them than Calgary's tap water. What is your water source? is it the Bow?

But maybe your right, if we are second best for water maybe you are first after all your water is twice is good as mine. 335/161 hehehehehe
