Tap water VS Puratap filtered water

Tap water VS Puratap water

I tested the ec of my tap water at about 850 and I was far more confused when I compared this with my puratap twin filtered water that tested at about 900. I thought that puratap filtered water would have read far less than straight tap water. I then compared this to a bottle of spring water that was about 100. I’m just wondering if any of you have any suggestions on what the f is going on. I was hoping that the Puratap water would have been better quality. At the least I would have thought the puratap water would have filtered out some dissolved solids. I wanted to increase my additives, but with the water so high it’s hard to fit everything in.

This experiment is only worth doing

 

Tap water Vs Rain water

 

Even still, I doubt you would see the difference at the end of it.

sounds like you might have to replace the filters... what sort of filter are you using.. and can the canisters be replaced?

 

with tap water.. its usually fine... in most cases.. the only issue really is the chlorine levels.. which can be fixed by placing the water in an open container in the sunlight.. this will disperse the chlorine over 1-2 days...

 

the best option i think is rainwater.. so maybe look into a rainwater tank.. if youre renting.. ask the landlord.. they will get a good rebate on one.. or just look into one thats small enough that you can take with you..

 

buds grow best with rainwater i think..

I have seen wheelie bins converted into rain water catchers.

probably an old filter

 

 

puratap runs using activated carbon. When the carbon gets all used up, all the chemicals it removed start leeching back into the water.

 

 

replace the carbon and you should notice a difference
