Water distiller (UNCLASSIFIED)HI Robert:
I prefer using a PWT meter, such as one offered by Hanna Instruments.
I prefer to start with water that tests at 0.3 uS.
I test the water before I add the water to the container, after the water is
placed in the container, and then after the silver electrodes are added to the
container.
I won't use distilled wtaer that reads 1.0 uS or greater.
I also test the PH of the distilled water.
If the PH is too far away from 7.0, or if I can't get a stable reading on the
PH, I get suspicious ( one must use a calibrated digital PH meter, and not
papers ). I might then re-ozonate the water, as I suspect that it might be
possible that the water is contaminated with dissolved plastics.
Dissolved plastics may not register on a PWT or TDS meter.
Best Regards,
Jason

I got to thinking (terrible I know) about my distiller and how I measure the
water.
I use my TDS and get a 0 maybe I should have something better to test the
water with.
Maybe I do not have as good a water as I think, this could explain why I had
problems in past
(and some times now) where my wife says I am turning gray in the face.
I have backed off on consumption and strength of CS. Maybe I need to look
harder at my distilled water that I am using.
I back off on the CS and color gets better. What is best for testing the
distilled water and how good should it be.
I have never cleaned my distiller either, before I do clean it I should test
it first.
So what do I need to buy to test it with. I have been praising my Love
distiller, maybe it is not as good as I think.
I will let you all know what I find out before and after. Right now I need
some thing to test with.
