Starting new Tank with NTUC bottled drinking water

[Williamhan]

Any bro / sis can advice on this

[oqs]

no problems with that as NTUC bottled water is distilled water. just not very environmentally friendly with all the empty bottles and not pocket friendly too if you got a big tank. I also recall sweating buckets carrying cartons of bottled water home.. that is before I decided enough is enough and got a ro/di unit.

Tks bro Oqs fr that info

I ordered 30 cartons of 12 bottle /box

Will invest in a RO/DI sooooon

I'm using that. Push giant shopping trolley(those smaller type) into ntuc, grab 14 bottles tada..

5-6ppm haven't test what's in that distilled water.
