5 Gallon Water Jug

Really new to all of this, but trying to find where everyone gets their water jugs, preferably in Michigan to bring home water from the LFS?

I’m sure your LFS sells them.

Id just use 5 gallon buckets with lids. No need to get fancy

That’s unfortunate. I’d suggest buying your own RODI unit then.

Food grade buckets from Lowes or HD until you buy ro/di

I purchased my 5G jugs from Amazon. Look for “5 gallon plastic Hedpack with cap”.

You know, I bought water from my lfs once. It tested dirtier than my tap water... Ended up down my drain. Rodi or distilled is the way to go imo. Or at least pick up a cheap handheld tds meter and test the lfs water before buying

Good point
Any suggestions for a meter?

Not really, mine just came with my rodi setup. But they can be found pretty cheap. These are for testing fresh water, not saltwater btw
