Thank you @jsker roughly how long it will take to produce lets say 50 gallons?

In the link there is a 50 and 100 gallon per day. With the 50 gpd one, it would take about 29 minutes per gallon or 2.08 gallons per hour, that time would be cut in half with the 100 4.16 per hour. For a few dollar more I would suggest the 100 gpd.

Also if have the room, not too difficult to hook up a container, some valves, and switches that allow you to make water when not there.

All told a ro/di filling station. Will add between $20-150 depending on how much water you want to hold.

Seriously cheap handhelds precalibrated on Amazon. I didn't think it would do that good but going strong and accurate for 2 years now.

Thank you :) i;ll make an order soon

Just wanted to give you guys an update.

I just got my TDS meter and did few tests.

1) My tap water : 89 ppm (so a big no)
2) Dasani drinking water (67 ppm!!!) @ruth howard this is what i've been using to topup
3) I managed to find another local water brand called "Life" and it's just 3 ppm. So I'm gonna use that hereafter :)
