I have a natural spring that feeds my house's water. I have been using RODI for all my water in my tank. Years ago, I used well water for top off on a small reef tank. I ran with well water as top off for 2 years. No issues. My RODI places the source water at 20-25 tds so its pretty clean to begin with. I am wondering if my RODI is needed. Is there anyway to test the water to see what those 20-25 tds are compromised of?
Can I take straight tap water, mix it with salt, and send it in for icp test to see if the water will be acceptable? Or will this not really give me a good picture of whats in the water?
Its time to replace filters, membranes, and di so I am willing to gamble on a $50 test kit to save or confirm the need for $200 in media!
