Wishful thinking. Our water supply is very hard - 500 - 700 ppm
seasonally - pH 7.8 - 8.2.

Before I moved into town my water supply was surface water from the
Absaroka Beartooth wilderness. Less than 40 ppm. My apistos loved it!
After I moved Ihauled water once a week, but, it quickly became a
problem.

I've been on RO since 1987 - part of my life now.
