Randy,
Last week I had concerns about the amount of PO4 that could squeeze through an R/O membrane - thanks for the membrane efficiency post. I have, in search of the cause of this problem, obtained distlled water from my LDS (local drug store) and tested it with a brand new Red Sea Phosphate test kit. The kit shows a reading of .1ppm PO4 not zero as would be expected. Years ago there was copper distilled water and glass distilled water. I am told that all water nowadays is glass distilled. What do you think is at fault here - this new test kit or the distilled water?
