So I live in a rural area. We have a well which is great in terms of the water bill (we don't have one) but not so great if you don't like the smell of rotten eggs. I haven't been able to test the PPM, but I'm assuming it's crazy high. This deters me from buying a Reverse Osmosis system because I don't want to have to replace the filter every month or so. SO my question is, does anyone on GC have high PPM water and if so, how often do you have to replace your filters/membranes? The brand you use would be nice also
Mine is around 350-450 out of the tap, and I've been running mine for 6 months now without any issues. I use the cheapest from purewaterclub.com. The 50 GPD one. Even if it starts to go bad, anything is better than my tap. I can't use my tap at all for plants, I've tried a lot with no good results ever. It's better to have it and replace it than try to work with shitty city water.
