About to throw in the towel.

I'm going to my dentist next Friday I'll ask him about the teeth falling out. I'll bet you think all the distilled water I drank while I was underway for 6 months in the Navy made my teeth fall out too. Oh wait, I still have my teeth.
Distilled and Deionized are the same?

No not exactly the same. Deionized physically removes the contaminates, while distilled boils the water off and leaves the contaminates behind. Either way, you're getting the really pure water that is claimed to make your teeth fall out due to being too pure.

I never heard of teeth falling out, that's for sure.
Why would any WANT to drink DI water? It doesn't taste right.
We find that nearly everyone who claims to think it tastes fine are using systems that run the DI water through carbon. Guess what - its not DI water after it goes through carbon! There were (are?) plenty of cut-rate mis-configured RODI systems on ebay like this.

Be aware that RO water, and DI water are very different beasts. Just taste the two side by side.
Agreed.

I priced how much it would cost to have a tooth pulled and got around$300
so it would be cheaper to drink the water:bounce1:
But about your problems, I can say with all humility it will get better:celeb2:
We came to within 2 hours of foreclosure because my husband got really sick and was out of work for 2 years.
There really is a rainbow out there somewhere, sometimes it harder to see it

Well, this is an older post that was dragged up from the depths. I have since gotten a tax return and a good amount of work and paid some credit cards off. The tank sat fallow for 2-2 1/2 months and is now FOWLR. Everything is now happy and I am working on a failsafe system for RO/DI water that will drain if it overfills.
I figured out that the float switch got stuck in its down position as it filled and overflowed. It hangs past vertical when emptied below and locked on it's inside hang (if that makes sense to you). I am also going to get some fishing line and make a string harness so it cannot do that again as it wouldn't be able to hang all the way down.
Out of chaos comes order. I am back on track. =)
