Florida Water ?

[JVD BVI]

I am new to Florida but have heard that calcium levels are naturally higher in the water here in Florida.

Does this translate into higher calcium levels in the saltwater we mix up, regardless of the type of mix ?

If you are using ro/di to mix your saltwater (you should be) any calcium that was in the water before being filtered is gone.

About half way down. Looks like a no if you're using RODI.

Yes, using RO/DI of course, didn't realize that filters out the calcium

Thanks

it filters out everything...........hence why 0 TDS is optimal.....TDS stands for Total Dissolved Solids

RO/DI with a 0 TDS reading is nothing but hydrogen and oxygen.
