The steam that rises in the distillation process will carry minute particles

with it. Triple distilling means that fewer and fewer particles are carried

each time, making it a very pure product.

"RO wastes wates."

Well, I'm not on metered water so I pay the same every month and what goes down the drain, to me, is not wasted. It goes to the recycling plant and helps to dilute all the (excuse the pun) crap all the other folks are putting down their drains!

They have had a warning around my town for months not to put old prescriptions down the drain. I guess so many people were flushing their dope that the filters couldn't keep up and we were getting the residuals in the city water! Can you believe that? Sad, sad, world we live in.

The other thing I wanted to mention about RO water is after many years of research, I concluded that RO is the only way to remove flouride. I refuse to ingest flouride and I take offense to cities that add it to the water, mine is one.

What happens when you heat flouride, chlorine, and who knows what else is in your water? Where does that steam go? Is it in your kitchen? Your garage? No one seems to be able to answer that question for me. I'm not a fan of chlorine gas, which is what you are getting by heating the water in the distiller.

My recycling plant is run on wind power. Windmills, turbines....

I don't use my distiller. I don't like the water. Maybe if I'm doing a serious fast I might drink distilled, but then I buy it at my co-op. Their water is distilled, reverse osmosised (is that even a word?), and run by an ultra violet light.

Guess living in Washington I've never had to pay much attention to water!

No, I don't leave the water on while I brush my teeth, nor do we leave the water on when we wash the work van and we never water the lawn. It turns brown in August and green by the end of September. I set a timer and take 3 minute showers. YES! You can shower clean in three mintues, try it. I also use those thingys to slow down your water in the shower and put a brick in the toilet. My garden watering is only after dark or before sunrise with a timer on that sprinkler as well. The dishwasher is always full to run, don't have a refrigerator with automatic ice maker or water in the door, dog can't reach the toilet to drink out of, am I missing anywhere to save more water so I can use my ro? LOL I do have to tell you though, my Shaklee ro is set to give me two gallons in under 30 minutes. They changed their filters and they are very fast and the outflow is very slow. So for me I feel I am able to use the filter without too much guilt. I'm sorry about the energy I use, but my health is more important.
