If I built a new house, its would have the RO

You don't need to wait....

Find some sucker to dump the RO problem on. A good distiller is MUCH
better. Boiled water is 100% safe when it comes from steam!

Oh, and don't let them sell you all this acid crap to make the inside of
the boiler squeaky clean every time, eating the boiler. Just rinse out the
calcium deposits and gook from the boiler once in a while and it's fine....

You can put mud in a distiller and you get perfect water out of it!...(c;

Actually, my father-in-law has a distiller and
uses it, so I've had a chance to see one up close
and personal. Distillation is a good way to make
purified water, but it does use a fair amount of
electricity.

On a boat it would be interesting to have a solar
powered distiller that used a focusing lense or
reflector to heat the sea-water. Does anyone make
such a device?
