Hello All,

Have a question, but before I ask, please read below. THanks

You asked:
"Hello, I have heard that drinking DI water is bad for the human body because the water will leach Ions from the human body. Is this true? I have purchased one of these from you about a year ago and since moved and left it for the new owners of the house. I am looking at possibly purchasing another one for the new house."

It is a 1/2 truth...it is pure and wants to become "impure" again (like us)...however, the things it wants to bond again with are mostly the bad stuff (like us?)..the stuff we stripped out in the purification process...mercury, dioxin, lead, etc. So, we get a double purification process...first the water, then us.

I sent this to RO/DI dealer on ebay and this is what his reply is. What do you all think?

THanks for your replies.

James
