a few easy ways to distill water in the uk,using a tds meter(indicates the amount of Total Dissolved Solids) to check for purity. water strait from the tap=180 ppm(parts per million), water from filter=140 ppm, water distilled using kitcken pots=23ppm, water distilled using 1st apparatuss = 8ppm

  • Do you have flouride in your water like we do in the US?

  • @JOHNNYH8STHENWO nope, just good old chlorine like they gave the jews in the concentration camps.i'd like to see some real test done on some of the trace elements...to see if they really needed for the human body

  • @681observer Can you try to do with your distillation apparatus: to distil the same water 2-3 times and check the ppm to see how it's cleaner to the single distillation, if it does change anything.

    and also to run a single time distilled water(23ppm) thru a filter to see if the filter purify anything or leave some craps in to the distilled water.

    Thanks if you do that and post the results. i'm interested to know a bit more.

    nICE VIDs !

  • @hustal69 those are good questions but i have a megahome distiller now which produces perfect 0.0(tds reading) h2o and now focus my experiments on colloidal silver.i wouldve thought it would improve it, but i would b guessn. thanks for you comment

  • @681observer lets me know if u wanna make some more experiments with water filtering...

  • @hustal69 whats your reason for distilling water...mine is to use for making colloidal silver and for preparations for economic and civilization breaking down(living off grid)+its very hard to find anywere that sells in the uk

see all

  • @681observer Chlorine actually isnt bad for the human body in small doses. About 3 drops per ever 16oz of water. what it does is kills all the bacterias that may be present in your water. Especially useful for survival out doors.

  • I am using a pressure cooker tubing is connected to a stainless steal coil in a bucket of water. I am getting water but when I measured it it was showing it was 111 ppm and my sink water measure 112. Now I know distilled water should measure 00 ppm I even ran it through a carbon filter and it read 26 ppm what am I doing wrong. and what is safe water measures in ppm if I cant get distilled water to come through HELP PLEASE what am I doing wrong with this distiller.

  • @CheeseToastHax

    I said "boiling water increased TDS" because of a comment below, someone wanted to know what TDS of boiled water would be (as if somehow less)...

    I'm a chemical engineer, lord help the world if i didnt know solids don't end up in the distillate lol.

  • @cahriisss yes, boiling water does increase the ppm. But he only took the boiling part so the minerals would stay at the bottom. and 008 is a health ppm if its minerals. So i would take maybe a very little bit of the "dust" and put it in the distiled so then its healthy and tastes good.

  • don't use the plastic tube, instead use stainless steel, not just any stainless, the one used for food (sorry, don't know the scientific label) or use glass tubes.
