This will enable us to have way smaller reservoirs and thus enables us to spend about $10 every 2 weeks on distilled water at safeway.
Keep in mind w/ dwc / 5 gal. buckets while in flower my plants use about 1.5 gal. a day . Your still gonna be runnig for water all the time . R/O is the way to go .

xcrispi Reviewed by xcrispi on . Where do you guys get your distilled water? I was looking into having spring water delivered in 5 gal containers, like the type that goes upside down on a cooler, and also I guess you can take those same containers and go to your local grocery store to refill. I was looking on ebay at reverse osmosis water purification systems that run about $80-$160 for good ones. Is using distilled water the intermediate step between tap and RO? Also, how much do you pay and where do you go to get you're distilled water? We have a 24 gal reservoir Rating: 5
