  • My local water is very hard, around 360 ppm, and my condensing dryer measures around 35 ppm, roughly the same as rainwater (33-34 ppm). Anything under 40 ppm is good for cleaning windows and car bodywork as it won't leave water spot marks or streaks, even on hot and sunny days. Similarly for topping up car washer fluid reservoir. I also use a pressure vessel with resin material to achieve 10 ppm for final car laminar-flow rinse. Do follow dryer advice on cleaning to avoid fabric softener leaching from build-up.
  • I googled, it said it is ok to dink...Would not drink it. But seriously contemplating watering my house plants with it...I know some plants are sensitive to chlorine, so would help with that.
