Title: pure water????
Post by: dave park on February 27, 2011, 03:48:06 pm
Hi guys,

i was just wondering, once water has been purified does it have a "shelf life"? ???

Might seem like a daft question but I'm just getting into wfp and will be getting water from a mate,
i don't want to take more than i'll use if it's going to degrade before i use it.

Thanks in advance for any replies ::)

I dont think it will degrade if its in a covered container but if you leave it stood for too long it could get legionnaires bacteria in it and thats not good.

2 weeks should be ok.
Some say 2 weeks is too long, a week not enough and 10 days is just right.
Ignore `um; 2 weeks is ok.

Two Weeks? Good heavens :o

Before I finally stopped cleaning windows, I had just one monthly job I used to do.  A tank full of water lasted me six months - still the same TDS as the day I put it in there ;)

Thanks guys ;)

The only reason i asked was that some one told me it would begin to degrade after 2-3 days,
mind you, he was trying to sell me an RO set up  ::) ::)

Thanks, i think it'll be much better getting a couple of weeks worth at a time then instead of meeting up 2 or 3 times a week and waisting his time :D :D Espcially as we both like a chat and before you know it-BOOOOM-its dinner time ;D ;D
