Good point GB, bacteria will grow in any type of water and the longer it stands the more contaminated it becomes. Water older than two weeks needs dumping. Why would you risk spreading legionnaires for the price of a few pence. Really silly and majorly dum.
Your tds meter will not show bacteria content.

A friend of mine who is a doctor and works in a contagious decease hospital said I need not worry ab legionnaire disease as it is not rife in today world as it is not easily spread .
