Water reading with Tds meter.
« on: January 28, 2012, 07:31:10 pm »
I was chatting to a fellow wc earlier. He told me that as one of his side lines he charges custies £10 to test the hardness of their water with his tds meter. He said custies with dishwashers etc need to know the readings etc.
Anyone else do this? If not think I may try myself seems like a good little earner to me lol!!

Sounds good.  But would feel bad charging them for something that takes seconds, id add it on as part of the service myself!  Would feel like too much of a con artist!

a tds meter doesn`t tell you how hard or soft water is. no household needs to know how many desolved particals are in their water

It would be cheaper for them to buy their own TDS meter.

They do indeed, however they also only need a bucket of water and a cloth to clean their windows b.ut they are too busy to do this.
