Updated: Jul 6, 2023


Every one has one question about drinking water some says TDS should be between 80 to 150 , some says water without a certain amount of TDS is bad for health

First let us understand what TDS is as everyone is known to the fact that TDS is measured in PPM (Parts per million) means one PPM is one MG/liter (Milli Gram/Liter) means 1000 TDS is 1000 mg/liter of water which no one drinks max our taste buds feel sweetness in water unto 200 PPM or 250 PPM if water is cold ,


so for taste wise all privileged ones who have choice to not drink water above 250 PPM for taste reasons not health reasons as per WHO ,Bureau of Indian standards ( BIS ) water up to 500PPM is drinkable in extreme non availability of water it says up to 2000 ppm and there is no such lower limit defined by any standardizing agency. with lot of other specific limits to various mineral elements which no one can measure see individual limits for BIS packaged drinking water




so no one knows what mineral elements are present in our Raw water from supply or from borewell.


borewell water can have pesticides ,urea, phosphate as water seeps in from farmlands which uses these chemicals for farming and industrial pollution and same with city water supplies contamination can enter from anywhere from ruptured pipelines to our storage tanks.


Me saying known fact to every one , Once we process our water through RO system it removes max part of TDS say some unto 99.7 % in commercial ro plants & in domestic ro unto 90 To 95 %,


But mixing back raw water to adjust TDS is of no use as

we are mixing unknown pollutants back to our drinking water called TDS Adjuster with Uf AND uv Filtration

In commercial systems one can have PH correction in place to dose sodium bicarbonate to increase pH ,but in domestic RO Systems on can not achieve with same addition with any claimant alkaline cartridge as ,dissolving speed of any mineral will increase with time and will not remain constant so i personally don't trust them. so called alkaline cartridges to five Mineral addition.


final conclusion it is better of with less mineral flat water instead water having pesticides ,fluoride, arsenic , lead etc. which we can unknowingly add bac to our drinking water in the name of balanced TDS.


At most we can add sodium bicarbonate in water measuring Ph levels of pH boosted water with ph paper /meter
