Clean Water?

Clean Water:

I am an over the road truck driver for the lower 48. I used to use Nalgene water bottles but switched to stainless steel. The Nalgene were notorious for collecting slimy particles and black mold. The mold was in patches. The stainless steel bottles are getting spots of black mold, like a dot.

The truck stops have water in their beverage machines. They use city water but are supposed to filter that water before it goes into the beverage, ice and coffee machines. Perhaps they don't because of replacement filter costs.

I do not use bottled water because of costs and the source is usually city supplied water.

I suggest everyone get a test of their tap water for content, minerals and other substances in the microscopic levels.

We buy bottled water for the bottles. I'll use the water that comes in the bottles for the coffee makers, cat water, etc.! Our well water is full of minerals and electrolytes! Tastes great!

I miss mountain water. Too bad you can’t pack one of those big jugs. We have a whole house UV and RO due to all the farm fields around us.

We have the best tasting prue water ever. Our well is 650 feet deep through solid basalt. Nowhere around us has ever been farm land, just mountains. I drink out of the creeks and springs around here too.
