Magnetic method to clean PFAS contaminated water

I’m not worried about that. I have a counter top RO machine made out of plastic but the water comes out at nearly 0ppm TDS, and it flows through the machine slowly, at low temp, and for a short time. Whatever is in there is orders of magnitude less than you would find anywhere else, it’s basically laboratory grade pure water.

Which machine do you have? I’ve been looking for a decent countertop RO system without much success.

AquaTru. I'm pretty happy with it, purchased it used on eBay and put new filters into it.

RO Buddy is a good starter if you just want to try for 60ish dollars.

I know you’re joking, but I do add mineral drops to bring the TDS back up.

Do you have a brand you like? I'm thinking of getting a countertop device soon and they sell a "re-alkalizes it" version but I don't know if that's "enough" and of the right type and I'd like to cover my bases in case it's not.
