Detroit area water sucks

Mine is 700. I am investing in a RO system that has a 16gal reserve tank. I just can't take this water anymore. I can't even make spaghetti. The water just turns it to mush.

Just so you guys know, if you're growing in a humid place or in a basement, you can just hook up a drain line to a dehumidifier and get RO water all day. Mine drains into a 5 gal bucket currently.
