    From what I can gather, water has ph level of about 7. Distillation shouldn't change that. I wonder why the ph level of the feser aqua is down to 2-3. Or if that has any bearing on anything at all?

    the same reason that silenX fans can push 60 cfm and be rated at 16db.

    temperature comes into bearing, the amount of carbon dioxide that has yet dissolved into the water as it comes to equilibrium, who is testing it (and how honest they are), etc. Rain water commonly tests in the 5.4-6 ph range, and that's distillation at work (yes, there are pollutants in the air too). so, just saying that water has a ph of 7 leaves out so many variables.

    still, unless the water is acidic, it should not have a ph of 2-3. wouldn't being more acidic be BAD for your loop?
