Yup, if you pump RO far enough, it's no longer pure. Do you ever use glass pipes, or pvc pipes?
Also, RO doesn't seem to remove weak ions. I presume this means H+ and OH- also? Distilling does this a little better, which is what gives you the lower pH values. RO is very slightly acidic also.
I wonder how many wise ass homeowners have put RO systems in their garage, only to have it run through the water heater and all the copper/brass in their home.
