Share 2 Posted by Venkatesh on June 25, 2012 - 16:00

Hi,

I have a Kent RO system and water from it, when kept in a plastic bottle, smells like kerosene. Can somebody please help us and tell us why this happens? I bought a TDS meter and it shows 40 to 50ppm value. The Kent service engineer could not rectify. I have a 2 year old kid and would like to take all possible precautions.

Thanks

Hi all,

I was using Cello water bottle and have been using it for some time. Today I noticed some kerosene smell in the bottle. I always have used only water in it. Can any one can some light on this? Is this a problem with the plastic?

Check your bottle MOC and grade of plastic. Keep it in another glass bottle and check it. There can be no other reason except the bottle  MOC. If you can, check the overhead tank.
