Hi,
Good question, I believe the drinking water is good if it fit certain level of TDS Today Dissolved Solids in it. So the amount of inorganic salts (nitrates, chlorides, calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, etc. I am not the best one but i hope to get more detail answer.
Also not sure if jordan tap water is safe to drink but hope to get answer from local expert.
hope this helps

Dear Naden, Dear Aymen-2, Dear Moustafa: Thanks a lot for the questions and answers. Your questions will be sent to our water quality Expert Eng. Suzan Kilani to seek her opinion.

Tap water in Jordan is monitored around the clock for its compliance with the national drinking water standard and yes it is safe to drink directly from the tap. The Jordanian standard is derived from the World Health Organization Guidelines for Drinking Water after being tailored to the local context. Given the intermitant nature of the supply people are advised to check their house roof tanks and internal connections.

Tap water is monitored for hundreds of parameters including radionuclides while mineral water undergo less monitoring and there are many articles that consider tap water safer than the bottled water. Bottled water is not necessarily mineral water on the contrary the TDS Is taken away by RO leaving water without the essential minerals for health
eng-susan-kilani-1
The TDS level currently in the tap water of Amman is around 500 mg per litre and hardness is within the healthy limits.
I personally do not recommend having RO at home because that will strip water from the essential minerals leaving water with high affinity to dissolve anything that it comes into contact with. Human body needs the salts and minerals (cations and anions) in their natural balanced form

Good evening every one,
I am new in this wonderful forum and really happy that we have such useful forum in our arabic countries. I came back to Palestine from the USA for holidays and found out that most of people are using RO system. I am not sure maybe here in Palestine we need such system! Just in case any one can say something about wether we need RO System in Palestine then this is would be really appreciated. I have shared this article into my facebook so also people get to know wether they need it or not in Palestine.
Thank you
