Its the lack of minerals then. Is that not taken out by rodi? Would that not make it unhealthy then also? I though read a thread on that someplace and it was stated that the minerals lost can be compensated for elsewhere? Most people purchase store ro water to drink. I see on the dispenser where one can add minerals. Doubt many use it ? I dont know.

Well both really. Your drinking water is now soft too. So you are not getting the proper minerals there either.
No, the RO unit does not remove the all the minerals, RO units are only filters, nothing more.
Yes minerals can be put back into your water, why bother though? Just don't remove them in the first place.
From what I have been told/read what a person is supposed to do in the home is to take the line from the well and filter it with a in-line canister filter. From there you tee the line. One goes to your softener. The other goes to your cold water tap in the kitchen and to your outside taps. You would use this for drinking, watering flowers, lawn, etc. and to feed your R/O unit.
