I was wondering if it was worth doing an ICP test on RODI water?

Sorry, just another dumb question of mine lol.
 
Usually a TDS meter is fine. City water reports are good enough for me along with a TDS meter. If you are getting 0 tds water, it should'nt be a big issue. However, ATI offers it with their ICP test for your tank which is nice. I did this on someone's rodi system to see what was going into the DI resin.
 
I recently did an ICP test. On 2 sources. NSW I use for water changes and my DT.
Will I do it again? Nope.

It took very long for results. They made mistakes on readings.
Its just not worth the cost IME.
I don't trust the readings I got back.
Possibly just the service I used idk.

Maybe if you are looking for something specific. If there is some parameter/water issue your dealing with.
But I think for basic tests, its not worth it.
 
I just did an ATI test last week. Had results in about a week (even with it going to Germany). Plus, their test includes the RODI test.
