Rodi for humidifier?

Hello everyone, I recently added a humidifier to my 2x4 tent. And I was using my tapwater after a couple days I noticed I was building positive pressure and saw that my carbon filter(didn’t use the sock) was getting clogged with white powder as well as my exhaust vent cover. I’m wondering if this is what powdered mildew is? It’s not on any of the girls or anywhere else in the tent.

is it as easy as changing my water source? I’m a reefer.:joy: as in SaltWaterAquariums, so I have a 7stage RODI filtration system, and I’m wondering if I can just use that water in my humidifier? By the time it comes out of the filter it has a 0TDS level. Also can I use this to water my plants if I add calmag?.

Use the filtered water mine did the same thing so I started using the RO and it no longer got that white build up

Use distilled water.

Mine did the same thing…it’s the calcium and salt buildup from the water…used distilled water
