I have a whole house filter that uses a carbon/sediment filter (see link below). Is this adequate for filtering my tap water? I installed this prior to getting into this hobby and don't want to spend additional money on a RO system now. I used this water to start up my tank and have had good readings so far (see chart below). Just concerned about future water changes.
