I let my water sit in its container for 24 hours after getting it from the sink, then ph test it, then mix my nutrients. Never had any ph problems to this day. My tap runs about 8.5, and I lower it to around 6.5.

What about EC levels?
Does allowing tap water to stand for 24 hours change the EC at all?
Straight from the tap my water is reading 0.5 (very hard).
