Finally, others have explained that you should let a glass of
tapwater stand for 24 hours before testing pH, because it may change
due to outgassing etc.

=================
Ours does. It goes from 7.2 to as high as 7.6 after several hours.



I got you beat. My comes out of the tap at 7.0. But if I run an
airstone in it for an hour it goes over 8.

===========
They run CO2 gas in the lines to help keep scale down. At least that's what
I was told.
