Water Softening & Water Filtration for Well Systems
Water filtration and water softening for well water
systems is different. Not that one is better (and yes there are two sides) but
it is different.
Municipal water sources add
chlorine (or chloramines) to treat and disinfect the water that you drink. Depending on where you live, the chlorine
level can be higher than that in a swimming pool. In other locales it is almost
non-existent. Well water, however; is
different. The water source comes from a
well that is tapped into a water table.
Sometimes it is at a depth of 60 feet, other times; it can be twice that
depth. As a result, there tends to be
more sediment found in the water, and; in some cases; more calcium and residue
due to natural erosion.
Since well water typically is not
chlorinated, a carbon block filtration medium may not be the best filtration
solution. A better solution is a cartridge that has a high flow and high dirt
loading capacity with an effective carbon "coating" that will
eliminate and minimize odor and taste. Combine that with a salt free water softener technology
and you may find a perfect solution for you and your family. If you’re interested in learning more, check
