carbon water filters?




We recently bought a water filter you install on the sink and it filters the drinking water. I wonder, sometimes the water has little blackk particles on it even though its been used many times. I gather its the carbon? Is it dangerous if we continue to drink it? It smells much better than our normal water and has been working but Im worried about those black things.

I have a 10 gallon tank, with a filter and heater. I was wondering if the water is supposed to be crystal clear like when I first put the water in the tank with the water conditioner & bacteria fighter? Or is it supposed to be slightly cloudy all of the time? I’m on day 4 of the cycling proccess, and I’m supposed to go to Petco for the fish on Friday, so I don’t want the fish to die or anything in my water. Right now it’s slightly cloudy, but the right temperature. Thanks!

we have been using bottled water because someone said well water with softener would kill the plants, the cost is getting to much for bottled water,so I need to hear from someone who would really KNOW,not just guessing. there are just too many plants to risk losing.

If you have a water softener installed or have experience in buying water softeners please give me an idea of how much it should cost for me to get a water softener installed. My home is 2400 sq ft.
I was quoted ,000 installed. Does that sound right?

A trough is 14 ft long and its ends have the shape of isosceles triangles that are 4 ft across at the top and have a height of 1 ft. If the trough is filled with water at a rate of 14 ft^3 / min, how fast is the water level rising when the water is 6 inches deep?

We have hard water where I live, so we have installed a water softener. Should I bypass the softener when I water my grass. I know the water contains salt, but is it enough to kill the grass or harm the environment?

I just purchased a home and noticed that the ice and water for my Kenmore refrigerator are not working. I checked all of the water lines to make sure they weren’t frozen. It still didn’t work. So I pulled the refrigerator out and unhooked the main water line behind it from the spout. If I turn the knob to the on position nothing comes out. Where would I go in my house to get water running to this?

we had a water softener rough in installed when we built our home three years ago. we finally purchased a water softener and don’t really want to pay the installation costs. my husband is becoming handy, but is worried about trying to install it himself…especially since it has to do with plumbing. it’s a kenmore 350 series. do you think we need to pay for the installation, or should it be pretty easy?

I keep buying new water filters because the age is up on them, like the light starts turning red after so many months, but actually I don’t hardly ever use them, so if I don’t use them regularly should I have to change them according to the lights and guild lines? I don’t want to keep spending money on them every three months, if I can help it! Please Help..
