It’s for my venus fly trap, since tap water won’t cut it and rain water seems to unreliable, especially since I live in an apartment.

I looked online and lots of people say Boots, but when I checked their website, they only sell purified water on prescription, for some reason? I don’t think my GP will write out a prescription for my plant, so…

does anyone know where in London I can buy distilled or purified water?

I live in an apartment complex that DOES have a water softener but I think the PH levels are out of wack because several of the people in the building complain about itchy skin, scalp issues and those of us with blonde hair now have rust/orange colored hair.
When the landlord is confronted he states that the water company has already come out and things are "fine".
I on the other hand tend to disagree … because my hair is still a rustic orange instead of a beautiful blonde – and my scalp is still flakin’ up a storm.

My skin shouldnt feel like it is, my scalp shouldnt be giving me flake issues and for the amount of money I spend on my hair it shouldnt be orange…. PLEASE HELP

Can someone with a similar situation please suggest a Shower Filter that has worked for them – I’d like the name of a brand of Filter – not just a store where I can find one (most of the ones HD, Lowes and what not carries only takes out Chlorine, I need one that takes out Iron as well.

Thank You!

I’m allergic to fluoride. I am 18 and I’m moving out and into a apartment. What can I get to filter fluoride from my shower? My parents had a whole house system but I can’t afford that what should I do?

I just moved into an apartment and the water is awful. When it first comes from the faucet, it tastes fine but smells like metal or rust, but then after leaving it out for a while, it tastes metallic. Would getting a faucet or water pitcher filter give me safe drinking water? Should I start buying bottled water instead of a filter?
This is in Richardson, TX

It started about a week ago out of the blue. I have lived in my home for 4 years, but this just now started happening. Whenever we turn the water on, whether to use the shower or washing clothes, the pipes make this loud droning noise. If the shower is already running, and someone flushes the toilet, in addition to making the sound, the water will sputter erratically. If the noise starts with just the shower on, if I turn the shower off, the noise will stop. It is very loud (you can hear it throughout the entire house!) and I’m worried the pipes are getting ready to burst or something. I’ve tried to be as descriptive as possible so someone can give me some sort of explanation as to what is going on. In my last apartment, the pipes made noises all the time, whether the water was running or not. I was told with older buildings, sometimes you get air in the pipes (the complex was built in the 60s). However, this noise is completely different.

Hi there folks,

I tried to search for companies that deliver those big gallons of purified water in Richardson,TX but I guess Im not using the right search string…how should I search?

I dont have any issues with tap water but the water out of my tap has a funny smell/ taste to it. Like its about to or has just rained. Like how wet soil smells.
I live in an apartment complex.
Buddy of mine lives in across the parking lot in the same apartment complex and his tap water is OK.
What should I do????
Please help !

I know the best water filter would be one that filters the entire house, but I live in an apartment and would like to know the beset water filter that you can install. I’d really like one that filters out pathogens and other small particles…are there any that do this for a shower head? Or is filtering chlorine the best you can do?

I live in an older apartment complex and have noticed that my tap water has this unpleasant, sweet smell to it. I notice it particularly when I’ve been away…I don’t know if that’s because I’m used to it or because it’s something that builds up and smells stronger when the water isn’t run for a few days. I filter my water before I drink it with a Brita pitcher, but am still concerned about what might be in my water. Anyone have any suggestions?

My bathtube faucet has been running (lightly) for 2 days. I want to wait till the end of the week to report it to my landlord because I don’t want them coming in to fix it this week. They come at the worst times and this week I will be sleeping late and having my lover over. I want to wait till late in the week so that they will come when it is convenient to me. They always have the worst timing. It is just running nonstop (the hot water) in a steady stream. I know it is wasting water, but that isn’t the issue. I just don’t want to deal with them coming in my apartment this week. I work evenings and sleep late in the mornings and don’t want to be disturbed whenever they decide to pop in.
this faucet has leaked twice before and I have had them come in to fix it but they are not professionals so they really dont’ know how to fix it right. It began to have a light driip within a week of being fixed both times and I get tired of having to wait around and make sure I am dressed and up in case they come in early.

The apartment that I moved into had a pur filter already installed onto the faucet, I hate it! I understand that you are supposed to be able to twist it off but no matter how i twist it, it just spins on the faucet. Any suggestions on how to get it off?
I understand how it’s supposed so be removed, but it’s not working, the top screw part spins with no result. any other ideas?? I’m to the point of destroying it but don’t know how to do that either

I applied a plastic laminate on the counter top around a year ago. I was trying to remove the plastic laminate but it was not coming out properly.
As I live in a rented apartment , I have to remove the plastic laminate before I move out.
Is there an easy way to remove the plastic laminate from the countertop and make it clean?
Thank you.

I would like to clean or lubricate my kitchen sink faucet so that it can move left to right more easily. Do I have to take it apart to do this? What cleaning products or lubricants should be used?
I rent the apartment so I can’t get a new faucet. I would only like to clean or lubricate the faucet.
Corky is on the right track. It’s a single handled unit where the faucet part comes out with a hose attached, and you can switch between many small streams of water or one big stream. I forget the manufacturer but it is probably delta or moen.

Many of my plants are sensitive to the chemicals found in our tap water (flouride, salts, chloride, etc) but i cannot afford to keep buying specialized water for them. So my paIm have brown spots on the leaves and my spathes have brown tips.

I hear rainwater is great, but it dosent rain everyday, plus i live in an apartment-which makes rainwater collecting awkward. I have about 26 plants. mostly tropical foilage and maybe a few succulents……

The bathroom in my apartment has separate hot and cold faucets which make it very difficult to shave and wash your hands since you only get either piping hot or ice cold water. Is there any way to connect these without replacing the sink? I don’t want to invest too much money into a place I am renting.
