My softener goes off once every 2 weeks. So where is the water stored during that time? When I need water it comes from wells in the city into my house into the hot water heater. This holds 30 gallons but I must use more than that in that peiod of time plus it gets replaced with new water. I’m totally confused on this subject.

It was only purchased last year, and is a Hamilton Beach unit that offers cold or hot water. The light is red for the hot water, and doesn’t come on at all anymore. Thanks in advance..

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.

I saw a water ionizer for sale that looked like a water filter that ran on electric and hooked up to a sink faucet… How do I ionize my own water without having to by the expensive ionizer? How dose this thing work ? What do i have to do to the water?

Is one better for you than the other?

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?

Dasani Strawberry Kiwi Essence?




Dasani has these (relatively) new unsweetened lightly flavored waters… i’ve been drinking them lately and really enjoy the taste. It may just be my imagination, though, but i seem to not feel well later on, on days when i drink the water.
The ingredients are filtered water, natural flavors and citric acid.
None of that can make you sick, huh?

Anyone have any experiences with this beverage?
