I have a chlorine injection system pumping in to two 120gl retention tanks. From there I have a 2x9 blue GE filter canister that filters out the oxidized iron and other solid that may be inthe line. Due to my higher iron levels in the water I have to change this filter out ever 2 to 3 weeks...

I noticed a brownish stain coming from the hot water side of system and tracked it down to the hot water tank. I don't get anything from the cold side. I took the anode rod out and found that it mostly gone, so I am thinking the inside of the tank is starting to rust from water getting at it...

These are the results from my home water test kit on my well water, Iron - 3ppm Chlorine - 0ppm PH - between 7 and 8 Alkalinity - 230 Hardness - 90ppm (5 grain) Can a standard water softener take care of the iron and hardness or will I need some special treatment. These number don't...

Anyone know if any of the big box stores sells the perforated pipe for a septic leach field. Thanks

Anyone happen to know a company in Canada I could buy this stuff over the counter, I need some carbon. I know I can easily buy from the US and maybe this is a long shot posting here but worth a shot. Thanks Alex

Do they work and save money by insulating the tank from heat loss? I have an electric 40gl and Hydro rates going up 15% next month.

I have a blue whole house canister type filter for removing sediment and rust among a few other things. I have a surface well also. After a month or so I start to notice a pressure drop and that tells me it time to change it, this starts to get expensive when I need to change 12 a year. Is...

I have a 8*44 mineral tank that is about 1/2 full of active carbon media, can more be added or is there a certain amount of upper space needed for it to run properly. My control head has a top basket to keep the media from being backwashed out. Thanks

I have a 1/2hp jet pump in the basement hooked up to a WX-202 20gl(total volume) well-x-trol tank. In there sizing chart is keeps referring to a minimum 1 minute pump runtime, when mine runs is for 30 seconds or so. I have the right size tank as per the chart and my pressure on the pump and...

Does anyone know what's in a turbidity filter and how often it needs replacing.

I had to replace my pressure switch so I installed a 30/50, the old one was a 20/40 and I also up'd the pressure tank to 28. My problem is when I run a bath it seems as though I am putting the water through my tannis filter to fast and it not removing the stain. When I use any other tap...

What's the prefferred method in cleaning the contact ont he switch. I have noticed in the last few days the switch turns on but the contacts don't make a good contact and then the pump won't turn on until I give it a little tap. I have had a switch break years back but this one is still together.

A couple of weeks ago I changed my failed jet pump with a new one and the pressure was set to 20/40, my old one was 30/50. I dropped the bladder tank down to 18 for now but I want to go to 40/60. The instructions on roughly tell me how to go to 30/50. Do I just keep turning the screw and...

Can I switch to patassium from salt on my Culligan softner. Will it damage anything?

What's the best way to put a cover over my sump hole. I have the plastic lid but I think with water always in the pit it causes to much moisture in the basement. Thanks

pump keeps going off every hour For the last day I have heard the well pump going off every hour or so. I have no leaks so I am thinking my one way valve before the pump is slightly open allowing pressure to return to the well. I have a 30 foot surface well with 1 1" solid line run in to the...

How can I tell when it's time to get my Brine changed in my salt filter. I seem to have to run a manual re-charge ecen though my water usage has not increased. I had the system installed almost 3 years ago to the day. Thanks

Does a propane hot water tank cost less to run than an electric model. I mean actual money cost to operate per month.

I have my recharge happen at 3am but it never stopped last night. It was still running 3 hours when we woke this morning. Usually it runs for 1 hour. This softner is a Culligan mark 88. Is there anything I can check for before calling them in for service. Thanks

Ok, after 6 months of using my well water in my kettle I get a blackish coating on the walls of the kettle. This coating make the water smell slightly..... I'd say dirty. You can kind of smell it when the water is boiling. So I use CLR in it to remove the deposits and were good for another 6...
