We followed the directions at http://www.cleanwaterstore.com/resource/calculators/how-to-determine-pump-flow-rate-on-systems-with-pressure-tanks/ and found our pump flow rate to be 21 gpm. Thanks for any input or advice.

Still need some advice... We are at the point where we are ready to buy and install a system. Here is an update of my information from some water testing we had done at the pool store. pH - 7.0 Total Alkalinity - 145 Total Hardness - 279 Iron - 1.9 Manganese - None Iron Bacteria - Yes We have...

Got the blue ball back in place and we have clear and soft water again. Thanks for the manuals. Will keep those in a safe place. This is the third time that the little blue check ball has gotten dislodged from where it is supposed to be. Any advice on how to keep the thing from getting stuck in...

Thanks, I'll check out the Katalox Light media and yes, the sprinklers are not set up ideally, but we actually have not turned them on yet since moving in to the house. The drip irrigation will be in a fairly small garden (50' x 25'), so it should not need to be irrigated too long each day...

We moved in to a house with a well (Hardness 180+ ppm, Iron 5+ ppm, pH about 6.5) with iron bacteria. We have up to 1/2 acre of landscaping and garden (with drip irrigation) that we are preparing for spring and we need to get some kind of iron filtration so we can use drip irrigation and...

Enigma-We chlorinated the well before we changed the resin and the hot water chlorination should not have effected the water softener since it comes before the hot water heater. When my husband checked it out, one of the little blue check balls was lodged in a channel in the head. Could that...

Thank you. We will check it out. We did check and make sure that the water softener was not in bypass, so that is ok.

Ok, that's what we thought too. We have been in this new house for a month (that was sitting for 6 months) and so far we have replaced the resin, cleaned the softener head parts, cleaned all of the tanks, cleaned out the salt mush and replaced the salt, changed the hot water heater anode and...

In our attempt to have soft, iron-free, and smell-free well water, we replaced a corroded anode and flushed our hot water heater with a chlorine solution. Before this, our water softener (Kinetico 60) was doing its job and kept our water soft and iron free (although we had the rotten egg smell...
