Hi,
I just got back my water test results. I own a home in NC that we are moving to. The well is pumping 15 gpm from the well head. The water is turned off so I couldn't test flow from inside the home. The water looked clean with no sulfur smells of tannins that I could see. The bacteria test showed no bacteria of any kind. I would appreciate any advise on what filters I would need, if any. I think I might have a scale problem. The house is plumbed in PVC. I was thinking of just getting a Catalytic carbon filter and a small 10" sediment filter and maybe a UV. Any advice appreciated. Thanks
