Right, I just didn't recognize the abreviation.
I looked at two reverse osmosis systems and I was over the maximum iron
content for one and over the maximum hardness for the other. I'll look
at iSpring.

Reverse Osmosis.
It's a way to filter water out to pretty much tasteless. The iSpring
system I mentioned is a reverse osmosis system. It passes the water
through several filters and then a reverse osmosis membrane which can
filter out impurities larger than 0.001 micron. The remaining stages
are related to treating the water such that any impurities that the
membrane can't filter out are either removed or rendered tasteless.
I considered putting a whole house one in, but figured I only cared
about what I was drinking/eating. I'm ok with showering in the water
which tastes slightly bad but doesn't smell bad. If the water had an
odor, I'd be figuring out how to cancel that out at the head end...

If it is RO I would think you would not need a softener after it.

We put a whole house filter system by Morton in our cabin
recently. Seems pretty decent. Nicest feature is there are no
filters to change. It flushes the filters like a water software
flushes when recharging. Only downside is you have to have it
by a drain, just like a water softener. For city water it
installs before the water softener, but for well water, it
installs after the water softener.
Seems to work pretty well.

Is that an under the sink system or a whole house system?

can smell and taste it.
There's already a salt water softener and that helps
quite a bit, but
I'm looking at other some of these filter systems to put
inline as
well. Wondering if this crowd has opinions or preferred
brands for that
stuff. All 2c opinions are welcome.
I'm also not sure about UV sterilization vs a chlorine
injector system.
Seems like the UV is less maintenance because all you do
is change the
bulb once a year, but IDK it's my first time looking at
this stuff. Any
opinions on that?
