Some of my neighbors have the problem so bad the water is brown as mud..mine isn't that bad but has a distict flavor and stains everything eventually.
Carbon filters work for a while and reduce conductivity of the water by about 2/3rds but the organisms grow in the filter and make the water smell like a swamp.
A plain old Britta pitcher kept in the fridge has worked well.. It's too cold for the organisms to grow in the fridge.
I shock the well with swimming pool chlorine twice a year. Chlorox works but is more slippery feeling.
I dumped a gallon of CS in the well this fall and the water has been OK..but I forgot about that water going to the septic tank.

I use the chemfree iorn filter, works very well. But these are whole house fileters, not for just a kitchen. I don't know if iron would stop up an RO unit or not.<<<<

Primarily want one to filter out iron. I haven't done any searching on the web, yet. Thought I would ask for recomendations here first. I think I remember reading about an RO with some sort of silver/ceramic filter. Anybody have links, comments? CU - <mailto:[email protected]>[email protected]
