I figured it would be a good idea to test the well water of the house I just moved into after getting some feedback. How concerned should I be with these results? We’ve been using Brita water pitchers for drinking water so hopefully that helps? I wouldn’t greatly appreciate any and all feedback!
Last couple filters have smoky-tasting water after a couple weeks. The one I’m on now has a taste that’s sort of fizzy/lemony, also after after just a couple weeks. My tap water tastes normal. Did a tap score test, see photo. Any idea what’s causing the filters to fail so quickly? Would another filter work better for treating these things?
Hey folks, just got my report back and still going through it. The previous owner of the house had a RainSoft system but it's over 20 years old so I don't think it's worth keeping. I believe what I need is a carbon filter and water softener combo, would you guys agree? Would something like this AquaSure at Home Depot be a good fit?
We used myTapScore to test our water. We bypassed the softener and the small sediment filter before testing the water.
It shows:
Coliform
Uranium 0.0173 ppm
Lead: 0.00077 ppm
Nickel: 0.0868 ppm
Styrene: 0.53 ppb

What would be your recommendation for whole - house filtration?
Thanks
