What's up today (bullchiting) thread.

Had a water softener at my old place and it removed tons of iron from the well water. We also used the pellets designed for high iron content. I think part of the equation is the PH of the water (or maybe we had a special softner - IDK, Culligan put it in for us after testing the water). All I know is the water was literally orange when it came out of the tap. We tried shocking the well but that didn't work well. Using the softner, the water was much better. It didn't remove it all, but probably 95% - enough that we didn't have an issue drinking it or giving it to our pets.

That Culligan lasted forever. It was over 20 years old when I left that house and only had to have one repair in all that time. Definitely couldn't complain about it.

It does not remove sulfur smell, which we would get when the water table was super high.
