I'm living rural enough to have a well and the ground around this entire part of "town" consists of just clay and thus the water has very high contents of various minerals and is quite hard. The house is fitted with a system from LifeSource. It's supposedly a maintenance-free system with plenty of throughput that does not require filter changes, tank exchange, salt additives and the likes - at least that's what they claim. More information can be found here LifeSource Water: Whole House Water Systems
Right before I moved to this place 2 years ago, I underwent back surgery and have therefore not brewed since, and subsequently had no reason to send the water for testing (I used to do this twice a year where I lived before). In other words, I have no idea what I'm dealing with. But now I'm healthy enough and ready to get going with brewing , so water is a priority once again. The water system is well past its service life and I'm now looking to replace it before I get going. So before I send the water for testing, I'm replacing the whole house system first.
Instead of defaulting to replacing it with a new LifeSource system, I wonder what members here with a well on their property are using for their whole house filtration.
