I wonder if you would need a UV one if you have a sediment filter due to the possibility of bacteria growth in the filter like I mentioned in the podcast. <BR/><BR/>Will do some googling if the connection holds (more storms and the phone isn't completely fixed). <BR/><BR/>You may have to tell me more about such contraptions :)<BR/><BR/>Going to do another water test as we never saw the results of the one our realtor did (although he said it was clear) and the agency has changed hands so documentation is not so easy to come by as it was all sent to head office when the company changed.Matthew Guyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00328584724146980621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12075253.post-1154968372079905652006-08-07T13:32:00.000-03:002006-08-07T13:32:00.000-03:00Great podcast!<BR/><BR/>I was interested in your water....firstly I guess the water test came back Ok when you bought the place as you are drinking it!!!<BR/><BR/>When we bought the house we are now in our test came back with soil contamination ie coliform bacteria so we have sediment filters and traps which filter out the soil and grit and also we had a UV filter installed which basically zapps the water as it comes through and eliminates and harmful bacteria.<BR/><BR/>The last place we lived in had a clear water test when we bought it but it did have a water conditioner on it like yours. We had to fill it up with the salt pellets as and when was needed but to be honest I am not quite sure what the conditioner is for....I think its mostly just for softening the water a little?<BR/><BR/>Is your well drilled or dug?<BR/><BR/>Leaks- I know what you mean!! We have a leak that comes through the windows in the basement when the rain is very heavy....oh well!!<BR/><BR/>Will be very interested to follow your journey!! :)Carolynnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12075253.post-1154946535639585352006-08-07T07:28:00.000-03:002006-08-07T07:28:00.000-03:00how's about a roving podcast on a tour of your land? together with some plans for what you are thinking of doing with it? how much land have you got there, proportion of open and wooded ground, aspect, soil...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
