Yipes!

I wonder if I did something wrong during installation, but it was
basically
just a swap of one unit for another. Well, I guess I can try the
chlorination
technique.

No water treatment (other than softening) was ever necessary before;
it's city
water, usually not a problem. A little hard, but otherwise OK.

Just FYI, the links in the FAQ don't work using Netscape. They work
fine
using IE.

Thanks for the tips.

You may want to sanitize your water softener. Reducing types of bacteria
can colonize softeners.
