Suggestions for alternative well water treatment?
Living in east central CT I have both a deep well and a septic system.
Many decades ago I had my water analyzed which showed considerable levels of iron in it. As a result I had installed an "exchange tank" that each month has to have a vendor come in and exchange the tank with another containing new chemicals. I am assuming the chemicals might be a salt based substance (just a guess). The cost of this service has gone up and up over the past decades to the point where I am looking for an alternative that "might" be less dependent on an outside vendor and hopefully less expensive to support. BTW - I also have a whole house odor filter that I replace every couple of months. From those of you with similar water issues, what have you done to solve the iron and/or odor problems on your systems? Remember, I believe I'm not supposed to backwash a treatment/softener system into the septic (so I'm told). All suggestions/recommendations/ideas GREATLY appreciated. Bob |
