This is a large residential location with about 10 people. I am searching for a filtration system for the whole house. tap water comes out at 320ppm, and they would like one filter to use fr everything, pool, showers, dishwasher, lawn... Are there any systems that drop the ppm through a filter without having a waste line? All i am hearing about is carbon filtration or water softening. They dont want water sofeteners.

There is a whole spectrum of water treatment systems around for treating water for a variety of contaminates. Solids, if your are not talking about dissolved solids, are a simple filter, but this is rarely any real problem. If you are talking dissolved solids, TSD, you probably need something more sophisticated. I would send a sample of the water to a lab that does the testing, Google "water testing lab" and see what their results or if it part of a municipal water system get their test results and their recommendations for treatment. Could be activated carbon, simple filter, reverse osmosis, distillation (although not for the volume you are talking) and possibly others or combinations of them. Google "home water treatment" to see what is available. Consumer Reports puts out a good stream of info on this, try your local library to gain access without subscribing.

www.waterfilters.net We demonstrate how to change a carbon block whole house water filter and give some key tips and tricks. Details include ...

check it out. the under the sink called the reverse osmosis filters cost $499 include install and tax comes with the carbon filter which you have to unscrew and put in new filter every six months. and the other one costs $599 with install and tax. with this one , you throw away the whole filter unlike the carbon filter one. which one is better. also there the whole house filter which comes with water softener and the under the sink filter for $2000 with tax and install. any suggestions or opinions are appreciated. thanks.

why not just get a water filter that attaches to your faucet>? they are like 25=30 bucks at walmart or target. the one I bought today was $30 and it will filter 300 gallons of water before I have to replace it.

We have a very bad problem with the municipal water supply where I live I am currently useing a 2 filter whole house water filteration system that utilises carbon filters and have to change out the filters on avere evey 2-3 weeks I some know of a better solution to the problem that is ecocomicly feasable I wopuld sure appericate it The whole area has this proble (small vilage Pop. 300) The village has done nothing to improve our water quality with the execption of adding an iron filter about 2 years ago

you must first oxidize the hydrogen sulfide. chlorine is the best method using chlorox and a chem-feed pump. this makes the gas into solid particles of sulfer oxides that can then be filtered out with a back-washing carbon filter. if dosed properly you should get 6-12 months on your carbon. under certain curcumstances you can remove this poison, flamable and corrosive gas with KDF.

We are trying to improve the quality of the water we drink and shower/bathe in, specifically removing chlorine. I feel inundated with the choices. The carbon based filter people tell you that RO water is dead and bad water because ALL the minerals are removed. Then you have like ten step carbon filters which seem pretty decent, and in a normal $100 price range. RO's are usu. $200 and up. And ionic water filters are pricey, but they alkanize the water, and you can choose the water you need, acid, alkanine, etc. for cooking, drinking. One more option is whether to get a whole house filtration system? Does NYS offer free water testing or is it done by municipality?

It seems like you have done your research pretty well judging by your comments. No one can tell you what is the best, as you have to decide which is best for your situation. All systems will purify the water, it just depends on what YOU are willing to settle for.

Your comments tell me you probably know more about this subject than anyone who will answer this question.

Go with your gut, you will make the right decision.
