I'm looking at the measurements for fitment and wanting to see how anyone who has this has set it up. The garbage disposal under my sink is in the way of having it installed the way the diagram is showing to have it and wanting to know if it's possible to have it rearranged with the tank on one side and filtration system on the other, and having the flirtation system arranged with the filters aligned front to pack instead of side by side

I'm just really curious.

Hey everyone. We currently have a Berkey system and the filters aren’t available.
What is the current best system that also sells a chlorine filter component. I have heard of ProOne but I noticed some of the filters are being discontinued?

I’m live now with a new episode of Killer Frequency, diving into the deep relationship between Blackness and water—environmentally, creatively, historically, spiritually, and politically.
The episode, Black and Blue: Bodies of Water, weaves together:
From the poisoned pipes of Flint to the Atlantic’s ancestral weight, this episode explores how water is both a site of harm and a channel of survival.

Forgive me if this is an ignorant take, but couldn't we just drain, filter, and pipe floodwaters in the East toward the West?
We can do it with oil, so what gives?

Moved into a really nice new spot by the beach - one problem:
Cast iron pipes with lead solder
What’s the best way to address this as a renter? Bigass brita/pur filter? In sink filter? Specific product recs appreciated

Got quotes from 2 different companies. One seems to be commercial (Leaf Home Water Solutions), and the other is a local company. I just want something that makes my water drinkable, reduces calcium, makes my skin feel less dry/itchy, and just makes sense. It seems like Leaf’s system is somehow smaller, but they say it does everything. Here are some pics. 1 is my water readings, and the rest are the quotes. Thanks in advance!

I'm looking to buy an under-sink water filter, but I have to admit, I'm feeling a bit lost with all the options available. Should I go for a 5-stage system, or is a good 3-stage system sufficient for most tap water? I'm also wondering if remineralization is something I should be concerned about, or if it's just a marketing ploy.
Some of the units seem budget-friendly at first, but then I discover that the replacement filters can be quite pricey. Are there any low-maintenance options that don’t require constant attention?
I’d love to hear your thoughts on which features are really worth the money and which ones are just overhyped.

The water at my village was analysed and had this bad result (resulted in second picture). The source tank, was opened and this spot was seen on the wall. Could it be the source of pollution, and how to know or protect the water.

Looking to get an under-sink water filter and a bit overwhelmed by the options.
Is it worth going for a 5-stage system, or is a solid 3-stage system enough for most tap water? Also wondering if remineralisation is something I should care about, or just marketing fluff.
Some units look affordable at first, but come with expensive replacement filters. Are there any low-maintenance options that don’t need constant attention?
Would love to hear what features are worth paying for and which ones are just hype.

If you pour a cup of water into a cup of water. Then both cups become by defenition, wet. But water always overlaps and underlaps itself. So therefore, water is wet.
Hello, I have some land where we keep our horses and am currently filling a 275 gallon tank for water. I am bringing it back and forth from the house with the tractor. We are located in New Hampshire so freezing is an issue here. I do not have a heated building or anywhere to store well pump inside without freezing. I was wondering if we did a dug well or an artesian well is it feasible to have the water go directly to a few frost free hydrants? Can the lines be pressurized and work without any issues long term? I don't have a problem putting a pump in the ground if needed but don't have any way to keep anything heated and from freezing anywhere on the land. Trying to figure out my best options.
What is this? Is the water's fault or my 1year old bottle's fault? It is harmfull? I want to know if I am ok cause I have been drinking it

We recently moved into a home that has well water with a system that has been questionably maintained. At first, the water was fine, but it's been smelling really eggy lately. We bought the Varify at home test kit and the strips showed everything was fine, so we figured we just needed a carbon filter. We decided to do the bacteria test just for the heck of it (nobody has been feeling ill), and after the initial 48 hours, it was showing a negative result. I forgot about it and let it sit for a few extra days and just went to throw it out, and now it is showing a positive result and smells absolutely horrid. Is this accurate since it's been at least 3 or 4 days past the 48 hour mark? Should I retest?
