Water softeners? How do you tell the difference between one "set" for city water and one for well water?

Is there any difference or is this just a scam?

    Water softeners are sized by how many grains of hardness per gallon they can process. More hardness and you need a larger resin tank.

    What you need to do is get a TDS reading and a hardness reading on your water. You can get a little hardness kit at many hardware stores for cheap.

    Or you can send your water in to some places and they will check it for you.

    Many cities have pretty soft water, so a softener may not be much difference. Well water is typically high in mineral since its untreated water coming out of the ground.

    Softeners are great to have. Mainly for using less soap and your clothes look great and last longer.

    I highly recommend dub dub dub dot softenerparts dot com for assistance in choosing a softener. Andrew is a great guy and we have used him as our softener equipment source for several years.

    He will tell you exactly what you need and cut through the b.s. you may be getting from salesmen.

    It's given that it's five boroughs, while such a lot towns slightly duvet one county. NYC was once at first Manhattan and side of The Bronx, however then the opposite boroughs determined to become a member of. That and the truth that it has an overly prime populace density (30,000 men and women in step with rectangular mile, whilst the norm for such a lot towns is round 10,000 in step with rectangular mile) method it would are compatible extra men and women right into a restricted house. The density is accordingly of being pedestrian- and transit-pleasant, alternatively than establishing across the auto like plenty of Western towns. I desire this know-how was once very handy.
