than installed them. The owners complained of the cost to maintain and the lack of the practical value. What is your complaint about your water? Your treatment system has to be based on your water. One size doesn't fit all.

I have a complete water treatment system sitting in my barn that I removed from a customer's house. I had considered installing it on my well and decided that it was not worth the effort or maintenance cost. Admittedly, my water quality, from the ground, is pretty good, I get a little extra iron and calcium, but the water has no sediment, color, taste or odor.

The only way I would want a treatment system would be with a service contract with one of the big companies. If you can justify the expense, go for it.
