Well water filtration is an integral part of your whole house water system. Did you know that at the very bottle of your water well is a filtration screen that helps prevent debrix from getting into your well pump. This well screen helps prolong the life of your water pump by filtering out sand, rock and larger particles that would effect the efficiency and effectiveness of your submersible or jet pump.
This initial water filtration step does not affect the concentration of dissolved minerals such as calcium and magnesium, the cause for water hardness. Ever have problems getting your soap to lather? If you do, its usually because you have “hard” water which is an increased concentration of calcium and magnesium in your water. Its not bad but you can do something to reduce the concentrations.
