We had well water, at last home for 34 years. It has some lime in . Put a whole house filter on it and sediment anything else was filtered out. The little lime in contributed to flavor. The filter helped to gather some of the lime. We use to take gallons of it to Mom and Dad an their neighbors in town. We filled the Mh with it many times.
Here we have awful "city water." There's a spring and when time lets me I'm going to have county check a sample. Must be good it has been used for a thousand years. Either I'm going to use it or have a well, nearer the house, drilled. It'll have a little lime I'm sure.Community sources, from the ,are now not the best thing to be in our systems.
We drink, water, tea etc through the filter in our refrigerator for now.
If I can find a large enough whole house filter using the newer half micron filter media with silver etc will probably go with it for a while. Still going to see if someone will annalyze what is in it. Filters may not get it.
Wife buys some bottled water, in the small bottle for the fridge. It waste space storing them in cabinets or bays. We carry some, when we are away from the coach. It saves a lot of money over Desanti etc from a quick stop kinda place. It's learned behavior.
Need to find a good non plastic container or something we already have to take with us. Canteens look like you're on an expedition and don't stay cold.
The bottled water taste like plastic right from the store almost all the time and certainly after a day or tow of heat in storage in cabinets etc. Makes no sense to buy water costing twice or three times the price of beer.
