Watering with soft water
yeah... the Milwaukee area has some hellatious calcium/magnesium in the water... of
course that is why NE there are all those limestone quarries!!!! the amount of softening that must be done to our water results in not very tasty water, I agree. I used to like the taste of hard water until the iron bacteria got into the well. If you had long hair you would fall in love with it. We had a softener all my life but when I left home and lived elsewhere with hard water I couldnt believe how "gummy" my hair felt all the time. When I came back home my hair went back to feeling clean and soft. Now lake water comes out of the tap and it is pretty soft. What bothers me most about the Milwaukee area well water is the radon levels. and nobody is talking about the fact that heating the water does not blow off the radon and long hot showers breathing that in cant be very good for anyone.

Of course, Germantown has some terrible ground water with a high iron/sulfer content, so the softener might not be completely to blame... |
