There are so many designs and scales. We had rusty well water in a home that had an established system. The system worked fine for a while, but there was so much sediment in the water that the filters filled up at an astonishing pace. Not only was it costly to keep replacing them, it was really inconvenient. Also, you might have the water formally tested for contaminants, just to ensure that it's safe (especially that chemicals or metals aren't leaching into it from the ground or the house's pipes). Hope this helps. Good luck and keep us posted!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7072357011380227005.post-11780702314026800922009-01-09T09:02:00.000-05:002009-01-09T09:02:00.000-05:00Good idea to change the locks anyways.

We always do that regardless of whether they are sticky or not... never know if someone will come to visit and old owner with a key and come walking randomly into your home! Can't say it has happened to us, but I'm a safey dork like that. :) <BR/><BR/>Glad you're all together and on your way to getting settled. You guys like camping anyways, right! :) hehe I'm sure it's been a long time to wait already for all your stuff, but knowing you, I am sure you've improvised pretty good thus far! :) Good luck and hopefully all your things get delivered sooner than later.The Cutes and Scoots Showhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03921940556287071878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7072357011380227005.post-20825879789223349822009-01-09T08:46:00.000-05:002009-01-09T08:46:00.000-05:00Good Luck!

A work in progress that will be so much fun. :)<BR/>Carpeting-we went w/ Lowe's because of their special right now-whole house installation for $199. They include removal of old carpet, too (which Home Depot does not). Not sure if you have either store near you, but thought I'd mention it!Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13828182765416909622noreply@blogger.com
