In the description, Home Master says great for city water. Does anyone have this installed with a well pump?

They make a 3 canister for well water. It's to combat higher levels of iron I think. I've had this system on city water for a year and absolutely love it. If you don' have iron issues this may work. I would contact the company for selection of a unit.

We don't. But we love ours. We have terrible water that burned out our water heater in one year. Full of calcium. Now it's clear and even our washing machine shines.

I have a well system, and the Home Master system works great, the water is way better than the previous single filter system I had. It would be a good idea to have your well tested for iron levels to make sure your softner system is working properly.

This system may, or may not work for your well water. If you have well water, the very first place to start, before buying any treatment equipment is with a water test. If you have already had your water tested, then please share those results with us so we can make a recommendation. We also have tests available. Please contact us for support 1-877-693-7873 M-F 9am to 5pm Mountain Standard Time.

Yes, I have it on my well system, hooked it up last week, and everything appears normal, no drop in pressure or volume. We have extremely hard water (24 gpg), and we have a water softener on the hot water side of our supply The shower walls appear better already, water appears to bead more, and drinking water has no smell or off tastes. If you're not handy with plumbing, I would recommend that you hire someone to do the install.

We are on a well ... no chlorine. Water Boss seems to recommend the Model 950 For City Water.

All it has is an inlet that allow the water in to keep the system at a set pressure so the well will not kick on and off every few sec. It has an 1 1/2" pipe size for your hookup! No house connection. I hope this helps you

Sorry with out a water analysis I am unable to recommend any thing for your use the pro filter will remove some iron and treat water hardness to a degree should your water fit in the parameters of the filter no extra filters are needed I or no one can honestly recommend what you need with out first knowing the quality of water you have Have a good day Clarence White white pump service, Devine, Texas Willing to answer any question you may have once I know what I am dealing with or give the dealer you are purchasing the unit from with information I am asking for they should be able to answer all your questions

Yes it works great. I only tested it so far because it is my backup pump, but it really sucks the water well. I dumped a 5 gallon bucket of wster to test and it sucked it out in about 10 seconds

This tank or any poly storage tank will not hold city water pressure. Strictly storage only. There are tanks made for pressure but are built much different. If still interested call Randy @ surewater 800-797-2207

I'm not sure how you want to use this system, but if you are using it directly after your well pump, remember it is only a 75 GPD. With that said, if you don't have a pressure tank in your well system, you may want to consider getting one to put somewhere upstream of the RO unit. I agree with the other gentleman who suggested treating the water prior to running it through your system, be it water softener or whole house filtration, something to extend the life of your membrane. Also, may want to get a tester or have your water tested to determine the effectiveness of the system wherever you decide to use it. Without understanding more of your situation, hope this info helps! Good luck!

Its hard to say everything gets drained. How much waste water depends in hardness of the city's water in youre area and also if you have a whole home filter system installed in youre home.

Not that I know of. I think it's pure physics since all of these style faucets with the pull out nozzles have smaller diameter hoses in them. You could do a simple test and check the actual water flow in GPM and compare that to the mfg rated flow. I'm happy with the flow rate and we are on a deep well with pressure much lower than city water.

We have a well with electric pump too. yes. my brother installed his and it worked wonderful. we have not got our up and running yet. waiting for the weather to break. my brother did use his. He installed it and then packed it back up and put in his attic for emergency only. he's ready to rock and roll if power goes down. hope this helped.

I have this problem. I think the problem for me anyway is I live on a well and have no chemicals added to the water. Im currently thinking of getting a small uv light to add to the back to possibly kill off any slime that wants to try and form. Try city water andsee if you still get the slime in the same ammount of time

Try to track down how did the original well install and ask them. That's the best route.O call a local well contractor or folks who service them in your area, some of the plumbing companies, they should be able to help possibly..No use getting into the math of pump lift, total dynamic head, suction lift, DP/friction loss, etc., easier to ask one of the above mentionedcontractors.Regards, Bill M.

Marsha: I removed the water filter and don't use it - the unit works a lot better without it! But then my well water is filtered with an in-house filter in the basement. If your water is in good shape, just remove the filter and forget it!

No. I would recommend the well system unit. This would work on a well but the life would be severely lessened due to high iron levels.

As long as the line coming from your home water supply has a valve you can shut off and then install the included tubing and water filter, it should work just fine.

Yes. I use 'the Works' spray cleaner which is the best cleaner for my well water issue. I also use Bar Keepers Friend. It is a nice sink if you do not have well water.
