I found it a little more difficult to install due to it's weight and the way you can't see to align the bolts as easily. Otherwise, I have been very happy with the way it works and the fact that it uses less water than our old one.

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.

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!

Hi - everything I can read online says it is safe for septic tanks. You might want to contact the manufacturer to confirm however.

It will work, but very slow. Other products on the market are made specifically for out houses. Check their web site for full info. Works good for me in my 40 year old Septic tank.

I am not 100% sure if it will work for your hole house. The system will greatly help with any contaminants in the water. I am on city water and use this system for mobile detailing. I have a good water holding tank as well as a bad water holding tank. The bad water tank smells but the good water tank smells only like the plastic that holds the water. Hope this helps and good luck

I have no experience with septic tanks so I can't answer your question. However, I would suggest that you contact Summit Brands at 888-476-6688 or visit their website at www.summitbrands.com I hope this helps and that you get the information you need.

I don't currently have that problem here but at my previous residence I used vinegar to clean the top and the tool to scale the tank input if you have very hard water you may want to use a filter.

Use a single filter for the entire system (for water heater and filtered water dispenser). Filters should be changed periodically so set up some kind of reminder!

I have not had that symptom but I would immediately make sure that the tank is empty and also clean the filter. If a hose is used to drain the water to a drain I would make sure it does not have a kink in it. Usually a red light comes on for the tank and filter.

We have a well for our water supply so it may be different for a municipal water supply. It was WAY MORE maintenance than we expected. Within 2 years a major part had to be replaced. The maintenance is fairly complicated in my opinion. You have to clean the whole system and run vinegar through it twice a year. We usually call the plumber who sold it to us. I think he saw a long term service contract in sight! The savings on our gas bill is eaten up by the service call. I doubt we would have gotten one if we had known the maintenance was so involved.

inspect wiring for damage,make sure it didnt pull wire off of humidistat,and if water line isnt kinked or broken it should be okay

I don't have a septic tank as I live in a high-rise. Haven't had any problems flushing wipes down toilet.

I don't have a septic tank. A friend of mine had a septic tank and used this and there were never any problems with it.

I have a septic tank and used it. Although I've only used it a couple times (once per toilet), I plan to only use it sparingly if ever again. I think plain old baking soda and vinegar would work just as well and be much healthier for your septic system though.

That is what we are using it for. We have coliform bacteria in our well and since we've been using this the bacteria is gone.
