does it take out all sediments and smelly water

Since we use the local water supply we do not have sediment in our water, so I can't answer that part of the question. Our water is chlorinated and the filter takes out all odor of that or any other chemicals. We are very pleased with this product.

It does, But I would Recommend two of these One just for sediment and One for taste and odor,that way the filter lasts longer. Im going to do that Now on mine because the city has so much sediment in the water it clogged up my new filter in four months. I have to buy another unit with the Basic filter on it.

Ihaven't had to remove pebbles or stones. It does well on bugs, but not algae and i have the "fine" filter bag that is supposed to remove algae.

This unit will remove the following: Combined Chlorine (Sodium Hypochlorite) Hydrogen Sulfide (rotten egg smell) Iron oxide (rust water) Dirt, sediment Odors Plus, its pH balanced

The idea is that it filters out all the bad stuff in water like bacteria particles or dirt or whatever

No, this is not a water softener. It will not filter out the majority of the heavy minerals in the water.

Yes, it cleans in a random motion, no pattern, not the stairs, well worth the money, it filters the water better than our sand filter. Easy to clean the filters but I recommend using a air compressor with a air lance to blow out the filters

Hmmm . . . it will clean up standing water. But it's a vacuum. If you have a stain as a result of water that was left standing, I don't think any vacuum will be able to remove that.

Yes, it will do that until all of the water is out of the reservoir. If it continues then it probably needs to be cleaned.. Hope this helps..

Remove would not be the correct description. It will reduce dissolved minerals in the 70 to 95% range. So if you start with very high dissolved solids for example and iron sulfide is one of the dissolved salts there will still be some left. That said, when you smell iron you are really smelling H2S being liberated by iron reducing bacteria in the water supply system. The carbon filter in this device will remove that to below detection level.

I'm not sure, if it's hard water you will need a "hard water remover" if it's not hard water i'm pretty sure it will remover almost anything. This machine is amazing!

Yes, it removes both the taste and odor of chlorine. It produces a crisp clean taste even when the water supplier uses large amounts of chlorine to purify the water. I have been very pleased with the results.

Yes it will remove the chlorine and other contaminants from water so your water will have no taste the way it should be.

We empty it every time we use it. I would think that if you left the water in it that you may get a build up of sediments in the tank from the water.

No, just sediment. Just like you couldn't run salt water thru it and get fresh water. The minerals are dissolved into the water and require a conditioner with lots of media and surface area. This is what I have to remove dissolved iron, manganese, and calcium. Expect to spend $1K-$2K + install. The media will last 4-6 years and they auto back flush themselves.

I don't believe it will! I believe it is a taste and sediment filter only! As far as I know the filtration of microbes or bacteria is beyond this filters capability!

If you are anal about it being spotless, then yes. But it's not really necessary. I just give it a quick rinse to get the big chunks out, and that is good enough. Because of how the distillation process works, the water will still come out just as good even if there is a bunch of crap in the bottom.

It removes pollutants from regular water. Also it removes chlorine and some fluoride as well (by carbon fiber filter). Please be well informed.
