Ugh! I can't believe this.

I very recently moved into a new home. The buyers of my previous home requested that the PurHome X-1000 whole house water filter remain in the home. I thought, well, that's OK, I can get a new whole house water filter at my new house in the next few weeks.

Then we moved into our home and tried the water. Honestly, it's horrible. Yes, people accuse me of being a water snob, but this stuff is BAD! It smells like chlorine (I would even go so far as to say bleachy), it tastes likes a nasty combination of chlorine and salt. I cannot bear to choke it down. So me, the biggest proponent of whole house water filters is forced to drink bottled water until I can get my new filter installed, which I hope will be days and not weeks.

At first, I thought I could wait a few weeks before installing it, but now I know I cannot wait another week! Thank goodness my dad is quite skilled at these installations, since he's installed both PurHome X-1000's and X-5's all over town here for friends and family. So my next call will be to him begging him to install another filter for me. Sorry, dad, but I really do appreciate it!
