What to do with thatGet your hardness figure

Before anyone visits, pull the hardness figure out of the annual report Stantonsburg, Town of publishes. It settles most of the question on its own. Reports use milligrams per liter, installers use grains per gallon, and mixing the two up is how people end up oversized.

Work out your grains per day before anyone quotes you. Oversizing is the common and expensive mistake. If your fixtures also stain orange, iron has to be settled first — oxidized iron clogs softener resin.
