Hard, soft or what?

[Personally, I think reverse osmosis systems are overkill, and they are very expensive to buy and to operate. The house we recently bought has such a system, but we have bypassed it for that reason. We do have a water softener, but since the area converted from wells to 'surface water systems', even that does not seem necessary. It tastes just fine and we have no buildup on anything, including glass shower doors, which we wipe down after use.

Reverse Osmosis systems remove 99% of contaminates (nothing is 100%) that are in the water. This includes, fertilizer runoff that gets into the aquafer, hormones, insecticides, pesticides, and other miscellaneous junk that is in the water that might not be healthy for you. When it comes to anything going into my body, there is no such thing as overkill.

I am still awaiting the consequences of drinking water in most of the USA, and some 30+ other countries, for the last 81+ years. My plumbing still works, although my heart is battery operated now. If I have lost my mind, I am completely oblivious to that possibility, and hope to remain that way. For the last 40 years, my daughter has been preaching the benefits of a vegan lifestyle. I ignore her, and note that she isn't all that healthy as she approaches her 60th birthday this year.
Oh well......All but one of my three younger brothers are dead.

You are ageless, RV, biopic, and will live forever!

Well, I am trying, but it is getting harder. Well, that last bit isn't true.
