The Pond Sand Filter is a device that takes pond water and makes it safe to drink by filtering out bacteria that is harmful to human beings. It’s a proven technology but it has its limitations.

Pros
- No fossil fuels, solar power, or electricity required
- Nearly effortless to pump
- Purifies enough water everyday to provide hundreds of families clean & safe drinking water
- The water purified is safe enough to be used for cooking (low or no iron in the water)

Cons
- Limited lifespan (minimum two years), needs to be replaced eventually like any filter
- Increased complexity vs. the deep tube well (Murphy’s Law – more can go wrong)
- More vulnerable to vandalism than a deep-tube well (can unscrew and steal the faucets, etc)

The person in the video is a local villager. She’s not an expert in pond sand filters – but I wanted to see what the local perception of Pond Sand Filters are.

I have a GE filter I installed on my house cold water line. It was fine until I installed a filter that didn’t really fit & I think it let sediment get up into the pressure valve. Now I have put in the correct filter but water leaks out of the pressure valve unless I have it on bypass. I don’t know what to do – maybe replace the whole unit with a new one? GE 800 number is useless.

hi there, in my opinion the water treatment business for nearly 65 years the company mission is to deliver high-quality water treatment products that will benefit every part of consumers’ lives and hopes to raise the quality of life by purifying its most essential element: water. The company has seen about every water problem imaginable and solved these problems to deliver the refreshing, clean and pure water that’s become its hallmark. Free of contaminants and minerals, water treated with their softeners or filtration systems makes an impression at home and at the workplace. If you want more information about the water treatment consultant visit the website I search it on a net this website belongs to all types’ water treatment if you were interested visit the website which is given below.

I’ve done some research on my own about the presence of iron in water, and the "rotten egg smell" that can sometimes be associated with it, but my water doesn’t seem to have an odor. Can someone suggest a product that might work for me?

The Niagara+™ Birm Iron Filter efficiently removes iron where hydrogen sulfide (rotten egg odor) is NOT present, organic matters do not exceed 4 ppm and pH level is greater than 6.8 The Birm Iron filter will also remove Manganese in applications where the Ph level is between 8 and 9.

i’m on a well,so i buy bottled water,but i want to install a whole house water filter and water softener for health reasons.i’m worried about washing clothes and taking showers with the well water my affect my family in an unhealthy way.thanx

Well water is more difficult to purify than city water. I would not just go and listen to a water softener salesperson at say Sears to make a decision. I would call out a water expert and analyze the water for hard to remove substances commonly found in well water like iron, sulfur, nitrates and nitrites from fertilizers. Get their recommendations so if you do this you do it right. Once you remove the really bad stuff you may want to install a reverse osmosis system they work great. And the best place to buy one is on Ebay, they have the best systems and the best prices.
