How much energy does the Healthy Home Solutions water filter use?
It takes very little energy to run the Healthy Home Solution water filtration system by Pure Elements. The system uses less than one amp or about 12 watts. That’s about a quarter of the energy it takes to run a 40 watt light bulb.

you must have something very wrong with your water.you should’nt have a bad oder to it.i have well water also and it does’t smell at all.something is going on there, are you sure your sewer is’nt draing into the well? i would certainly have it checked by a proffesional. you could get "very" sick from it.good luck! susyq47
we have private well and installed a water softener, inline filter and bacteria light. we first noticed the bad smell after a 2 week vacation & when we returned, the water oder was horrible & now it only smells in 3 areas. why is that? what do we do?
You may have sulfer in the water. You may need to add a filter that will remove the odor.
I am getting some Amazonian fish like discus and angels and wanted to ask if they need soft water and low pH. I have some peat running through the filter and am getting Indian Almond Leaves. If they do need soft water I was going to get the API Water Softener Pillow and the Seachem Acid/Alkaline Buffer. Thanks
I have hard water where i live and i have Mbuna so im really lucky!
Those fish however need softer water and clean water. If you can maintain all that and keep it on a tight schedule go for it. But sometimes people forget or get lazy and dont maintain that then the water will start changing, that is what usually kills fish, the drastic change.
Ive asked some discus owners if they do treatments and some say that they dont. They even said that the reputation is sometimes overblown. Keep the water clean, if you are going to do treatments make sure you keep to it, and get drift wood. Drift wood is part of their natural environment and looks really nice plus it will make your water soft too.
I have cleaned the innards several times but found no blockage but it works afterwards. Could I manuallly cycle it and then unplug it ? Would the water still flo thru the filter material?
A good one around else lasts a long time. 20 years.
A Sears Kenmore softner seems to last 10 around here.
Hello we are planning to buy a water softner and filter. We got signed up @ home depot for a FREE water analysis test and it turned out to be a sale pitch from RainSoft with the softner n filter price tag og 7850$
Our budget was 1200…and needless to say we were stunned to see such a price….so any ideas as to what to buy, look n spend?
Thanks!
I got the GE softwater from Home Depot, and with whole house water filter and installation it was less than $1500. I had it done in 2004. I hope this helps.
I put a Brita Filter in storage in the same box as some fabric softener (for a period of around 3 months). Now, the filter (the plastic part, as the actual filter cylinder is new) smells like fabric softener. Does drinking the water from this filter pose a health hazard?
I personally wouldn’t use it. Even if it is just an aroma that may prove harmless, the taste alone would be impossible to get out completely.
You have learnt a valuable lesson. Buy a new one and move on.
