Water Filtration System for Arsenic and Uranium

ACutAbove · 01-16-2011, 03:02 PM

I use Gilford Well for maintenance and installations of my customers propertys. They are not the cheapest but when dealing with water that you might be putting in your body, is this something you really want to do on the cheap?

Absolutely not! We're having an extensive filtration system put in - was just looking for recommendations and to prepare myself for what I knew would be a big number.

We went with Thursty. They'll be doing the work in mid-February. And I can't wait 'til it's done! It may just be peace of mind - but I can't wait to get every dish, glass and spoon washed!

I think arsenic is very common in our area.

Sorry, I had been out of town and didn't see your question. I used A&B Water Systems over in Laconia http://www.fixyourwater.com 800-613-0121. Tom Calderone.

They were substantially cheaper than others mentioned. Gilford Wells never returned my calls. Thursty were pleasant but never came up with a solution. Cost was about $3K.

I am glad to see I am not the only one who was ignored by Gilford Well & Pump. They installed a system at my camp and when I wanted them to modify it (stop outside spicket water from being run through the filter system) I was ignored.
