Anyway, all water filters get very funky after a year.
- finid 10y agoTrue, "all water filters get very funky after a year", that funkiness is an indication of the true quality of the water that reaches your house or apartment. That's how you tell what you'd have been drinking without filtration.
- maxerickson 10y agoIt might just be some calcium. The horror! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_water https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_water
- finid 10y agoNope, what I saw in that filter wasn't calcium.
- notadoc 10y agoYou seem really bothered by this. What did you see in your filter after a year? Some tiny amount of algae? Some mineral deposits? Do you prefer your water taste like a chlorinated pool? Wait until you find out what's in your food!
