That ' s awesome . Do you have a pic ? <| sep |> I miss the UK . Talking to a mate about his trip to the countryside in the cold , walking into a firewarmed pub and rewarding yourself with a real ale and a pie . Genius . I could go for some of that right now . <| sep |> You get them to ring you obviously . If i have a problem or something I don ' t like I get them to ring me . <| sep |> The soundtracks villain really got to me guys <| sep |> This is much too vague to give any answer too . The ways in which your water is treated depends on the quality of the water that your local drinking water plant starts off with . It ' s going to vary from place to place . There isn ' t any way to know unless you call your local water authority . As for the complaints you have , you need to be much , much more specific . What is this funk you ' re describing ? It is some sort of deposit you ' re seeing on your faucets or in the toilet ? What color ? Does the water have a smell ? When you say your water looks dirty , what color is it ? Black , brown , gray , etc ? Is it cloudy ? You would need to be much more specific as their could be a thousand things wrong with your water and many different possible solutions . With all of that said , since you are on city water , you shouldn ' t need any treatment at all and I personally wouldn ' t put much , if any money into it . I would start by calling your local water authority and telling them what problems you are experiencing . There could be something wrong with the distribution system that they aren ' t even aware of . By law , the water that leaves their treatment plant has to meet like 200 different set of parameters so when it gets to you there shouldn ' t be anything wrong with it . It may also be the case that their isn ' t anything wrong on their end and it ' s the pipes in your home that are the issue . Copper pipes can cause bluegreen deposits , leaky pipes can let bacteria into your water which can cause all kinds of issues , etc , etc . What did the Culligan guy say was the issue and what kind of treatment did he quote you for ?
