So, Should I use softened water?
Thanks a bunch.
I'm on a well with lots of nasty things (Iron, sulfur, super high Alk and who knows what else...
), and I filled my pool with the water from my treatment system and I've been totally happy! I have several filters and a salt softner, so if it's possible, I would sure consider it!
