Water
Ok here I am with another question. My water is not treated with chlorine or anything. So I have never had to use a dechlorinater, just a conditioner. What do I use to dechlorinate?

Re: Water
What is your water source? Tap water? Or bottled water?

Re: Water
My source is well water. I know for a fact it is not treated with chlorine. But after the city finishes putting in city water I will have tap water.curlysister wrote:What is your water source? Tap water? Or bottled water?

Re: Water
Sometimes well water contains heavy metals that are safe to humans and other pets but unsafe to hermits. Unless you know exactly what is or isn't in your water I would use one of the appropriate water purifier on the list in the link below to be safe.

Re: Water
I would treat both your well water and your tap water with Prime.
