I finished installing the new water system in the kitchen this evening. It consists of two stainless and bronze filter housings, lots of iron, brass, copper, and plastic parts. Of possible note is that the filter assemblies were salvaged from a photo lab water temp control panel - and is old. I soaked the assemblies overnight in a bucket of citric acid to clean off the old scale deposits - they came out sparkling clean looking. The filters are carbon block, 5 micron nominal, and new.
The water now tastes oily and metallic - even after running it for 15 minutes. Is this likely coming from the old filter top casting (bronze) or the iron pipe reducers and nipples? -- OK Don, KD5NRO Norman, OK "There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely games." - Ernest Hemingway '90 300D (Rattled), '92 300D (Saber), ''97 Ply Grand Voyager (Vincent van-go) _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
