There’s a lot of water that comes out of the whole house water filtration system when it cleans itself. Mine is made by Kinetico and it’s comes with 2 filter tanks and 1 softener tank. Can I water plants with that water? It is safe for lawn and other plant life? I hate to see all that water go to waste.

Thanks

Ericka asked:

I am looking to buy a whole house water filtration system in the next month. I have looked up so many reviews on different products, but the reviews are from the companies that sell these products. How would I find the best one? Does anyone know of a good one?

Even if your local municipal water supply is considered "drinkable", it's a good idea to use water filters as it will further purify the drinking water not to mention making it taste better.
