Here in the Pacific Northwest, stream restoration is a growth industry (purely anecdotal – I have not done a study). The big issue is restoration as it relates to the salmon fishery: trying to undo the mess we’ve made of the environment. I’ve been told that the Columbia River produced something like 20 million adult [...]

Unless you have low pH, a water softener (using salt) will not shorten the life span of the water heater, copper and brass plumbing potable water system and some appliances. Absolutely not!
