Yup, know all about being sensitive to fragrances, have the same issue... those stinky candles don't come in the door without out going right out the back door wink.png

I really don't notice a fragrance that bothers me with the Burt's but what I do notice is it keeps her skin soft for a couple days without applying more, daily showers and all... and let me tell you Arizona gives new meaning to DRY.

I will keep the others in mind.

Might hafta give ole Burt's a try. Any particular one? I know they sell lots of small items for lips and such, didn't know they had a lotion.

And I hear ya on the dry. You guys probably have less humidity than we did in AK.

And I just caught the liquid rock reference, that was funny! rofl.gif

Since you guys are sensative to fragrances, does that mean you don't like dried fish cooked in the house? rofl.gif

Well in regards to those dried fish, for me that means cooking on the Ducane outside

But the actual fragrances that brother me sinus-wise are not the dried fish.... they just smell! :lol:

Water softener. You can buy at local hardware store, but better to buy from online retailer. Like...

Now we have moved onto water softeners... I have bought from the first one, good outfit.

For sure don't buy them from local. Two best setups use the Fleck or Clack valves, others are #######.

Yup. I went with Fleck because they will sell more readily to consumers, lots of parts and support out there for them. And you're right on not buying local... I bought two systems online for less than what the local companies wanted to charge for one. And the quality of the product is about 100% above what the local box stores sell as all-in-one (which can't be serviced, nor have the resin replaced in 10 years like a two-part system can).

Which one did you get? I went with the 7000.

Oh, and I went back and looked, I actually bought from the second link. Had issues with a salesman from the first company not wanting to answer my questions, nor could he give me a firm shipping price. Second company was more solid-sounding, so I went with them.

It hasn't snowed where we live yet but I had to deal with the skin issues to with the cold and my face would have rashes. Just put lotion everyday and moisturizer and I stopped having issues with the cold weather.

Well need to get the rat traps out... something ate the links!!

5600 SXT is the model I put in.

I bought one about 10 years back and just now replaced it, that is fair service in my book
