Yeah the grain level should be dead on perfect. I have no scale or deposits on any faucets etc so I think I should be all set.

As far as the inline water filter I got, it will take a generic 10" filter.
It comes with a Culligan D-20 filter and you can upgrade to a D-30 or D-40 depending on if you have any pesticides/asbestos/fertilizer etc in your water. The D-30 and D-40 both are 0.5 micron filters. Reports are that the D-40 restricts flow quite a bit.

I will be sure to report back. :)
