Choosing the Best System

Picking out a home water softener and filter system can feel like a daunting task, but it's important to get a handle on the basic differences between softeners and filters. Let's break it down.

Water Softeners vs. Filtration Systems

Getting the lowdown on what makes water softeners different from filtration systems will help you figure out what's the best fit for your family.

Water Softeners:
These guys kick out calcium and magnesium - the usual suspects behind hard water (Culligan). Hard water sneaks into your pipes, appliances, and even your skin and hair, leaving them feeling crusty. By softening it, your dishes sparkle, skin feels like a baby's bottom, and your hair gets its bounce back.

What Water Softeners Do For You
Stop your pipes from turning into rock gardens
Make your dishes shine like the top of the Chrysler building
Feel the difference in your softer skin and hair
Save you cash cause your appliances run smoother

Filtration Systems:
Filtered water isn't just for fancy restaurants. These systems toss out stuff like sediment, chlorine, and other less tasty bits (Culligan). Whether it's a simple water filter at the sink or a full-house ninja setup, say goodbye to bad-tasting water.

Why Filtration's a Friend
Water that tastes like it's bottled
No more chlorine and pesky pesticides
Get clean water straight out of every tap
Tackle those sneaky chemicals for peace of mind

Whole house water filtration softener systems are like the all-stars that do it all—softening the water while keeping it clean from gunk.

Factors to Consider for Selection

Shopping for the right water treatment system isn't just about picking the shiniest one. It’s got to be your household's sidekick.

1. Water Source:
Are you on city water or doing the well thing? City folks might just need a good filter, while well water warriors could be battling iron and sulfur, too.

Your Water Type	What You Might Need
City Slickers	Filtration Systems
Well Dwellers	Softening with some Filtering Power

2. Water Hardness:
Got water that's as hard as your old school gym teacher? The tougher it is, the more muscle you'll need in a softener.

Toughness of Water (GPG)	Your Ideal Buddy
1-7 (Slightly Stubborn)	A Softener That Gets the Job Done
7-14 (Gritty and Determined)	High-Power Softener
14+ (Hard as Nails)	Iron-Busting Water Softener

3. Contaminants:
Take a peek at what’s lurking in your water. Hard water has minerals aplenty, while city supplies might be chemical-laden pools.

4. Usage and Capacity:
How much water you guys go through determines how big a system you need to hire.

Family Size	What Your System Needs to Handle
1-2 people	24,000 grains doing the heavy lifting
3-4 people	Up it to 32,000 grains
5+ people	Think big, 45,000 grains or more

5. Budget:
Balance what you need with what you can spend today and on the regular upkeep. Going for value over flash is where it's at.

Our SoftPro Elite Water Softener makes a sweet partner: solid results, smooth operation. It won't let you down with harder water or over the long ride.
