Hi,
I went to Home Depot & Lowe's seeking a new water softener system. Both stores ultimately sent local partner to my house to offer me quotes. Here Puronics is with Home Depot and AO Smith is with Lowes. I don't know what's the recommendation of you folks think of each brand, in terms of the products itself and further maintenance easiness. Puronics currently offers Defender iGen and AO Smith offers Expert Series RC here in Orange County, California.
This is my what I found. I may be wrong. Please correct me if I am wrong. Puronics has water softener business much longer than AO Smith. Puronics also have more legit certificates. However, AO Smith has carbon and chemical removal functions which look fancy to me.
The the last thing, not sure which side is better. AO Smith claims they don't need to change anything in the future except adding salts while Puronics needs to change the MicroSilver Bacteriostasis filter every three years.
Thanks in advance for everyone's help
