I am looking for some feedback on treating my well water for my new house. I am just about to buy a softener and have been trying to research as much as I can about these things.
I know I will be OK with a conventional salt softener, I've read many good threads on this forum. My water has 0.066 iron, 0.016 manganese, and a hardness of 120 mg/L. I came up with a harness of 7.3, which I round up to 8, correct? Also I have a TDS of 1500, which I think is getting up there.
So it seems my water isn't particularly hard from what I've read. It's nice and clear and has no odor right out of the well. I also saw a few things online about the salt-free conditioners, which work differently than salt softeners.
Does anyone have any feedback on these units? Or should I stick with a quality salt softener?
Thanks for any and all advice!!
