Need Water Softener Recommendation

**Andy4569** · 08-15-2011, 04:09 AM

I've had my water tested. I have 24 grains of hardness. My house has 2 half baths but only 2 people living here. What is a good system without breaking the bank?

A Fleck 5600 is a very good unit that does not cost an arm and a leg. There are a number of sites that sell these units or you may find a local dealer.

I cannot recommend HydroFLOW more highly. It uses radio waves in an electric field to prevent the formation of Limescale AND dissolve lime scale already in the pipes. The HS38 is the model you need.

Electric/magnetic field water softeners are considered to be a scam by most people in the water softening industry. My suggestion is to get an ion exchange based water softener, which uses proven technology that works. Culligan, Kenmore, GE, and Fleck all make excellent water softeners. Assuming average water usage, sounds like you need a 32K GPG system.
