We need a water softener. I recently had the Rainsoft guy out here for the dog-and-pony show (water test and very weak sales pitch). He never called back. I'm guessing he gets paid by the lead or per each test. Whatever.
I have the money to lay out for one of these big brand whole house systems from Rainsoft, Culligan, or Kinetico. My question is this: Why should I spend ~$5K for these systems when there are tons of other seemingly comparable options out there for $1500 - $2500? What does $5K get me that $2000 doesn't? Pros/Cons?
I can't seem to get any help/education searching online...just worthless copy on affiliate pages. I like reading some of the things on Alamo Water Softeners' site, but I'm just not sure what to believe.
I'm hoping to get some help here on this forum on how to go about buying a whole house system (including RO at kitchen sink, and maybe fridge too).
My stats:
5 people in family
Hardness - 11.5 GPG
Chlorine - 1.5 PPM
Can I get some help? Let me know if you need other questions answered. Thanks in advance...
