Whole home systems
A whole-home system treats water where it enters the house, so every tap, shower, and appliance draws from the same treated supply. It's the equipment category that addresses hardness — spots on glassware, film on shower doors, and scale in fixtures.
48,000-grain supplier-rated softening capacity with carbon filtration
48,000-grain supplier-rated capacity. Ceramic-disc control valve with 72-hour memory backup. Granular activated coconut-shell carbon. 10% crosslinked softening resin. Polishing gravel support bed. Combined softening and filtration tank with separate brine tank. Often suits most 3–4 bedroom city-water homes, subject to water demand and hardness.
64,000-grain supplier-rated softening capacity with carbon filtration
64,000-grain supplier-rated capacity. Ceramic-disc control valve with 72-hour memory backup. Granular activated coconut-shell carbon. 10% crosslinked softening resin. Demand-metered regeneration. Combined softening and filtration tank with separate brine tank. Often suits larger homes, bigger families, or harder city water.
Depends on test results (e.g. hardness, iron, manganese, sulfur odor)
Recommended testing first. Configuration based on results. Upkeep walkthrough. Often suits private wells, after testing.
Separate softening and carbon filtration tanks
Dedicated softening tank. Dedicated carbon tank. Configured for your flow needs. Often suits higher-demand homes.
Treated water throughout the home, plus dedicated drinking water
Combined softener + filtration. Under-sink RO at the kitchen sink. One consultation, one written quote. Often suits homeowners who want both in one plan.
Water passes through a softening tank, which exchanges hardness minerals, and carbon filtration, which can address certain taste and odor concerns. Some homes use one combined tank; higher-demand homes may use separate dual tanks. Well supplies are tested first so the system matches the water.
Less hardness means less scale building up in water heaters, dishwashers, and faucets over time.
Soap lathers more easily and the filmy feel many people associate with hard water is reduced.
Carbon filtration can address a chlorine-like taste or smell from treated city water.
