Nature's Own Water Softener Crystals - 38240 Natures Own Kcl Crystals Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I clcked one star because it won't accept zero. We bought this salt brand from Ace Hardware. After the first use our brine tank had a disgusting layer of gunk on top of the water. I called Hague (who soldus our softener) to ask if I used the wrong kind of salt, and they said it shouldn't matter. But they were wrong. We cleaned out the tank and started over (this is the only brand of potassium salt that Ace carries right now) and it happened again. I found a Water Softener Q/A site that says crystal salt is the lowest quality and contains the most impurities. We will not use this salt ever again. Previously we used pellet-style potassium salts and had no problems.

The Dishwasher Filtration System Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I found this product to work as advertised. Our dishes were coming out cloudy at best, at times worse than they went in. San Diego water. So we gave the Dishwasher Filtration System from Difi a try. Installation was a bit more cumbersome than I would have liked, but I'm not much of a handyman. It leaked out the top a bit, and maybe out the inlets/outlets, but after some tightning down of things, no leaks.
Results of my first wash after installation were pretty dramatically good! Problem solved. Quite happy with it for a few months, forgot about it, then dishes started coming out cloudy again. Figured it was time for a filter replacement. That didn't go as smooth as I'd like either. In fact, I couldn't unscrew the top the first time I got under there and tried. So I planned to pull it out and stick it in a vise on the weekend, but when I came back and gave it another try, it unscrewed nicely. Anyways, replaced the filter, ran one wash with a dishwasher cleaner (Glisten), and then tried a new batch of dishes - dramatic improvement; excellent results again - sparkling clean glasses. Don't know what else to say. I highly recommend this product.

Washing Machine Inline Water Filter Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Purchased this item and right out of the bag its threads were stripped and would not fit onto the fittings. Made very cheap and not even worth the money they want. Some might be OK but I have talked with others that got the same and all of theirs were bad also. DO NOT BUY

Magnetic Water Softener - Water Treatment Conditioner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this item thinking it would save me from the salt lugging and the mess of the water softener. I waited until the salt had run out and the water was at its normal condition then installed the device. I immediately noticed a scale on the dishes and that they weren't clean-had lots of water spots. I called the mfg and talked to "Max" explaining my situation (out of warranty with Amazon) He said that I apparently didn't have much iron or calcium in my water and the device wouldn't work and gave me the address for return. I spent $8.00 sending it back to Plano,Tx. Steve from Applied Magnetics called me and said GOOD LUCK they would not stand by their product and that I was out of luck. If you like magnets it's great, but if you want it to soften your water- forget it!

Large Magnetic Water Conditioner - Magnet Water Treatment - No Salt Water Softener Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We used a system like these in Albuquerque to help with scale buildup on faucets and it worked. We had two big magnets buried applied to our water coming into the house, and two smaller magnets on the interior feed to the hot water heater to protect it too, for a total of two big and two smaller magnets.

WATER SOFTENER (Flint Walling/Star S07EC24) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)You get what you pay for. Lots of plastic; I doubt this unit will last too long. It does seem to work okay now.

nuvoH2O Home Complete Salt-Free Water Softening System Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We bought this product with the intention that with the money back offer we would be in the same place if it didn't work. WOW!!
Were we wrong about it not working. We read all the different reviews and agree that the review timelines seemed a "little suspect". We couldn't be happier that we were proven wrong. The unit came in 4 days from time order was placed, was easy to install ( minor plumbing skills required). When we first put the water on we could feel a difference in the water, we called a neighbor over that has been in our neighborhood for 15 years and has dealt ad nauseam with the hard water in our area. She was amazed at water coming out of the tap, she asked if she could wash her hair in the sink!!!! She did and said that her hair hasn't felt that good since she was on vacation . As far as the claims that it helps clear residual build up in shower heads and faucet heads, well again we were amazed. The shower head in our bath has always had a few "sprayers" that dribbled water. In the span of one week the shower is spraying out of all "sprayers" and giving us the best shower our tankless water heater ever gave us!!!! The biggest thing we have noticed is that the water feels better on our skin, hair, clothes, and dishes are coming cleaner (no spots). I am a contractor and I prefer to use new products ( tankless water heaters, dual flow toilets, etc.) on my own home before I recommend any "new technology" to anyone. I can say in my opinion this product works and works well !!! The company has great customer service and I was very pleased with the purchase. hope this helps anyone looking for a solution to hard water issues.

WaterBoss Water Softener - 36,400 Grain Capacity, Model# 900 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The time had come for me to replace the old water softener. I went to Menards and immediately was impressed with the Water Boss brand due to it's low profile design and implied superior quality. Oh was that last part a mistake!
Installation was easy, programming was easy, life was wonderful until months later when it started beeping. The error code indicated a problem with the timer motor that operates the mechanism (while this is demand sensing, an electronically activated timer motor is still the method of mechanically working the unit - no issue here). So I pull the controller off and indeed see that the timer motor has failed. Pull the moter, check the serial number and, uh, oh ooooohhhhh...... Houston, we have a problem!
The paper serial number label, which is on the valve itself, is not resistant to salt dust! It was very hard to read, and upon wiping it with a dry cloth, all the numbers wiped right off. Now the date stamp on the motor was just months old, so I called and explained my situation. Water Boss could not have cared less. My 3 year warranty was useless due to their poor labeling system. "What credit card do you wish to use....."
Fast forward to many months later. After resetting my unit to delay regeneration and turning off the salt-gobbling 96 hour max run time, I noticed hard water one day, and the "days remaining" was still 11. IOW it was not sensing my usage, and indeed the water flow icon was not moving despite having the washer filling up. A quick inspection reveals that the ribbon cable from the hall effect sensor for the water flow turbine has corroded at the controller connection. DUH! This is clearly a product defect. Yet it will be out of pocket again since my 3 year warranty is useless. Hmmm - I wonder how much THIS under 3 year old part will cost me?
Do yourself a favor, just avoid this brand. Older units may be the picture of reliability, but I've read too many bad comments about the new units and poor customer service - a real eye opener when you, like me, have experienced the same fate.

Morton Salt Company 34M Wtr Softener Unit Msd34c Water Conditioner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I haven't bought a softener in about 15 years when we owned another house. This system is one unit like most of them. The tank and brine container are in the same unit.
This was very easy to install. Our house had the plumbing for an older one which was removed when we bought the house. From the time I got the box to the basement we had this up and running in about an hour. It popped right into place.
The discharge hose comes with clamps that hold it onto the discharge pipe. However I ended up using a hose clamp only because I felt more comfortable with it.
After I turned the unit on, I was a little concerned because when hitting the recharge cycle it was filling up with water. I haven't had one in so long I called Morton to make sure it was doing it correctly.
I wasn't on hold at all. I called the 800 number and pushed one button to let them know it was about a water softener and I was on with a live person. They let me know it was normal and that was the end of it.
It's now working just fine, I'll be sure to add any other comments if something goes wrong with it. Great softener for the price.

Clearwave Electronic Water Softener System Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We've had one of these water softeners at our house for 10 years. We've recommended them to family and friends, and installed them in other peoples' houses, and everyone has been amazed that they not only work, but work SO WELL!
We bought one for our son for his brand-new house, which had very hard water, and iron pipes. When the water-softener salesman came around the neighborhood and tested everyone's water (planning on big sales), he couldn't figure out why the results were so bizarre at this house. He was finally clued in, and said maybe he should start selling Clear Wave softeners!
Things we noticed right away: a significant reduction in the amount of detergent we used for launday; showerheads didn't get clogged as fast; water-spotting on tiles was easier to clean off; skin was less irritated.
"Installing" this unit consists of wrapping wire around the pipe that comes into the house, and plugging it into an electrical outlet. Ours has been chugging along for 10 years with no issues. It doesn't make any noise, it doesn't need to be "fed" or fixed. It just quietly does what it was designed to do 24/7. No chemicals or salts have to be added to the water, and this unit costs about as much as a light bulb to operate.
I was delighted to find this on Amazon, because I want to buy another one for someone who just moved into a home with old pipes and hard water. I KNOW it will help!
