BUYING GUIDE
Clean, soft water can transform your home experience, from smoother skin and softer clothes to preventing scale build-up in appliances and pipes. Water softeners are designed to remove hardness minerals like calcium and magnesium from your water. Here’s what you should consider when in the market for the best water softener:
1. Type of Water Softener
- Salt-Based Ion Exchange Softeners: These are the most common. They replace calcium and magnesium ions with sodium ions.
- Salt-Free Softeners: Instead of removing hard minerals, they prevent them from depositing as scale. They’re suitable for those on low-sodium diets.
- Dual Tank Softeners: For homes that use a lot of water, these ensure soft water is always available.
2. Size and Capacity
Choose a size based on the number of people in your household and your water usage. Check the unit’s “grains” capacity; the higher the number, the more hardness it can remove between regenerations.
3. Regeneration Style
- Metered Systems: Regenerate based on water usage, ensuring efficiency.
- Timed Systems: Regenerate at specific times, which might waste salt and water if not accurately set.
- Manually Regenerated Softeners: Requires manual operation, but there’s no waste.
4. Available Space
Ensure there’s enough space where you plan to install the water softener, especially if considering a dual-tank system.
5. Type of Salt
- Rock Salt: Less pure and might leave residues.
- Solar Salt: More soluble than rock salt.
- Evaporated Salt: The purest form and often recommended for most softeners.
6. Bypass Valve
A bypass valve allows you to divert water away from the softener. It’s useful when you don’t need soft water, like watering plants.
7. Certifications
Check if the softener has been certified by organizations like the NSF or WQA, indicating it meets specific performance standards.
8. Installation and Maintenance
Some water softeners are easy DIY installations, while others may require professional help. Check how often the system will need maintenance or salt refills.
9. Environmental Concerns
Salt-based softeners produce saline wastewater. If you’re environmentally conscious, consider salt-free softeners or ones with efficient regeneration to reduce salt and water waste.
10. Cost and Warranty
Prices vary based on the type, size, and features. While it might be tempting to go for a cheaper model, consider it an investment. A more expensive unit might last longer and work more efficiently, saving you money in the long run. Also, ensure a robust warranty backs the product.
In conclusion, a water softener can greatly enhance the quality of water in your home, promoting health benefits and prolonging the life of your appliances and plumbing. When choosing the best fit, consider your household’s unique needs, consult professionals, and review customer feedback to make an informed decision.
