How to Purchase a Water Softener

Kare11: How to Purchase a Water Softener


Comment: Our water softener basically failed. We are getting some soft water but the unit (now 11 + years old) needs major repairs. The question for us was should we repair the old unit or purchase a new unit with a 5 year warranty. We opted for the new unit and it will be installed Monday. The article from Kare11 is helpful for shoppers. I called Surge, EcoWater Systems, and Culligan. We bought the most basic system without the fancy controls.

We new the existing system had problems because the brine tank would fill to the top and overflow. Or the brine tank would be completely dry to the bottom. While we were in Dallas, we had a major overflow.

  1. My parents switched to one of the water softeners that use magnets a few years ago. It works great for them. No salt to buy.
