I think this guy is trying to help, but I have had a whole house Aquasana filter system for 2 years. I am on a well. It has been awesome. No complaints. Easy to maintain.
I’m not saying they don’t work. They will do the job. My main issue is there are better systems for the money. This company in my opinion sells systems mainly for the residual service and not really to fix water. Most systems out there that I would recommend are tailored more to fix the specific issues of your water and not just a one size fits all approach.
@@purewatersales537 Hi, I'm on city water with a high chlorine content, and I get a lot of scale. Can you recommend a system that is a better value? Thanks.
Feel free to give us a call and we can help you out. Our contact info is on our website www.pureh2osales.com
I realize it's kinda randomly asking but do anyone know of a good place to stream newly released movies online?
@Arthur Cash Flixportal =)
The 28 year old copper pipes in our house had a 3rd leak in the slab. In addition, the rubber flap in the 3 bathroom toilets where deteriorating prematurely. In researching this, I believe part of the issue is the Chloramine the water company places in the water. I found several reports indicating issues with Chloramine copper pipes and rubber flappers. I choose the Aquasana designed to remove Chloramine. It has now been 3 years, and now my toilets are running great, we did a water heater cleaning and it look like brand new. No issues after 3 years. Regarding the free shipping and discount, I always believe these companies sell these systems "On Sale, Free Ship, etc.", and that is the best system. But for the cost, it is a hell of a lot cheaper then plumbing issues, and or health issues, with Chloramines, etc.
You are absolutely correct on that. The Chloramine in the water is a mixture of chlorine and ammonia. The chlorine is what is messing with the rubber flappers and also o rings in the sinks. As far as cooper did you have any blue green staining? If so he sure to check your PH and make sure it’s not low. Good luck and at least you made a choice to do something when so many choose nothing at all.
I find it amazing that with all the comments about your review which seems to be people selling this unit or people saying the water tastes fine or great. Why is it that no one and I mean no one is talking about what is being filtering. If you are not testing prior to purchasing, then how do you know you are filtering out toxins and heavy metals. The happy homeowner that says it tastes great, has absolutely no clue, because they never tested pre and post install. Seriously, most homeowners that are not on well can be sold a tank with nothing in it and they would say thank you, the water tastes great. If you are on well water and I get rid of the sulfur smell, you would thank me and say the water is great, yet the water was never tested post install so they would never know if toxins and heavy metals have been removed. So in reality most filtration installations are fear installs, not fact installs. Educate yourself with the science of proper filtration.
I quit fighting that one. I plainly said my reason for not liking them is I have never tested one after a year that works like it should but homeowners don’t pay attention to that. You hit the nail on the head with this comment. Thank you!
I have not only 1 Pro whole home aquasuana system, I have 2. I have one at my home and one at my office. I was so impressed with the 1st system I bought a second. Ive had both for over 5 years and have ZERO complaints. My plumber charged roughly $400 for complete install. This included installing a gallons meter so I can see exactly how many gallons of water has been filtered. I would purchase again! I believe this guy means well but I don't agree with his presentation.
Did you say 4 Hundred to install? I'm being charged 4 THOUSAND 😮
I do get the point of the UV being redundant on city water however there are stories where people have gotten fatally sick when city water plants had failures and organisms were able to grow in city water. It is a fairly cheap insurance policy!
But we’re those things a cheap UV light would kill? And also how much chlorine was in the water, most have enough to kill about anything already.
Let me guess, your system is better.
There are many better than this one. There are also some better than the ones I sell
I've had mine for 7 years. Have had absolutely no issues with it. Water tastes great.
This is a great alternative to water softeners. A whole house water filtration system can do a lot more than a water softener. This outperforms all salt systems that I've ever done
If you are comparing just a softener to any carbon based system you are comparing apples to oranges
I installed this in my home on a weekend. I'm not an average joe working a 9 to 5 though. I also called the county Inspection office and a permit is NOT REQUIRED as this is nothing more than an appliance. Thanks for looking
All counties and states will vary. Anytime you are cutting plumbing a lot of counties will require a permit. Some are even going as far as requiring one for replacing a water heater. Mostly it’s about them getting free money in my opinion 😉
@@purewatersales537 I
Yeah never needed a permit in Texas for a system
NC wants permits for everything. Like even replacing a toilet by code calls for one. It’s insane.
Wow! Almost bought a Aqua Sanna yesterday.
Same 😳
If you would like help shoot us a message and I’ll be glad to help you out!
I’d be glad to help you out with a good quality system.
Companies are smart maybe 50% to start with their equipment but obviously profitable bussines is selling filter replacement cartridges every 6 months that is real multi million dollars bussines
Very true. The only reason a company sells equipment is for the residual income the sale comes with. There is a local company that has been doing this since 97, they have 80,000 per month in service business before they sell the first system.
Why do i get the feeling that his company doesn't or can't sell Aquasana but can sell Pelican or others? My red flag is a review or recommendation that is contradictory (the Aquasana can cost $2K or more but the Pelican which can cost $2500 is cheaper?), or factually wrong (Aquasana is not selling a salt-free water *softener,* they're selling a water *conditioner* and say they do not do anything to reduce water hardness or TDS). Also, my city/county (in Western NC about 2hrs from Charlotte) does not require a plumber or permits for a whole house water filter system. I don't know if I'm going to get an Aquasana or SpringWell or something else, but this review didn't provide any reliable or trustworthy information to help me make my decision.
We could have easily signed up as a dealer for them but choose not to. Price vs cost of ownership are totally diff things. Springwell does seem to have decent reviews. And I would def double check with your permit office to make sure you don’t need a permit. Most countries in NC do require when cutting pipe to pull a permit.
So to summarize your gripes with this system: (1) there are redundant components to the filtration system (e.g., UV light, extra filtration stages), (2) you can’t backwash the filter, and (3) the tanks are disposable. Regarding UV, fine just don’t purchase that add-on if you don’t need it. Regarding the no backwash… would be nice to be able to backwash the main filter but the pre and post filters are cheap and easily replaceable so backwashing isn’t necessary with this system. The fact that the tanks (i.e., main filter and softener) are disposable is actually a plus in my mind - quick and easy system maintenance… and they are supposed to last 10 years and 6 years respectively (not 3-5 years as you mention here) sooo not seeing any issues here. To each their own though!
Thanks so much for that summary.
Both tanks are 10 year now.
I totally liked your explanation about the water softeners and demerits about aquasana... 50% discount could be a red flag, but usually they up the prices and offer the discount. While 50% discount is a red flag, most of the other water softener and your recommended product websites don't really put the prices on their website so they don't know what their worth is or they are not transparent about it?
That is another issue, most places will offer a discount, I do also…however 50% is insane. As far as pricing I have mixed feeling about that. When your prices are out there like mine are on my website I do loose some customers because they are price shopping. Sometimes the most expensive system is also the worst and some of the cheaper ones are junk so there is a lot more than just price that goes into it. Most companies will want to talk and educate the customer before giving prices.
Going on 3 years with the Aquasana System with all of the bells and whistles. Absolutely love it and can now drink the water and it tastes good! I change the pre-filter every month and the post-filter every three months. While it may not be the best system for everyone, it works perfectly on my well water system.
I’m glad yours works! As a “water guy” my main goal is help as many get clean water as possible. Even if that means a diff system than what I sell personally
I told you so😊❤
Would rather go for a more conventional backwashing filter
That’s always a better option. If you need any help reach out to us anytime.
I have psoriasis that became worse when I was showering daily. I stopped showering for about a month and is almost completely gone! Doctors want to blame it on your body and that you should take medication for life, when in reality is that the body is doing what its supposed to. Your oil protection on your skin is destroyed by the hard water, so psoriasis occurs as a way to protect you from it. When you use medication and prevent your body from forming plaques, the hard chemicals enter into your muscles and a skin condition turns into something terribly wrong called psoriatic arthritis. My uncle had it, he couldn't move his hands, his whole body was red and inflamed. He died at 53 from gut complications (they flushed their intestines which made them twist). Big pharma is going to kill you 100% if you go their ways.
Man that’s a lot of great information! Was you able to get it under control without medication? Sorry to hear about your uncle. 53 is way too young to go.
@@purewatersales537 Yes, I stopped medication a year ago but it wouldnt go away as I kept showering daily. I started to use oil on the plaques to give it a better appearance but they kept coming back and in different spots. I had to go cold turkey with everything and it was super embarrassing because it was mainly on my face and I felt people would just stare at me forever. I feel this prevents a lot of people from healing because you have to use something to cover it, which inhibits a long term solution. I also had chronic bloating (2-3 daily episodes for 3-4 years) and I couldnt tell what was the cause. I switched to distilled water (store bought) about a month ago to cook and drink and so far, havent had any bloating.
Get you a decent RO and that will give you the same quality and save you a lot of money in the long end.
Unfortunately people do like to stare, people like to just be jerks sometimes and I hate that about the world we live in. I’m glad you are facing it and getting it all fixed!
@@purewatersales537 I will! Thanks for the recommendation.
Hello. Thanks for your video. I live in Edmonton, Canada and use Aquasana for about 10 years I think. Can't really complain as it was serving us fairly well at least removing chlorine. Now it got clogged over the course of time and needs a replacement, however looking at their website there's no more mentioning of their system removing anything but chlorine and chloramine as opposed of a few years back where there was a big range of supposedly filtered contaminantes. So now being confused I started to shop locally and been introduced to Fleck systems. Do you have any opinion on these? Thank you.
Fleck is a decent but cheaper system. If maintained right it could last 12-15 years
Good information but it appears you are beating a dead horse over and over. Why can’t you recommend the best, highest quality whole house filter based on your experience.
There really isn’t a “best”. There are alot of good stuff but to say 1 is the absolute best would be a lie. I like the Rainsoft EC4 and I’m not a rainsoft dealer, I like Water Rights evolve series but in the end I choose to sell CSI equipment because of the quality control and customer service.
Says the guy that offers a $500 instant rebate...lol
Everyone runs a special sometimes. That’s not a on going thing.
I don’t know what your talking about this system is awesome I don’t like salt system it’s bulky to many times you have to add salt I have in my house and its awesome
Most salt systems are a lot smaller than a Aquasauna system. And to truly remove hardness you need ion exchange and that means salt or potassium systems. Some do have good luck with Aquasauna systems but in my experience everyone I get calls on is a nightmare.
A red flag to me is someone who beats a product to death, yet won’t offer any alternatives. Thanks anyway for your opinion. Be it warranted or otherwise.
I have other videos on what I recommend. And a lot of what I recommend isn’t even what we personally sell
@@purewatersales537 I see. Thank you.
To be fair, whenever there is a 50% off situation they are really never 50% off. Its 100% retail at 50% off. They will not take a loss.
Or even worse, they mark it up to 150% so they still get 100% of what they want.
1. Water hardness is the mineral saturation in the water. Filtering out the Calcium and magnesium will soften the water without having to add salt that clumps with those minerals to make them settle out of the water easier.
2. Paper doesn't discolor in water... The collection of rust which is very common in water systems builds up due to collection in the filter... If you place a white piece of paper in filtered water it will not "Discolor"...
White paper will not discolor if it is in pure water. That is correct. However it will absorb any impurities in the water causing it to discolor. Not sure I understand your question fully though.
Here is a video of our Off-Grid rainwater system with an Aquasana system.
th-cam.com/video/wSOXEXe2kb8/w-d-xo.html
Impressive set up
@@purewatersales537 thanks
We have the Aquasana RO3 water filter. It is awful. Constantly having to troubleshoot leaks. Do not buy. Maybe older versions are ok but the more recent units are no good.
That’s been my experience with them all when I get calls for service on them
This aquasana water filter and softener doesn't work. After years I had tons of scale deposits and water quality wasn't great when using to filter city water.
I hear that more than I want to.
I’ve had a whole house system for 5 yrs. We love it! No scale just crystal clear water! No problems with system
What is the best system then to get rid of the NASTY chlorine taste and feel in my water. We have city water in a small Texas town in a new built community and although hardness and pH level are OK, the chlorine taste has us looking for a whole house water filtration system that is affordable and efficient. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks
Get you a backwashing activated carbon system. Something is coconut ash would work well
I had Aquasana whole house system for 3 years and everything this gentleman says is accurate. I was only surprised he did not speak of the extreme pressure lost as the carbon filters began to clog after 18-24 months. We were not able to run two faucets simultaneously. Aquasana is a complete waste of money.
Thank you for the positive feedback.
A year and a half to two years without filter replacement??
Pull a permit? Get it inspected?
LOL!
If you want to be 100% legal then yes. I think it’s stupid myself but I have watched other companies get shut down and plumbers loose their license over it.
Funny good laff
@@poppinwithandy7742 it’s all about if you want to do it by code and what diff areas require. I agree with y’all that pulling a permit for this is not needed and shouldn’t be a requirement. Unfortunately some states and cities disagree with me.
@@purewatersales537 I would never pull a permit for that lol none of my plumbing I would get a permit for unless it was digging up the ground outside that's all God-bless
Hahaha good one
Watchout their water for life program that's the key to the 50% off!
Can you explain that program?
Thank you for the information

Thank you for your help and honest opinion ✌️😊 Digging further down the questions to ask are why is there 10 times the chlorine needed to kill all bacteria in the water? Why is the fluoride in the water to begin with? And if we are the filter why do we continue to poison our waters essential for all life? Remember we’re all safe in the long run, but if we want to improve our lives now and for our children the change starts with our choice every day. Buying a whole house water filter is a good choice to make for a start 😊 Peace and Much Love everyone.
That’s a long topic of conversation. Basically they do what they can with the budget they have and the main concern is bacteria. They feel that since that will affect everyone the same that’s the one thing to over do it on.
great questions, I had my blood tested for heavy metals and toxins and the only thing that was out of range was Fluoride. It was 8x the recommended value. Im on a quest to stop the fluoride in my town of Maryville, TN.
@@carolinewells4355 good luck! I HATE fluoride. The only ways I know to remove it are reverse osmosis and bone char.
@@carolinewells4355 Wishing you the Best of Luck =) There is absolutely no need for fluoride in our water supply.
@@purewatersales537 The Rainsoft rep said he could filter the fluoride down to .80. Is that an acceptable level? Not that I would drink that much Fluoride because I would reverse osmosis then destill my drinking water, but Is it acceptable for bathing and showering because I feel that it’s a gas chamber fluoride and chlorine at the moment
You spend a lot of time talking about the negative aspects of this system but from what I've seen if you don't want a salt based system, as there are a lot of negatives there health wise, then it's a very competitive product. Do you have a review of different salt free systems?
I’m working on a few diff comparisons on that. There are def a lot of great stuff out there. I personally recommend systems that I don’t sell all the time. For me it really needs to at least have a backwashing head for me to recommend. Also it’s important to understand that the calls I always get are from unhappy customers. There are prob thousands out there that are perfectly happy. Some have even defended them in the comments. If you watch my rainsoft video I actually praise their system, it’s their service fees I’m not a fan of.
Our well water smells like sulfur, would this get rid of that smell?
Best solution is something with air injection and test for iron. If you want to grab my contact info off the website I’ll be glad to help. www.pureh2osales.com
I have a lot of local clientele that has owned purchased and have had me install the system for them. Every single homeowner that I installed the system for is extremely content and satisfied with the quality of the taste and the feel of the water without salt
Without sale the system isn’t removing hardness…and what do you tell them about all the stuff in the tanks after a year?
Aquasuana whole house filtration systems have a warranty of 10 years or 1 million gallons filtered, whichever occurs first! Not sure where he gets 3 years from? Also, Aquasauna systems are cheap annually to maintain!
They have diff level systems with diff gallon ratings. Or there did at the time of this video
Thanks for the info
Great video 👍👍👍👍
Thank you for watching
This system is less than useless. Had it for a year before I took it to the land fill. Don’t waste your money.
I hate you wasted money on it. I made this video to try to help prevent people from making that mistake.
good video
Thank you
had two of them for 5 years. they work in SW Florida
Why did you need 2?
@@purewatersales537 two houses
Glad yours have worked out well. I never hope a system fails on someone.
I'm sure I changed my prefilter far more often than it says I need to But the water in Southwest FL is pretty nasty
Florida water is horrible 😂. Always better to change it a little early than too late
This guy sounds a little mis-informed regarding salt-free systems. Its a salt-free water conditioner. Doesn't claim to be a water softener. It doesn't filter or remove the hard minerals, it coats them. If you are on a well, you really should have a pre-filter (or spin-down). You never quite know what is going to get sucked up in the well pump.
They also claim their system softens the water along with filtering it. I agree that on a well a spin down or sediment filter isn’t a bad idea. But some of the newer systems on the market have a 10-20 micron filter built into the system to remove the need for that extra filter.
Water softening doesn't necessarily mean removing the minerals. The two main ways of softening the water are either by coating them so they don't bond to your plumbing and appliances, or by bonding them to a catalyst and flushing it away with salt. The salt method is probably the most common, but also wastes the most water and is worse for the environment. All those pounds of salt don't just disappear.
Thank you very much for your expertise. Watching your video was very helpful.

Im in an apartment with access to the hot water tank.
Is there any full system to accommodate me?
Do you have a individual shut off to your unit?
@@purewatersales537 i believe i do, there are a couple pipes and levers.
So you're saying its possible then😊
If you have a water shut off to your unit it is possible. Also if they will allow you to cut the plumbing if you don’t own the unit.
@@purewatersales537 something tells me permission would not be granted.
Worth a shot at asking though after i get a grasp at what im looking at in the boiler room.
Thanks for your insight
My contact info is on the website. If you want to email pics I can walk you through it
What do you recommend?
CSI is my top choice, Rainsoft EC4, water tight evolve series are the next 2
so i thought i had a decision made for ourselves as well our son's house before our plumbing on our new builds starts in 2 weeks but after seeing this i do not know for sure now. I was leaning toward the springwell system then the aquasana system now i am more confused.
There is a whole rabbit hole you can go down looking into these. My best advice is find a company you trust and consult with them. I’m of course partial to what I sell but mainly because I have customers all over the country and never really have issues with them
What is the replacement filler cost?
Depends on what unit you’re talking about. Avg maintenance is about $150 per year on our systems.
@@purewatersales537 thank you for your reply
Feel free to call me. My number is on the website www.pureh2osales.com
Thank you so much, this was very educational and thank you for the savings
🙄got to have a license plumber and a permit 😵
Not many do it but that’s code
You're assuming permits, inspections, and licensed plumbers are required. Maybe in the city, but not where most people would use this product.
I don’t known of many areas that don’t require a permit when cutting plumbing. But that doesn’t mean everyone pulls a permit.
Home Depot sells it, so the manufacturer is removed from the equation.
Home Depot is selling Aquasauna? Most Home Depot’s have a contract with Rainsoft in most states. Big contract for them. They get 8-12% of the sales depending on the rainsoft dealers volume
@@purewatersales537 Aquasauna is owned by AO Smith, so they have a foothold.
AO smith also bought out water right
So what is a good water system? Is culligan any better?
Really depends on the culligan dealer as far as service and how they take care of business. Personally I sell CSI nationwide and never have any issues. Water right evolve series is decent, the rainsoft EC4 is good also. I’d def recommend having your water tested. We do that free if you need it done.
does the product can remove Uranium Excess?
A reverse osmosis system is effective at that. We also sell a arsenic system that I believe does also
@@purewatersales537 would you tell me the model no??
If you go to my website www.pureh2osales.com all my info is on there under the shopping tab
Very good info!
Great video, thanks for sharing your experience!
Thank you for watching!
This is a great option for my house in Mexico.
If it won’t get much use it may work
waste of money
I agree
What do you suggest instead?
I personally like CSI and that’s what we choose to sell, water right is also a great option.
You must have been upset with this company.
Not really upset, just been doing this 12 years and never ran across one that world as advertised after 6 months
I'm on a well, existing salt system , looking to replace with a NuvoH2O. I'm thinking that I only need the softener part of the system as I installed a sediment filter years ago when that catches the debris that comes out of the well before it goes through the system. Am I thinking right? I'm a disabled vet and the Agent Orange has rattled a few cells. There's only myself and the care taker so the usage is pretty minimal. What do you think about the system? Thanks
What is your PH and iron levels?
Yes the information was useful.
Thanks for this video. What system would you recommend for someone looking for the best, longest lasting, low maintenance, no budget and has a well?
It really comes down to budget and what your levels are. There are so many but with a well PH iron and other things play a role in what I would recommend. My contact info is on my website. Feel free to give me a call and I’ll help advise you the best I can based on your budget and needs
What are your thoughts on Aquasure?
I’ve never heard of them.
If your on a Well, the water quality better be relatively good. Because where I live I have seen a couple of these installed by someone or some other company, and I have had to take these out. I work for a Water Well drilling pump company. I'm the water treatment department. We have such bad water around here in California because the drought. Iron is 7ppm+ Manganese is .4+ Ph is in some cases 5, because we do have some geothermal underground. Hardness can be as high as 60 TDS as much as 870+ So that is just some of the main crap lets not talk about the Boron Levels or Arsenic levels Silica We are getting to the bottom of the barrel out here. You need a backwashing valve Or an RO
Yea a Aquasauna didn’t handle that type of stuff at all…but they are cheap and have a good marketing department so they sell them. Where I am in NC we don’t have a ton of iron but I have seen TDS as high as 1700
Any top picks for a good water conditioning system?
I personally sell and recommend CSI. But water right evolve series is decent also
We offer nationwide service if you would like our help

Aren’t they a manufacturer tho? It’s not a water softener they sale.
They claim their systems “soften” the water also
@@purewatersales537 i called them and they did not claim to soften the water. and i dont want to use salt or waste water so i bought the system.
I hope it works out for you. Some filtration is better than none. I’m glad you are at least doing something for your water and see the importance of filtering it
Very useful thank you
Reach out to us anytime if I can help you in anyway.
There is no wrong in water treatment when you know what you want and know what you are trying to accomplish. However not all systems will be at peak performance when not knowing what a particular unit does and type of water it will be treating. I been in water treatment 17 yrs..
You are correct. When you know what you want and if the systems limitations still meet your needs then it will be fine for that person. All about checks and balances. If the price is good and it does what you need then that’s a good situation for the homeowner.
Thanks you very much for the video, you take all the marketing out of the equation and give us true information before we make a decision keep up the great work.
Thank y’all for watching! When I started this is was terrifying and still is. I believe in what I do 100% and even if someone doesn’t buy from me I want them to make the best choice possible.
Good deal! it filters out overtreated magnesium and chloride and other chemicals in the water!
I felt it when my prefilter cap was leaking (after 6 years of usage, the plastic started degrading) and I had to bypass the water and I could tell the differences ,,,very very smelly of chloride, magnesium brownish all over my RO system under the kitchen sink...
I just replaced my prefilter housing and put it back to service ,,,,feel much better with water going through Aquasana Whole House filtration system again (I have softener, filter tanks with UV light device)
UV Light do not kill bacteria or virus? hmm
6 years and continue counting!!
A UV light does kill bacteria but if you are in city water the chlorine they add kills it so why would you want a extra piece of equipment to service when it’s not needed?
@@purewatersales537 Great point, and possibly yes, I might not replace the UV Bulb anymore! it is $100 UV light replacement every years!
I honestly would just remove that piece of the system. I never put one on city water and only put them on wells if it test positive for bacteria or they have other issues that we need to make sure it doesn’t happen.
What water system does you like
I personally sell CSI, but rainsoft EC4 and water right are also good options.
So what is a higher end system that has a back wash?
Rainsoft, Westinghouse, CSI, water right, Westinghouse and GE are both made by a company called Levers edge though so not truly Westinghouse. My fav 2 are CSI and water right with Rainsoft being next in line. With Rainsoft ask about service. I’ll be doing a video soon on those systems
Lost me because of the government over reach at 1:57. This water filter should have nothing to do with government over reach or licensing.
If you mess up, it's your own fault.
With most things permits are helpful. They protect the customer from poor work quality from a contractor. Not all areas require it and most never do it anyway. These things are not that complicated to install with a little common sense.
Had a salt softner for 20 years. Couldn't control my High Blood pressure. Recently moved and was shopping for a new softner system. I noticed, however, my BP has dropped dramatically.
I dont know whether having salt pour over my body, during my daily shower, had any effect on my BP but I think I'll pass.
Another consideration of the resin softners is the resin. At 20 yrs, the conditioner tech wanted my to replace the system because he was afraid the system would fail and the resin would get into our pipes . I called my plumber and he td me he sees it often and the cost to clean those resin beads out of the house pipes.
Again, I'll pass. We need new water cleaning tech that isn't harmful to your health or pipes and that doesn't cost absurd amounts of money.
If you have a efficient system it won’t really add enough salt to soak into your body. I also recommend a reverse osmosis to make sure if there is any salt that it is removed before drinking. If the resin is quality AND it’s a backwashing system that resin should last 70-80 years. The only way it would get into your pipes is if the screen at the bottom of the riser tube broke and allowed it to pass through. Thank you for watching and for the great comment!
um there isnt anymore salt in ur water after it runs through the sofner
This has to be a fake post ... None of what is said in the main comment is as truthful as Joe Biden ... And evan if the resin beads got in to ur pipes um it would just eventualy just all rinse out of ur system in a matter of days if u just oprn up ur water taps ... hot water tank could be a problom but u can drain and rinse that out as well .

You are a salesman and Aquasana is your competitor. Shocking that you don’t recommend their product 😂
I recommend companies all the time that are my competitors. Actually had a guy call last week that bought a house and wanted a system. He had a Rainsoft EC5 and I told him NOT to buy my system because what he had was a very nice system that will do the job.
