    I use the NuvoH2O cartridge (which fits in a standard 20in Big Blue housing) with a 20in 10 to 1 micron filter.
    The NuvoH2O, and filter, are replaced every 6 months at a cost around 145.00 (110.00 for the Nuvo, and 35.00 for the filter).
    Home depot also carries the NuvoH2O.
    This setup was requited before the plumber would install a tankless water heater.

      Thanks for sharing your experience with Nuvo!

    I have ok city water. But very hard, leaves lots of build up on glass in showers, etc. is there a filter that works great for that?

    • @waterfilterguru

      For hard water you either need an ion exchange water softener, or a water conditioner like the Springwell Futuresoft reviewed in this video.
      The only way to completely eliminate hard water minerals is with an ion exchange water softener.
      A water conditioner on the other hand alters the structure of the hard water minerals, making them unable to stick to each other or surfaces to form difficult to remove scale.

    Hi, I am on city water but it is very hard and has a lot of chlorine.
    My plumber is recommending the Halo 5 but I have doubts about it working.
    Would the future soft work for me in your opinion?

      It's hard to say without looking at some data. Do you have lab test results you can share? info@waterfilterguru.com

    Would a salt free conditioner do any good with well water as hard as 200 gpg? I currently have a morton water softenerand 3 stage iSpring carbon filter for the whole home, and additional iSpring RO filter for drinking water and i get that down to 3.4 gpg. The rest of the house without RO I still have discolored water, white spots, buildup, and staining.
    I'm looking at upgrading to the iSpring WF450k which is maintenance free, and would like to try a salt free conditioner unless my water is too hard.

    • @waterfilterguru

      Honestly, a salt-based ion exchange system is your best bet for extremely hard water

  • @tub73431

    My water hardness is 8 gpg.. I’m not so concerned about scale build up more concerned about showering and washing my hair. How has showering experience been since having this?

    • @waterfilterguru
      @waterfilterguru  ปีที่แล้ว

      Salt-free conditioners really won't help with soap lather, as the water hardness minerals are still present. (just less able to form scale). If soap lather for washing your hair and showering are your primary concern, I'd recommend considering an ion exchange water softener to completely remove the hardness minerals.

    So there’s still scale build up on the faucet? Isn’t it supposed to get rid of it? I have salt based water filtration now and there’s no scale build up at all

    • @waterfilterguru
      @waterfilterguru  ปีที่แล้ว

      There will still be mineral deposits, but they should be able to form difficult to remove limescale. It should be able to be wiped away easily.
      As you mentioned, salt-based ion exchange water softeners completely eliminate the hard water minerals, so you won't see the buildup at all

    Is the "media" you reference plastic based? Is it the resin type beads? Trying to find a softener without plastic / styrene / resin.

    • @waterfilterguru
      @waterfilterguru  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I'm not sure if the TAC media has a plastic component to it or not. I'd recommend reaching out to the manufacturer with this specific technical question

    Is this similar to Puragain system?

    A lot less limescale and much easier to clean, great system, would recommend.

    What bad chemicals does it remove....?

    • @waterfilterguru
      @waterfilterguru  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Water conditioners like this are only intended to alter the chemical structure of hard water minerals. They do not reduce impurities that pose health risks. For that you'll need a water filtration system, like thisth-cam.com/video/6lKqQk3Ss80/w-d-xo.html

  • @billhickman7903
    @billhickman7903 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Only use if you have very low hardness

    • @waterfilterguru
      @waterfilterguru  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Agreed - In most cases for elevated hardness a salt-based ion exchange water softener would be a better option.
