I’m having a new house built in central Texas. One of my partner’s family members lives in the same town and is on the same water district supply. She said she often wishes she had a water softener.
The builder (a respected, established midsized developer of really nice houses) originally offered prepping the house for a traditional water softener, but is now saying they no longer recommend salt based softener systems for several reasons. They are suggesting a newer citrus based system because it’s easier on the pipes and also better for consumption. They don’t sell either type, so I don’t think they are being disingenuous.
Does anyone here have any experience with this type of water softener / conditioner? Here are two examples just for reference.
