  • water softener

    Always curious about these;

    Does this work?
    Was it easy?
    Ballpark cost?

  • Yes it works - the EASE report on ours shows we've had around 12Kg of rock (limescale) removed from the water since install, about 4 months ago.

    Install was super easy for our installer. He did a great job.

    We went for a large softener with a refiner (carbon filter) installed, which has enough salt in it for roughly 300 days of operation. Install was about £1,600 for that, including installing in the garage and running a waste pipe and water connection for a washing machine (which was being moved to the garage).

    The softener we have is huge. You can get ones without a carbon filter etc and a smaller salt reservoir that fit under a kitchen sink.

    Softener is the tall blue thing.

    Your water softener removed 12Kg of rock in 4 months?

    3kg of rock per month?

    1kg of rock every 10 days?

    WTF is wrong with your water supply... and a sieve would probably be cheaper.
