Buying Guide: Water Softeners

Two Softener Sizes
The 700 softens up to 70 grains per gallon and has a 22000 grain capacity. The 900 softens up to 90 grains per gallon and has a 36400 grain capacity. Both models also reduce up to 10 ppm of ferrous iron and filter dirt and sediment.

Whole-House Softening
Both models are built for whole-house softening, so one unit treats water for the entire home. The 900 is the high usage model for large families. It includes a factory-installed bypass that helps extend filter longevity.

Well Water Use
The 900 offers whole-house softening and is effective for treating most well water problems. Review your water test results to see whether iron, hardness or sediment is the main concern before you choose a model.
