💧Water softener or water filter—which one does your home actually need?
They’re not the same thing!
A water softener is designed primarily to address hardness minerals such as calcium and magnesium.
A whole-home water filter can target things such as chlorine, sediment, taste, and odor.
And a reverse osmosis system is designed to provide highly filtered drinking water at a dedicated faucet.
The right system depends on your home’s water and what you’re trying to accomplish.
