Which System Do You Need?
Softener vs. Filtration vs. Reverse Osmosis — What’s the Difference?
| Water Softener | Whole-Home Filtration | Reverse Osmosis | |
|---|---|---|---|
| What It Does | Removes the minerals (calcium and magnesium) that cause hard-water scale | Reduces sediment, chlorine, and other contaminants for cleaner water | The gold standard for drinking water — crisp, purified water and ice |
| Where It’s Installed | Main water line — treats the whole house | Main water line — every tap in the home | At the kitchen sink (under-counter) |
| Best For | Hard water, scale buildup, protecting appliances | Sediment, taste/odor issues, general water quality | Drinking water, cooking, ice — final polish at the tap |
Many homes benefit from a combination. We’ll test your water and recommend exactly what you need — nothing you don’t.
