Water here is not real hard, only the water softener companies tell you it is.

I called the water company myself and they said on a scale of 1-15 it's a 9, hard is 12-13.
Soft is 7 so it's just a tad higher

A water softener only gives you soft dirty water, the other filters they may addon are not as effective as Nova whole house filter.

The Nova filter, filters down to a 5 micron size particle.

For example your fridge (tiny) filter only goes down to about 20 microns.

The Nova filter at $495 is a good one time investment.

the filters are only $70 a set for all three, to be changed out at 12-15 months.
