Capacity in water softeners refers to the number of gallons between regenerations. Mine is sized for the hardness of the water and the number of people in the house. Water Bosses regenerate based on demand - mine regenerates about every 7 days. If I used more water in a week (guests in town) the regeneration would occur more often. The measured hardness of the treated water is 0 grains per gallon.

As a water softener it is only about half the recommended size that's needed.

If you really want a high quality softener at twice the capacity I can install one for $750

But again we don't advocate the use or need of any water softener.

You won't find too many dealers talking you out of spending money?

40 years I'm doing water filtration I know what works here, I live here.


If anyone wants a used softener let us know I remove several a month and can let you know where to pick one up on the curb for free.
