Default Water Softener

Something to consider when thinking about a softener is that if it is a salt based softener that house plants will not be happy with the water. And remember - at least at my house - the outside spigots are on the house line not the irrigation line. Easy to test by turning off the water at the connection in the garage and turning on one of the outside spigots. I have a water filter because of the chlorine smell when I first moved in (Nova System) - wish I had a softner for the calcium in toilets and on faucets, but my orchids would not be happy!
