A filter purifies the water it removes chlorine & contaminates to give you great clean tasting water, but a filter doesn't remove calcium which is a mineral.

A softener only softens removes calcium, magnesium an some chlorine, micro plastics sediment and all other contaminants pas thru it.

So a Whole house filter purifies a softener alone softens resulting in soft dirty water.

You don't have to have a softener it is optional not required you will get a greater benefit with the Nova Filter @ $599

But if you wish we can install the filter & softener together at $1450

Getting back to Calaways question, you can clean those deposits of calcium with CLR about every 6 months or we can add a water softener for $899

Call us for your options 566.2649

A softener doesn't remove this
