I am looking at their models online. They all have bypass valves. Should be a 90 degrees turn and the leak will stop while maintaining service to your home (of unsoftened water).
I live in Sabal Chase. I removed mine and cannot tell the difference. I am thinking about a Nova whole house filter, but do not see the need for a softener.
For a definitive answer, Home Depot, Lowe's, and Amazon sell hard water test kits for about $10.
