It's expensive - over $5K - but, he says, well worth it.

These are the hidden fees with TV...and don't get me started on the bond.
Your sales agent's comment doesn't make sense. When you read all the threads on water filtration and softeners you will find the Nove three stage system is the best and the water softeners, at least the salt type are all basically the same. The difference is in the build quality and cost. Although Culligan is a premium system, and you are paying for it, many are very over priced.
