Nova fixed the tank but it is barely soft now and we are getting mineral deposits on the faucets. We will be replacing the Nova system.

So, yes we need a softener here but not a Nova.
We had our Nova system installed in 2018 and it's still going strong and would buy from them again if needed. I'm sure there are occasional problems that pop up just like any other product on the market. I'm pretty sure that Nova is the most popular brand being used in TV especially south of 44.
