It has a permanent filter. Highly recommend
I had the same device installed about 2 months ago and recommend it. The extra carbon filter reduces the chlorine taste quite a bit.

Sears has an installer and they charge about $300. While I consider this a bit high, they have a slick way to plumb the output water into the ground.

Also, we use potassium chloride to eliminate the additional sodium and it seems to work just fine.
