Any ideas as to other options?
Bought a Sears hybrid softener/filter w/ 3 yr warranty <$1000

Mike Scott Plumbing (Dave) installed it running the water lines to the offset in the garage so I don't need to climb over it all the time ( cost $ 285).

Very pleased so far: 0 hardness & chlorine. Water pressure is normal.

Beware the "phone call/water test" crowd. Their products range from excellent to quackery and all want 3 to 5 thousand.
