Here is a link to this type of system. I drink my water out of the tap and it tastes like bottled water!

Someone on TOTV recommended it! The water is soft and tastes great as well.... Just another option.

Got one of these about a year ago for about $ 700 and had it installed $ 285 by Mike Scott plumbing. I have a Lantana with an offset in the garage and the plumber taped into the line and ran it to the nook out of the way. Uses about 2 bags of salt or potassium chloride a year with a usage demand flush which you can set. Has worked great for me.
