I have a Nova System for 3 years now. Very happy with it. Didn't like the taste and smell of the unfiltered water. Just know, it is not a water softner, but a filter system. We still are snowbirding it so we change our filters about every 18 months, which works out fine for us. Do not need a filter in the refrigerator since it is a whole house filter. Without it, water for us was hard to enjoy.

Have you had the water tested by an independent testing company? As a retired commercial plumbing contractor. I have found that very few customers that had municipal water supply needed a filter. Most municipalities do an excellent job monitoring and treating the supply.

I had significant amounts of lime depositing on the showerheads. It was a white crystalline build-up that I had to clean often. Installed Nova system and now rarely see any build-up.

I had the Pegasus system put in my house when I moved in 5 years ago and so did many of my friends. Great system basically no maintenance they are wonderful people to deal with and my water tastes great and good on washing and hair

We had this system professionally installed with a bypass for $80 labor.
I change the filters every 10 Mos. We use about 3500 gallons a month.
No more chlorine smell in the shower.

Whirlpool ... automatic cleaning itself every 14 days ... cost of only around $500 ... easy installation by plumber ... cleans out all the chlorine etc.

Not a water softener. Nova filters the water, removes the pool smell and dirt. Look at the pictures above. Most of Florida's water is dirty so they kill it with chlorine. Nova is great. I even bought a system for my home in VA.

Purtronics is the best system out there water is crystal clear and tastes like spring water my facets are always clean no white build up on them from lime. I love that my skin feels super soft after my shower It is a personal choice but you will never regret this system. Call Robert tell him Dawn Allen sent you. He is the owner and will take great care of you.

If you are talking about a water softener making you feel like you are never rinsed, then you water softener is not work. We are talking soft water here. Your skin should feel slippery because the crap that makes you feel like you are not rinsed is gone.
I sold filters and water treatment system in NH for years as a. Wholesaler so I mean thousands.

Filters of any type have nothing to do with pipe damage

that is a scare tactic from unscrupulous sellers

At Nova we tell you the truth.

The feeling of not being rinsed off is improper setting on a softener and using salt rather than potassium

Call us for the correct info please

It's not a filter only a softener

And it cost how much?
