There are three types of water softeners: salt-based softeners, salt-free water conditioners, and electromagnetic conditioners. What to Look for in a Water Softener Type If you're on a budget, check out the Waterboss 36,400 Grain Water Softener ( view at Home Depot), which can accommodate up to 4-person households. It filters 40,200 grains before launching triggering a 2-hour regeneration cycle that uses just 37 gallons of water. The GE GXSH40V Water Softener ( view at AJ Madison) is our top pick as a water softener for average-size households. This water softener not only delivers on its promise to remove iron and grains from your water, but its smart technology almost anticipates your needs, which is why it's our top pick. The controller will also provide you with a ‘Days to Empty’ indicator, giving you an at-a-glance indicator of when it’s time to add more to the 230-pound capacity salt bin. Using the digital controller, you can adjust water hardness levels, conserving salt usage, or increasing water softness to suit your preference. One of the most unique features of the GE GXSH40V is its blending valve, which allows you to adjust the hardness of your water to match your needs. At 14.4 x 22.4 x 47.6 inches, it's likely small enough to fit in your laundry room or water closet. This model only takes about 30 minutes to an hour to install, which is much less time than other water softeners on the market. Its smart features aren't the only thing that makes this water softener our top pick. Regeneration takes about 2 hours and uses 37 gallons of water. It features GE’s SmartSoft technology, which allows the system to detect water usage patterns and optimize regeneration schedules so that softened water is available during peak periods of usage such as during your family's morning shower rush or at dinnertime. The GE GXSH40V has a 40,200-grain capacity-sufficient for typical 4-person households. "Smart" and "efficient" are two ways to describe the functionality of this popular whole house water softener.
