13 best whole house water treatment systems

Whole house water treatment systems are comprehensive water purification and conditioning systems designed to improve the quality of water throughout an entire household.These systems are commonly used to address various water quality issues, such as hard water, sediment, contaminants, and taste or odor problems. Here's what you need to know about whole house water treatment systems:

  1. Purpose: The primary purpose of a whole house water treatment system is to ensure that all the water entering a home, including water used for drinking, cooking, bathing, and washing, is clean, safe, and free from common water issues.

  2. Water Softening: One of the most common components of these systems is a water softener. Water softeners use ion exchange technology to remove calcium and magnesium ions responsible for water hardness. Softened water reduces scale buildup in plumbing fixtures, appliances, and improves the lathering ability of soaps and detergents.

  3. Filtration: Whole house systems often include multiple filtration stages to remove sediments, chlorine, chloramines, and various contaminants. These filtration systems can include activated carbon filters, sediment filters, and specialized filters for specific contaminants like lead, arsenic, or iron.

  4. UV Disinfection: In areas with microbial contamination concerns, ultraviolet (UV) disinfection units may be part of the system. UV light kills bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms present in the water, ensuring safe drinking water.

  5. Reverse Osmosis: Some advanced whole house systems incorporate reverse osmosis (RO) filtration for even more comprehensive water purification. RO systems can remove a wide range of contaminants, including heavy metals and dissolved solids.

  6. Installation: Installing a whole house water treatment system typically involves placing it near the point of entry for the main water supply. This ensures that all water entering the home is treated before distribution to various fixtures.

  7. Maintenance: Regular maintenance is essential to keep these systems functioning optimally. This may include replacing filters, replenishing salt in water softeners, and occasionally cleaning or servicing the equipment.

  8. Benefits: Whole house water treatment systems provide several benefits, including improved water taste and odor, reduced scale buildup in plumbing and appliances, protection against harmful contaminants, and extended lifespan for water-using appliances like water heaters and dishwashers.

  9. Cost: The cost of a whole house water treatment system can vary significantly based on the system's complexity, capacity, and the specific water issues it addresses. Professional installation costs should also be factored in.

  10. Local Water Quality: The choice of a whole house water treatment system should be influenced by the specific water quality issues present in your area. Water testing can help determine the most suitable system for your needs.

In summary, whole house water treatment systems offer comprehensive solutions for improving the quality of water throughout a household. These systems can address a wide range of water issues, from hardness and sediments to contaminants, ensuring that all water used in the home is of high quality and safe for consumption.

User questions & answers

Question: My concern now is shipping, is there anything to protect me if I set this up and a leak springs up somewhere from shipping damage
Answer: It depends on the USB port. Some USB ports stop delivering power when the laptop shuts down. No power then fans shut off. But some USB ports keep delivering power (for charging phones, etc.) even when the laptop is shut down. Your laptop probably have both kinds of ports, so you need to check which port you plan to use. Does it turn off when the laptop shuts down, check when the laptop is plugged into power and when it's running on battery.
Question: What is the flow rate of the stage one and stage two systems
Answer: It doesn't look like it. There are 2 on/off buttons on the back, but 1 is to turn off the interior fans and the other turns on/off the edge fans. But only when they are turned off do the lights go out too. Cannot turn off lights without turning off fan.
Question: Will this work for well water sytems
Answer: I think you received a defective one. Mine was pretty much plug and play. Works via my laptop USB ports or my powered USB without issue.
Question: Is this considered a high efficiency unit? (How much water/ salt does it use during regeneration
Answer: Yes, there are two holding piece on the cooling pad.

3M Aqua-Pure Whole House Scale Inhibition Inline Water System AP430SS, Helps Prevent Scale Build Up On Hot Water Heaters and Boilers

3M Aqua-Pure

Based on 2 reviews Check latest price

Product description

The 3M Aqua-Pure Whole House Scale Inhibition Inline Water System AP430SS is designed to help reduce scale build-up and corrosion - thereby helping to extend the life on hot water-using appliances such as water heaters (standard (gas or electric) and tank-less), boilers, clothes washers and dishwashing machines, and on plumbing fixtures like faucets, pipes, and shower heads. The AP430SS provides a flow of up to 10 GPM with ¾” NPT inlet/outlet connections. Scale is calcium and magnesium deposits that often form when hard water is heated. Water hardness is responsible for most scale formation in pipes, water heaters, finishes and flat surfaces, and other water using appliances. Over time scale build-up can significantly shorten the life of any water-using appliance. Also scale buildup inside pipes causes loss of water pressure as the interior gets smaller and smaller over time. The AP430SS contains polyphosphates to bind calcium and magnesium hardness minerals, helping to prevent them from precipitating out (or becoming a solid) and building up on metallic surfaces. Polyphosphates also helps prevent corrosion by forming a thin protective layer on the metal surface. The 3M Scale Inhibition Water System AP430SS is tested by NSF International to NSF/ANSI Std. 42 for material and structural requirements only. The overall single vessel/cartridge design of the AP430SS makes the 3M Aqua-Pure AP431 Water Filter Cartridge change-out easy for professionals as well as end users. Change disposable filter cartridge every 6 months or sooner if you observe noticeable reduction in water flow rate. The AP430SS is to be installed on the cold water supply line of the water heater or at point-of-entry of water into the home. Tools and parts required (not included): one ¾” stop and waste valve (compression type), PTFE tape, two ¾” male x ¾” street adapters, one ¾” compression gate valve, and pipe cutter. Read all instructions carefully before attempting to start installation. The existing shut-off valve remains in place and still acts as the cold water shut-off. This filter system has 3/4” connections. The AP430SS can be adapted to various pipe sizes by using reducing adapter on either end. Installation fittings can be sweated or threaded. Use galvanized fittings for installation of galvanized pipe. Aquapure by Cuno hot water system protector to reduce scale build up in pipes and extend life of water heater. Installs on cold water side of hot water system to inhibit scaling and corrosion.

User questions & answers

Question: Just received. It appears a lot of water bypasses the filter, can someone confirm this is not the case? Mine is just like customer uploaded photo
Answer: Not a filter, a water treatment cartridge. Rated at 10gpm by the manufacture, a small amount of the water flow is diverted down into the cartridge through a single hole in the elevated tab, in the center of the tee. The polyphosate is slowly dissolved and a small amount of treated water flows back up and out 3 small holes around the elevated tab. According to the manufacture it only takes 2-3 parts per million to treat for scale. A little bit will do ya.
Question: Does this help with water spots on glasses and scaling on bathroom fixtures
Answer: We have a lot of calcium in our well water. The heat from the hot water tank is what causes the minerals to form scale. We placed this on the cold water side of the hot water tank and noticed a big improvement in water quality, especially on shower doors and dish washer. I have changed it twice now. The first time at 3 mos because the info says it can clean up existing scale in pipes and fixtures. The bottom line is if your water is very hard that will affect how much benefit you get from this product. So will you be happy with a 50% improvement in quality? I know I am cleaning faucet screens a lot less. Still have a jug of vinegar around though! Hope this helps.
Question: GPM seems to low. I have 2 Tankless units, EACH one does 9 GPM
Answer: we have an electric tank less that is rated at 4.5 GPM. We have very hard water in this part of MA and also have a well. We have been in this house for 30 years and have had problems with pipes rotting away. When we installed the electric tank less we installed this filter also. We used the heater for a few months and than had the plumber perform the maintenance suggested by the tank less mfg. It was clean as a whistle. Our flow rate is not as high as yours but if you had one in line with each heater - i would think it would work fine. Our heater used 120A for 4.5 GPM - if yours is electric it most use a lot of power! For our use I am very satisfied with the filter and given our water quality situation and how clean the heater was - i would highly recommend this filter.KR in MA
Question: Can this system be installed with the filter in the horizontal position (copper pipe is running vertically
Answer: In my opinion, if this is collecting any particles before getting into Tankless water heater, the particle should fall in vertical direction so filter should be installed in vertical direction. I installed my filter in vertical direction before cold water is getting in to the tankless. In order to get a right answer, it would be the manufacture because they are the one who designs the filter.

How it works?

The ultraviolet (UV) treatment process is an extremely quick physical process. Ultraviolet light mutates and/or degrades DNA. When the DNA is damaged, the organism becomes unable to function because its “instructions” are garbled or missing. An organism that has no instructions cannot function and reproduce, and cannot cause infection. It is rendered harmless and eventually dies.

In the UV disinfection process, water is purified as it runs through a stainless steel chamber (also called a “reactor”) that contains a special UV- producing lamp. As the water flows past the lamp, the microbe in the water receive a lethal dose of UV.

HQUA UV Water Purifier is a water treatment device that needs to be assembled, but it’s easy to finish. Each part of it have its own function, we will introduce them hereby:

UV Reactor Chamber

The UV chamber is made by 304 stainless steel, which was widely used in food industry, medical, considered to be stable and durable.

Length-37.2 inch, diameter-2.5 inch, inlet/outlet 3/4”, no requirement of the water flow direction.

UV lamp & Quartz sleeve

Quartz sleeve (HQUA-OWS-12Q) not only provide an interspace for the UV lamp, but also ensure high transmittance (90%) for the UV light.

UV lamp (HQUA-OWS-12L, GPH925T5L standard 4-pin) provide enough UV light to destroy the DHA of the microbe and bacteria.

Electronic Ballast

Electronic ballast (HQUA-OWS-455EB) connect the UV lamp and the power (120V/60Hz), work as a controller in the system with 3.2 ft. (100cm) power cord and 3ft. (90cm) lamp cord.

User questions & answers

Question: Is this a Pentair product
Answer: I am not aware of variations of the manor cartridge as it has always been the same that I am aware of, mine was installed in 2014. I change the cartridges every six months and they work fine. As far as the descaler you would have to get a professional water assessment by a certified professional that can tell you what is needed to complete the proper filtration of your water
Question: Please i need a water softener but i want that soport 10000l for each regeneration. Please what model can you offer me
Answer: Immediately. It doesn't remove what is already there. It just conditions the water. I have bad eczema. When the filter is new, my skin doesn't dry out. When it gets around 10 months old I can tell exactly when to change it because my skin starts iching.
Question: Can you recomend a softener please? i have well water in florida 21 gpg 4.5fe. getting really bad copper color staining in house. thank you
Answer: Yes you can shut off the main. Make sure they bleed the pressure off with the pressure release valve or button on the very top. Remind them to put something down under to catch excess water.
Question: Is the resin installed in the tank, on the 5600sxt with 64,000 Grain Tank (2.0 cu.ft
Answer: Never had an odd smell to my water. However, Nuvo technology indeed has its limitations. Years after purchasing the Nuvo system (since I only reside in this home 1-2 months per year), independent evaluations states that the Nuvo system will not perform well on water exceeding a hardness of 10 grains/gal of water. My water was/is 12.04 grains, but the Nuvo technical experts were far more interested in a sale than admit the limitations of their technology. Unfortunately, a total waste of money ($1,850) for me. My Nuvo system is being removed and replaced with technology that is compatible with my water hardness.

User questions & answers

You can press the clean button to start a cycle.or youn can press program and change the frequency of back flushes along with the day and time you want it to cycle.
Question: Will this eliminate the rust ring in the toilet bowl
Answer: It will remove the rust from the water. Throw a chlorine puck into the tank and use a rust and scale toilet bowl cleaner to remove the rust that's already in the toilet.
Question: Will this work with well water
Answer: Absolutely...this is my 2nd unit...i have hard water and some iron ,sulfur order with my well water. I also. Have a water boss brand ,water softener . Between the two units my water is great. I much research this system seems to be the best for the $$$.
Question: will it removed sulfur (smell) from my well water
Answer: I have the exact same problem and this completely fixed our issue. We didn't want to drink the water because of the Sulphur smell and taste, but as soon as we installed this we couldn't taste it anymore. We did have a cheap sediment filter before this because our water had a good amount of sediment and rust. The pre-filter was probably 25-30 microns for most of the time, so consider that. We've been using ours for probably 6 or 7 years and haven't touched it, and the water is still great. I know others said it wouldn't remove the smell and taste, but it worked and is still working wonders for us.

User questions & answers

Question: I received the main part of the filter today, it’s sitting crooked in the base and is tilted, is this going to effect how it runs
Answer: Both the pre-filled media tank and resin tank can be replaced after 9-10 years. We simply recommend replacing the tank itself since replacing the actual resin tends to be a bit labor intensive.
Question: Can this item be shipped with a 3/4" bypass valve
Answer: Hello, Thanks for your interest in our Waterdrop 15UB-UF Under Sink Water Filter System. I’m sorry to tell you that our under sink systems can not be shipped to India. If you have any other questions, please feel free to give us a call between the hours of 8:00 AM-5: 00 PM (PST), Monday through Friday at 1-888-352-3558. We will try our best to help you out. Thank you very much. Best Regards, Mia Lauren
Question: How many ppm of hydrogen sulfide will it remove
Answer: It is promised to be good for 24 months but after that it depends on how much you have used it. Just common sense I think
Question: How long does the catalytic carbon media typically last and how much does replacement media cost
Answer: The person saying antifreeze is full blown poison obviously doesn't understand that RV freshwater antifreeze is NOT the same as engine antifreeze. You should just sanitize your system with a cup of bleach in the freshwater tank for an hour or two and then run lots of water through each faucet, hot and cold. Your water system is now good as new and will be free of anything harmful.

Capacitive Electronic Water Descaler System - Alternative Water Softener Salt Free for Whole House, Reduces the effects of Limescale and Rust formation [CWD24, Max 1" Pipe]

Based on 556 reviews Check latest price
  • HOW IT WORKS BETTER: Yarna CWD24 is a PATENTED water descaler whole house that treats water with electric impulses which are generated in the electronic unit & are controlled by a computerized micro-chip. The signal-frequencies are transmitted via the ULTRA FLAT IMPULSE BANDS that are wrapped around the pipe. The bands form a frequency-field that changes the crystals in the water as it flows by. By that, the crystals won't stick one to another forming the limescale that breaks your appliances.
  • WHO BENEFITS FROM YARNA: If you have: Blocked piping systems, Dull surfaces and malfunctioning machinery, High costs for heating, High expenses for cleaning, Rust accumulation in the pipe that leads to corrosion, Bacterial growth in drinking water-carrying pipes, and Others. Depending on the condition of your plumbing (how large the limescale deposits are), it might take up to three months to notice a significant improvement.
  • EASY & CLEAN INSTALLATION: You need access to a Min 10” of free pipe space and a Max 1” pipe diameter. However, you do NOT need any tools or specialized help. It takes 15 minutes to install and will work Maintenance Free. Our water descaler whole house works with ANY pipe type up to 1” thick: iron, copper, stainless steel, plastic, PVC, PE-x, compound pipes.
  • WHY DESCALING IS BETTER THAN SOFTENING: Our YARNA house water softner system descaler does NOT eliminate wanted minerals like Calcium and Magnesium. Minerals are good and a necessary part of our diet. Yarna does NOT use salt or waste any water. Water descaling is a process used to reduce the negative effects of hard water. It prevents minerals from forming scale deposits, which is the main disadvantage of hard water.
  • RISK-FREE 365 DAYS - 100% MONEY BACK GUARANTEE: Our promise is that you will enjoy a limescale-free environment as long as our YARNA house water softner system descaler is installed. To that end, should you not be satisfied with the product’s performance, you have a whole year to return it for a full refund.

  • No plumbing job needed, easy installation.

User questions & answers

Question: anything to indicate unit is on or off
Answer: Yes, it comes with two circuits that can be used on two separate pipes if your water is set up like yours. The key is to do hot and cold pipes, not just your hot line. Make sure the direction of the wire wrapping is the same direction related to the flow direction of the water. If not, the circuits will cancel each other and the device will act like it is off or disconnected.
Question: Would a plumber or electrician be called to install this if I am unable
Answer: This is not a device you want to install outside.I installed it on the wall inside my garage. Basically I had to make a hole on the wall to get the leads to connect to the Eddy. It was handy to have an electric outlet near to the area where it was installed.
Question: Will this work to eliminate hard water spots when washing my dark colored vehicle
Answer: I don't know about car spots, but we have way less build up on the sinks and shower head.We put the unit on the galvanized iron pipe in the 1950's home we bought, and we could see a difference after a few weeks. Then we moved to a condo and installed an Eddy on the PVC incoming water pipe and we could see a difference right away. Much less stool ring, sink scum and shower head build up. I would say that the Eddy seems to work better on PVC than iron pipe. It may pay to insert a section of PVC for the Eddy if your home has iron plumbing.
Question: Does this really work
Answer: my home is 3000 sq feet. i tried it and after 30 days my whole house has delicious drinking, washing, showering water. the water tastes like it has been filtered. our white clothes are whiter. no more chemically smelling sludgey water !!!

Product features

How it works

The main constituent of the lime scale is calcium and magnesium carbonates, these compounds form into hard deposits setting on the rough or heating surface, like sinks, faucets, pipes and inside appliances.

HQUA 5000E functions by the complex, frequency modulated electromagnetic wave that transmitted through two cable bands wrapped around the main water pipe. When the frequency meet the natural frequency of the calcium carbonate which is dissolved in the water. A physical phenomenon called "resonance" occurs, and the dissolved calcium carbonate is precipitated out in the water now.

The calcium carbonate will stay in the water instead of stick to any surface of the fixture, since its crystal texture is not that sticky any more. Meanwhile, the carbon dioxide that released from the water will help to dissolve existing scale deposits and drain from your plumbing system.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • FAQs - Pipe system

Q: What is the suitable size and type of the pipe system?

A: The diameter of the main water pipe should not exceed 1.5 inch. Private homes are taken care of with one unit that treats the whole house, even for a 7 members family.The HQUA 5000E could fit for all types of plumbing, including copper, iron, stainless steel, plastic and galvanized.

Q: Where to install HQUA 5000E?

A: At the entry of your pipe system, the main water supply should be the point.

  • FAQs - Operation

Q: How to judge the working condition of this unit?

A: There are three green lights on our main unit. The one above represent the power supply condition, two lights below represent the working condition of the output electromagnetic wave. Both on means everything alright, no light if it failed in their function.

  • FAQs – Function

Q: What’s the maximum water hardness that HQUA 5000E can handle?

A: 25 gpg/425ppm.

Q: Will it change the water hardness? Will it soften the hard water?

A: No, the HQUA 5000E is not a water softener, it works differently. It change the crystal texture of the carbonates, you will enjoy the water just like it was softened. Easy lather up for the soap, better physical sensation, gradually disappearing scale and unobstructed water fixture. All the benefits for a family use will come to you as you have a soft water now.

Q: How long will it take to remove the original scale?

A: Well, it depends on different situation, normally after 1-3 months you will see the scale is reduced obviously. It might need a long time to clean your pipe system totally, just as the time that the scale formed.

Product description

The iSpring ED2000 whole house electronic water descaler is an innovative, computerized water conditioning system that solves hard water problems without the need for chemicals, salt, or filter cartridges by leaving the minerals in the water and preventing them from forming the limescale deposits. It requires little maintenance as it does not need the constant salt additions or cartridge replacements that traditional water softening systems require. The ED2000 functions by wrapping two antenna cables around the main water pipe to form a coil, creating a complex, frequency modulated, electronicmagnetic waveform. This induces an oscillating electric field into the water, resulting in the agitation of water molecules sufficient enough to trigger the release of carbon dioxide and cause the premature precipitation of calcium bicarbonate. This process naturally results in a small increase in solubility, which allows the now unsaturated water to dissolve existing scale deposits and remove them from the water system. Limescale deposits on your fixtures will soften over time after regular contact with the treated water from the ED2000. This allows for easier cleaning of fixtures without the use of chemicals. Deposits on shower heads, sinks, and faucets will easily wipe off. The treated water will also allow soap to lather up more effectively, leaving skin feeling smoother and hair more manageable. For water over 25 grains of hardness, it's recommended to use a traditional water soften in addition to the ED2000. Water with high iron content (over 0. 3ppm) should use an iron removal filter prior to the ED2000. Homes with water mains over 1" but less than 1. 5" may need to use two ED2000 side by side, and water traveling more than 50 feet may require an additional ED2000 farther down the plumbing line.

User questions & answers

Question: Will it stop mineral buildup in the toilet
Answer: Order a system with 3/4 inlet/ outlets. Mine was one inch on both for my water flow.
Question: How does this descaler create a pulesating magnetic field without a completed circuit on each coil? There would be no current flow
Answer: PhilWe have installed softeners with brine tank 25' away and the system works fine.Bryan
Question: Can you use it cpvc
Answer: Yes, as it recharges the system, it drains out the discharge line
Question: i understand this prevents mineral build up in the pipes, but does it also have the same effect as a water softener as far as washing clothes
Answer: Yes it can be installed outside. The control valve is water proof, but you will need to get an electrical cover to water proof the electrical connection. No there isn't a cover available for this system.Bryan

Traditional Water Softening Process

Traditional water softeners work by "exchanging" hard minerals like calcium and magnesium, for soft minerals that don't build up and form scale. However, these systems come with a hefty maintenance cost, and create soft water loaded with sodium that is neither healthy nor desirable to drink. Soft water is even aggressive enough to leach lead from your pipes and plumbing lines.

ED2000 Water Descaling Process

The ED2000 uses a patented computer chip to emit an electromagnetic wave, matching the resonant wave frequencies in the water molecule clusters. This causes the clusters to break down into active twin-molecules with much larger surface area and better bonding capability with the hard mineral ions. The water molecules in their new state can pick up and carry the hard mineral ions, greatly reducing the likelihood that they adhere to pipe surfaces while allowing the existing scale to begin breaking down.

ED2000 Water Descaler Limitation

High iron content in your water will reduce the effectiveness of the ED2000. For source water with iron levels over 0.3 ppm, it is recommended to use an iron removal filter (WGB32BM/PB) before the ED2000.

ED2000 Water Descaling Limitation

The treatment effect of the ED2000 is only temporary, and after traveling about 50 feet, the water molecules will bind together, reforming the large clusters. This means that for larger homes, an additional water conditioner may be required.
