Home owners; Water Softener or Water Conditioner. I have a water well and the piping is PEX.

I don't have a well, but I have tons a friends and family that do. It depends entirely on your water and what issue you are trying to resolve as a conditioner and softener do different things. My uncle uses both at his house as he has a softener for hard water and it smells like sulfur really bad without the conditioner.

My parents had a softener for their well, but I've never had either, just town water.

So, where I live, all houses have some sort of well and use a septic for waste water. Generally well water is great because it is naturally filtered, but it can be chemically hard, which is our issue. It leaves red gunk stains over long periods of time. It doesn't smell, which is good, just hard. The overall goal I want to achieve is to install a filtration-Conditioner/Softener system between the water pump line and the water heater. That way the showers, sink, washers, fridge can benefit from it. So I was just curious if anyone else out here has a well system and if they recommend either a filter-conditioner or filter-softener, as you cannot use both conditioner and softener at the same time, or so I have read. |

Every time my customer says something stupid and stops me from helping them out of the mess they made, I am going to add an extra hour to my time sheet.
No, I'm not, but I really want to make that a rule.
