The reps that installed my Kinetico system did a great job. Since having it, the taste of the water is way better.

The Kinetico system works fine. You don't taste anything when you drink the Kinetico water.

I have a Kinetico water softener and I also have the drinking water system. The system is very simple, you just put salt in the tank when it needs to be replaced.

I like the excellent reviews of Kinetico and the fact that it does not use any electricity and has two tanks. It’s more environmentally sound by not backflushing on a timer, only backflushing when it's needed. The installers were also remarkably good. The price was high but acceptable. They were exceedingly professional and did everything properly. There were no leaks. It all went very well. Kinetico also makes much higher quality products than Culligan. You will not be disappointed with choosing Kinetico.

The installation of our Kinetico took half a day. It was not complicated. But there were some guys that were being trained. So that process didn't go as smoothly. They probably weren't as clean as they should have been. But I'd recommend Kinetico. The hardness of our water was gone and the smell was gone, too.

Good Water installed our Kinetico system. However, the person who installed it made some mistakes and caused a lot of water damage. But as far as the system, we got an under-sink water system and it is very good.

We've had the Kinetico system for four years now. That's the only water I drink and use for cooking. I wanted it so much that we even put the spigot in the kitchen for drinking water. So they hooked it up to my refrigerator. If I want water out of the refrigerator or against it, it's filtered. Then it's also filtered to the sink. It was a little more complicated for them to hook it up that way. But that's what I wanted. So that was what they did.

Your business model is terrible for the end user. Dealers in Houston are terrible. Infinity Installed system incorrectly. During a warranty repair this was identified. Replacing an in warranty broken bypass valve the attempted to remove it and install cheap ball valves. Warranty is to replace with same or better parts. This is theft. Had I not caught them they would have done this. Not until I showed them the warranty paperwork did they put in the correct parts. The other dealer in Houston will not come to North Houston. So your end users are stuck with Infinity. We have 2 of these systems. I also have referred this to a local friend who installed this system. I can no longer recommend this product or your company.
We are sorry we were not able to bring this matter to a satisfactory resolution. These concerns were born during the height of supply chain issues and employee shortages through all industries.
You have made an investment into your water that is anticipated to last for years. We can only hope that moving forward your confidence will be regained with any possible additional service needs you may have.

Setting up our appointment with Kinetico was very well done and the rep was good. I’ve been working with them to have a yearly inspection. Plus, there was an issue with a valve that, when the system would activate, it would hum and vibrate. The reps were able to figure out what that was. But it took quite a number of trips to figure it out because it didn't happen all the time. We were using the water and it would hum and you could hear it all through the house. Then, it would subside. We recorded the noise and sent it to them and that helped in isolating the issue. The reps found out that something was improperly installed when it was done in October 2019. The installation team was good but the guy was supposed to leave an owner's manual or get us one and he didn't. I had to go online and get it. But other than that, they did a good job troubleshooting that problem.

I have the Kinetico water softener and reverse osmosis system. The water is nice to wash clothes and take showers with. The soft water gives a little bit more suds when washing hair and it doesn't leave the skin feeling dry. Also, with reverse osmosis, it’s really good drinking water without having to purchase bottled water. It saves money in that regard but there are expenses for upkeeping it. There are some intricate filters that have to be changed one to two times a year.

Our experience wasn't great with Kinetico. We had to have them come back several times over a year and a half. Kinetico RO is still intact and still working pretty decent. But we probably need to get some new filters. But our Kinetico contact moved on to his own system and the company got sold locally to somebody else. So I don't know where we stand.

I've had Kinetico for five years now. First of all, I've got a carbon filter on my entire water system. Subsequently to that, a year later, I bought a soft water system. The Kinetico rep was excellent. His first name is Troy. He was a nice guy and explained everything to me. We had a leak, and he came back on a Saturday and fixed it right away. I was impressed with that. As far as the carbon filter goes, it's hard to notice a difference. But we didn't have any cloudiness in the water. You also didn't taste anything and that didn't take that long. Then, the soft water was almost immediate. I'd recommend Kinetico.

The system worked well. We got a whole house system in addition to the drinking water system. We had top satisfaction. We were experiencing some mineral staining in the tubs and the toilets, and that completely went away. We had to change the filter, and that varied based on the variations that we experienced in our well.

Some of our maintenance issues have decreased compared to our old water. So the system must be working okay. But my biggest complaint is the salt. Somehow it turns into one big rock in a tank and we're constantly having to do maintenance on it.
Hi Geoffrey,
We are sorry to hear of the issues with the salt bridges. Unfortunately, this is really more site related than it is brand related.
If it's possible to keep the temperature and humidity around the salt tank consistent, that helps. You can also fill the tank just 1/2 way rather than full.
Please check back with your installer for other tips they may have found to be of value based on their experience in the area.

It's a good system. It’s worth doing because it will increase your health. I've noticed that I get better water.

I got Kinetico back when I bought my home from the neighborhood association. The home had a water softener in it. The water was soft but they tested the water. They had this drinking water, and all of it was hooked in together, and the drinking water was no good. I ain't satisfied with the payment plan, though. I've been paying for it for five years. The system cost me $5,000 and they say I still owe 3,500. I don't get it.

I'm not really happy with Kinetico and I never have been. I don't like the way it works. It makes a lot of noise. It uses a lot of water. It's running half the time. Then nobody ever calls to make sure that I have enough salt.
Hi Sandra,
Is the management team of LTM Water aware of these concerns? We'll reach out to them to have them follow up with you.
Kinetico offers the Kinex Salt Monitor which will notify you and your dealer when your softener is ready to have salt added. We'll suggest that they review the Kinex salt monitor and the Kinetico apps with you.

In my first home in Rockford, I did my research about water softeners and systems for reverse osmosis and I came across Kinetico. I liked the fact that it did not require any electricity and that it was highly effective. There was a price that you have to pay extra but the system worked like a charm. It was worth it and I'm highly satisfied.
When we were building our first house, the builder wanted to place a different system for water softener. But after he installed everything related to Kinetico, that was the system he had been trying to use for every single deal he made. He was impressed with our system. When I moved to the area where I live now, I didn't have any doubt and I just got a new Kinetico system for drinking, reverse osmosis as well as water softener.

I would tell friends that they should stop shopping around and just to go with Kinetico because it's very reliable.

Kinetico's customer service is very nice and they’re right on the ball. They do everything they can for you. I have to drink an awful lot of water because I have kidney problems. So, I love my Kinetico. I wouldn't be without it and I just had a new one put in the garage. I feel safe when I can drink my water. I had the system serviced every year for a long time and the guy who owned Kinetico here in St. George came and told me that I don't use water for cooking and I don't have a house full of people, so I only need to change the filters for the one in the kitchen every two years, which was very good of him because he was honest. He could have said that I need it serviced every year and charge me to do nothing.
I just had the system in the kitchen serviced a couple of months ago. But the one in the garage didn't have to be serviced. It's a brand-new one. The system was quite expensive but that's okay. It doesn't need filters so, I'm set there. But I keep up on servicing everything. If they say a year, I have it done every year. People should get the Kinetico system if they can afford it. It's an investment. When the guy came two years ago, he said the one in the garage was kaput. I told him to put in a new one. I didn't even think about it. It has been here 20 years. It has lasted a long time.

I looked at Kinetico, went to the home show, walked up to a guy and said, "Hey, I've done my research, I want you to install a system. This is gonna be the easiest sale ever. Ours is 20 years old. It's gotta go. Drinking water system softener." He said, "I will call you," he showed up and it has been good. The water quality is good. I've just been noticing our shower heads are getting scaly. Against my better judgment, he said, "I don't think we need to do a water test because I just did one down the road about five miles." But there's something going on and it needs a tweak to run it a little more often per gallon. And our water was different. I was about to get on the app and shoot him a message to see if he could come out and test my water because we never tested it just to see if I'm a little harder than what was preset on the unit and get that dialed in.
I like that we don't have to think about our system. It's easy to use. It just does its own thing. I like that it runs whenever it needs to run and we've got the dual tank so it can run during the day and we still get processed water out of the other tank. All I have to do is add salt whenever I needed it. I wish my system was even smarter and it had a connection to the app right from my system so that I could see how it's doing. But maybe that's the next version of the system, meaning it's got a WiFi connection that connects to my home, and I could see how everything is doing versus have to manually look. The next advancement in my drinking water house softener system would be to make it "smart" where it could say, "Here's my drinking water filters, their remaining life, my softener status, and when it's running."
It would be cool for the guy that installed it to get alerts from the system versus from me. Because my furnace and air conditioner have that. If there's a problem, it sends the company that installed it a notification about what's going on, and they call me and say, "Hey, this is going on. Can we come out and take a look?" versus me going, "I didn't even know that." Because he installed drinking water, reverse osmosis, and the softener. If Kinetico could go to that next leap and monitor that for me or for itself, that would be cool.
Hi Eric,
We appreciate this feed back. Kinetico's claim to fame is non-electric products. It's difficult for you or the dealer to be notified of the product's performance.

Hi Michael,
We confirmed that your product is 3.5 years old and still covered by the Factory Warranty. However, as discussed with Kinetico's Customer Support team, this Limited Warranty does not cover the dealer's cost of service.
Most Kinetico dealers offer a 1 year service warranty, not all; but most. Had your installing dealer been notified that you were experiencing salt water intrusion from a product malfunction within the 1st year, their cost of service would probably have been covered.

Kinetico's initial explanation of what was going on was really helpful. They educated the consumer, which is something we really tried to do in our businesses. The product has done a good job. We do save money on salt because it does not use up salt very quickly, which is good. That's been effective as far as helping us to save on our budget. It's just we live in an older house and I do think that there's some residue and stuff inside of our pipes that keep it from making our water rust-free. It is a little bit frustrating given the price of the system. Our water's much better, but it's not by any means perfect. So, it would have been good if they gave an explanation of what are some of the issues that may not be resolved with the system. That way, there'd be a little bit of a clearer understanding.

But they were going to charge me $100 just to come out and do a water test for me. That did not sit very well with me. It was an $800 system and I've only had it for two and a half years. So they shouldn't have charged me $100 for that service call, but that's their policy. So I just opted not to do it. I didn't feel it was warranted to spend that kind of money for a six-minute drive.

Kinetico refuses to sell to the public in the US and the service companies charge anywhere from $150-$200 for a service call (at least in my area). Then on top of that my filters are another $300. The installer and salesperson will never tell you this. We are a family of 5, so we typically go through 500 gallons every 4 months. This system is costing me nearly $1500 a year to operate, I also have an r/O system in front of the K5, so I also have salt cost on top of this. I would never recommend a Kinetico system based on the operating cost alone. I will also say that the local installer for me also caused me more than a few issues. As soon as I have the money saved up I will rip this system out and replace it with another brand who does not use proprietary hardware.
Hello Chris,
We checked with Infinity Water, your area Kinetico dealer. They confirmed with us that they have many customers that change their own filters. Most of their customers do have a technician walk them through the first filter change then continue on their own after.
You are correct that Kinetico Incorporated does not sell to the public. We are a manufacturing facility that does not have the resources available to include all the staffing and warehousing involved in Direct to Consumer sales.
We thank you for choosing Kinetico and hope that with some time, you recognize and appreciate the investment you have made in to your family's water.

I always had a water filtration system growing up. When we lived in apartments, we couldn't have them so my laundry and my body were just yucky. The water filtration system was one of the very first things we did when we bought our house. Not quite a year after we moved in, we got the reverse osmosis because we were doing a Britta thing and it was so dumb because it was like pour-it-and-fill-her thing then the next day, it was empty. We were spending a lot of money.
When my grandma moved up here from Southern Minnesota, I always heard her refer to Kinetico. I saw that it was family-owned and super close to our house. We called there and never had a problem. Their people were wonderful and super friendly. We were having issues with our softener and the salt wasn't going down. They came out that day to check it. In here, we installed a low pressure water showerhead and theirguys said, “Everything is looking good. It's just you're not using as much salt because you're not using as much water.”
We rent our water heater and reverse osmosis drinking water. It's nice to be able to turn on the drinking water faucet and not worry about filling the Britta and waiting a few minutes until a full glass of water drips down and is filtered. The reverse osmosis works differently and we liked the idea that it would remove more impurities with four filters instead of one little one. The water is really good. It’s just fresh and clean.
Thank you for sharing your Kinetico experience Bridget!

We had single tank system and we had some complaints about that. So they switched us to the dual tank system and that seemed to alleviate some of the problems. Although we have been somewhat satisfied, our water has never been as soft as it was with the previous manufacturer. It's much softer than it would be without a softener, but it's not as soft. The required maintenance of the system has been very low. Although, we stopped calling about the water not quite as soft because they came a couple of times and it never improved. So I just came to the realization that this is as soft as it gets with this system.

I did a home water system for hard water, a water softener for the whole house. I also got a unit that removes all the chlorine from the city water for the whole house. I purchased a K5 water filtration system for drinking water in the kitchen sink.
It's been a great system and it does wonders for the city water that we get. The hard water stains have disappeared from everything. One of the things that I liked about it was that it's not electric. It's just mechanical. It seems like there's much less to break and I haven't had any issues with it. It costs a lot of money, but it's a one-time thing and I own it. So if I move, I can take it with me. It's one of the best things that I've purchased for the house. I've been really happy with it.

Plus, I don't have to handle those big bags and pick them up and try to get them in there. It takes up very little space in my storage room. I'm very pleased with Kinetico.

The Kinetico system works. The best thing about them is that they don't require electrical regeneration for the salt. Our water would be a lot worse if we didn’t have one and I wouldn’t use it without one.

I tried Kinetico on an investment property that I had and it worked out fine. Then, five years ago, when I bought this place, I called them back and used them but I have not been real happy. I hoped the water would taste good but it doesn't. Also, there was black charcoal in the bottom of my ice maker and black rings around the toilet from the charcoal filter. They were here just two weeks ago and they replaced the filter. I'm hoping that this will work. But they were saying that they got a batch of faulty filters. The rep felt under duress to come up with answers that he didn't have and he was trying his best to answer our questions, but he really didn't know.

I've had Kinetico for a long time. It seems to work all the time a lot. It meters the water, so you only treat. It doesn't regenerate, only when it needs to, not like a timing mechanism. It's efficient that way. The downside is some of the ports in the orifice are really small, so it’s sensitive to any grains of sand.

I also have a Kinetico system at our other house. I purchased one recently and they did a very good job. If they could have gotten rid of COVID, it might have helped. But other than that, they serviced us very well. The system brought the pH within acceptable limits and the softness to a bearable standard.

Kinetico's customer service has been great and the water is a lot better than it was. It's a lot clearer and there's no rust. Also, it's a lot easier for me because they come and put salt in it every two months. I don't have to worry about it.

We rented a system at first and a year or so later, we ended up deciding to buy the system. It was a smooth transition. Once we did it, the guy showed up with a new system within two days, swapped it out, and we were good to go. Since having Kinetico, we don't have as much iron, which was really noticeable before, and we're not getting stains in our sinks and stuff.

Our water's really bad. I was hoping that getting that water softener from Kinetico would make that go away. My husband said he sees a difference. To him, it's not as hard. But it still makes rings in the toilet. All the techs that have come up here have been very nice. But it's not convenient for me the way the scheduling is. That random email stuff doesn't work for me, ‘cause I’ll likely miss it. I was just looking for another way of communicating to get the schedule and have a more consistent schedule. Like, "We come out once every six months. Here, let's schedule this.” More routine, more professional life.

Our water is still slightly discolored and tastes like metal. We had an annual service check a few months ago and the technicians did some adjustments. They said there was iron in there. But it's still happening, like it's never fully fixed. It could be the severity of our water problem or it's not big enough for our household or it could be them.
Hi Nancy,
We would recommend a follow up. Kinetico's expectation is fresh, clean water from our products.

We like the system. It's good. I put Kinetico in all the houses that I build. If anybody wants a water softener, I recommend Kinetico.

The rep knew the products and he did a good job presenting them. With the reverse osmosis system, the water is clear and has no taste. It's reassuring to know that the water we're drinking and cooking with is clean.

We love Kinetico. The sales guy was amazing. Absolutely the best demonstration I ever saw. We were sold, we got it. We're perfectly happy. We have no more grime all over our shower doors. It's perfect. The water's softer. It's also pleasant to take a shower. They're also totally reliable. We need the salt re-delivered, they come and do it. It's very easy to get ahold of them and have them come over.

Everything was smooth when I purchased Kinetico. The installation was terrific. It seemed to be a very knowledgeable plumber that was able to get the job done. It seemed to go very well. I have noticed a difference in the water. When people come to my house, they no longer say, “What's that bad smell?” Inside my toilet tank, it no longer looks like a science project growing in it. I highly recommend Kinetico.

With a whole house water system, Kinetico came out, did the presentation, and told me how much it would be. I went with them because it doesn't work off electricity. When I got a shower, it was softer.

I like Kinetico. It's my second system. I had it at my old house, got it here. If I move into another house, I'd get another one. The water tastes better when the filters are fresh.

We love the soft water with the Kinetico system. We got accustomed to that. I'm a heating and air conditioning contractor and an electrician so the quality of the machine means something to me. I live in Eastern North Carolina and the prettier the lot is, the closer to the flood elevation you are. So, water softeners that use electricity can't be in the flood elevation, but a Kinetico can because there's no electricity there. We love it. We have the reverse osmosis system in our house as well for our ice and drinking water and we're very pleased with that.
Also, their customer service has been good. Everything I've ever needed, they've taken care of. They have exceeded my expectations of how fast they can get to us.
Hi John,

I like Kinetico. When I felt that the tank under the house wasn't big enough, they came back and fixed it. When I felt that there was a little bit of iron coming into the thing, they came back again and switched the system around at no charge. They've been a good company. With the system, my toilets are clean and at the back of the toilet where the water is being pumped into, there's no rust. I don't have to wipe it out every three days like I had to do before. And as long as I change my filters, which I do every four days to keep a clean filter in there, I don't have a problem with it. The water has been coming out clear. Plus, I bought a little water tester, and it always stays up into the 90s. It goes to 100 and I've never been under 96.
