    While we were not able to meet with the staff due to the current health restrictions, we had a great experience via email and phone. Once we scheduled the installation the installers did a marvelous job and we are completely satisfied. Thank you to Cheryl and the team at Integrity Water Solutions for a job well done.

    Kinetico was recommended by my general contractor. We had a complete renovation and our water system was put in during that. Our home is in Palm Springs, California, and we have a very heavy mineral content in our water. We had the system for the kitchen sink. We did it primarily to filter for drinking water. It does take away some of the mineral flavor that was in the natural water. I’ve been pleased with the product.

    We started with Kinetico back in 1991 and had them in our previous four homes. However, we haven’t had them since moving to Texas here. But we own a home in La Quinta and have Kinetico there. They partner up with individuals in all of the different regions and they restrict the AOR to that individual. It almost comes across that the sale people feel privileged. The challenge has been finding somebody that we like talking to.

    The purchasing process was not much fun in California. The salesman was really tough to deal with. The installer in California was outstanding. Even so, all the salesman could do was complain about the installer. He had no idea that the installer was the key to success there. If it was just him, we'd have tried to find an alternative. We’re big fans of Kinetico, but not impressed with the organization trying to see the system to us here in Texas. We’re searching for an alternative because the quote came back incredibly high. I think they're trying to take advantage of us.

    However, Kinetico is very effective in providing soft water and we really like the mechanism that they have for drinking water. The simplicity of the system is outstanding, with no power being needed and no regenerating on need versus on a set timer. It has really been maintenance-free and we use very little salt. That’s why we have been long-time customers. Also, we’ve had some filters shipped to us from time to time, and that has gone well.

    Things are easier to clean and the water tastes better with a water softener. I had a Culligan but because of the price, I looked into other water softeners. I got a Kinetico PowerLine softener over a couple years ago. I had to call some person that I had no clue who he was to buy the water softener. He came out and talked to me. His name was Jerry and it was a little hard to get ahold of him. I didn't like how I had to connect with the man and call him to make sure he'd come back. With Culligan, they say they'll be there, and they're there. Culligan was a much more professional group of people than this guy was. I also had no idea where the installers from Kinetico came from. They were dressed in regular old clothes with no name tag. When they came, I thought, "What are you here for?" But the installation was fine. I already had a system so all they had to do was take the old one out and put the other one in.

    I had Culligan deliver salt probably every two months, and that wasn't offered with Kinetico which I didn't realize. I'm old, so I have to get a son-in-law to get the salt for me. That was a really nice service that Culligan had. They would bring the salt and put it in the bin. I liked that a lot. If I were doing it again, I would go back to Culligan just for that service.

    We've been Kinetico customers forever. We've had their water softener for 20-something years then we just installed the water filtration. But then we had a repair. It was making some odd noises when it was refilling the tank. Then eventually, the tank would not fill. The local dealer had to come out a couple of times. They wanted to take the unit back and work on it in their shop but we pushed back on that a little bit and eventually, they agreed to just replace the whole thing under warranty.

    I rented a home water softener from this company from 2006 to March 31, 2020 and I paid approximately $3,500.00. I contacted Aquarius Water Conditioning on March 24, 2020 and spoke to them about possibly taking ownership of this Water Softener. They wanted me to pay approximately an additional $1,500.00. I thought that was ridiculous since I already paid them a ton of money for this Water Softener. I told them I didn’t wish to continue renting it so they came and picked it up on March 31, 2020. They should have given this water softener to me since I have been a loyal customer for almost 15 years and I paid a lot of money to them for this Water Softener. There is no way they can rent out this appliance to another customer being that it is so old.

    You can purchase a 40,000 grain water softener for $500.00 in the stores today. Not to mention, this country is in crisis from Covid 19 and money is tight. I lost my job because of it and I need to cut costs wherever necessary and this company did not even try to negotiate with me or accommodate me in any way. If you are thinking about renting one of these from this company please reconsider or you will regret it. I will not recommend this company to anyone!

    Hi Jennifer,

    Thanks for being a loyal customer to Kinetico and Aquarius Water systems. We are happy to know that you used and appreciated the product and the dealer's services for 14 years without concern and had the desire to keep the softener.

    It sounds like you entered into a straight rental contract that required payment for the product for the duration of it's use in your home. The good news with this type of contract is that the unit is kept in good working condition for you by the dealer for any amount of time in which it is being paid for. And yes, it can be reconditioned and reinstalled.

    Other options of ownership are rent to own, lease, there are financing options or a simple cash purchase.

    We are sorry that your use of the product did not end as you anticipated. We are confident that Aquarius Water would appreciate the opportunity to regain your confidence.

    I liked how Kinetico's system still works when the power is out. I went with them and the installation of my system went very well. The guys who came were pretty good. However, there was an issue a couple of months later and they had to come and look. There was a little piece of plastic from manufacturing which clogged up the system. The guy who came took care of it right away and everything went back to normal. So far, everything has been good. The system has been self-sufficient as long as I keep salt in it. There's even an automatic salt adder.

    I bought a new house and the water was very sulfurish. I knew I needed a water softener, I just wasn't sure what level I needed, how many grains, I don't know any of that stuff. I went to Home Depot to buy a $300 one. And one of the salespeople there said, "Why don't you have a in-home consultation." The in-home consultation came out. They checked the water and they said that Kinetico was a better product than the GE standard one at the store. I purchased the softener series from Kinetico. There's a chlorinator and there are two other big bottles and I have a big salt tank. The installation was fine. The technician was friendly, as well. Everything's been great with our Kinetico system. My glasses are super clean when they come out of the dishwasher. No haze, no nothing and my shower doors are super clean too.

I checked into a leaky toilet at one point and it had probably been going on for a year, but my water is a little bit high.

    Updated review: March 27, 2020

    The company has resolved the issue.

    Original Review: March 13, 2020

    On June 24, 2015 we had purchased water treatment/filter equipment from Costco for our new construction residential home. The products we purchased were all Kinetico Products and the installation was completed by a Kinetico authorized representative which we hired through Costco. As per our invoice we paid a total of $6,542.70 after tax for the following products; (1) Kinetico 2060s Tannin Plus, (2) Kinetico Professional Installation, (3) Kinetico K5 Standard Drinking Water Station, (4) Kinetico Professional Installation, (5) Drill Hole on Granite, (6) Extra Sediment Filter, (7) Bag of Salt, and (8) Kinetico Designer Faucet (Chrome).

    A water consultant authorized from Kinetico, came to our home and tested our water, advised us of what is typical in the surrounding neighbourhood, and gave us a report with his expertise on what we would require in order to have clean water entering our home. Only after the consultant's analysis and recommendation did he order the equipment and provide us with the work order. As per the consultant's diagram which he provided to us, he recommended that from the well the water should travel to a booster pump, then a pre filter, then a water softener, and finally through the UV light. It is important to note that even when the consultant tested the water he was aware that there was iron in the water.

    We solely relied on the Kinetico authorized consultants' expertise as we assumed that a Kinetico authorized representative was educated and experienced enough to provide us with the necessary information and advice to ensure we have clean water in our home. Our current situation is that all of our water has hard minerals and iron flowing into the water. The water is undrinkable, has a foul smell, and has significantly damaged our bathroom fixtures. Our family is unable to properly wash our clothes or shower without a strong smell of iron and minerals due to the condition of our water treatment systems. We have been advised by another Kinetico authorized agent that our water systems need to be replaced due to the fact that iron has likely damaged each individual unit.

    We have unclean water and are no longer under our labour warranty. I spoke with customer service from the above mentioned consultant's business and they advised us that labour to come inspect the issue would be $180. I spoke with the consultant and he advised me that the issue is likely the water filter and to change them from the prefilter. I advised him that I changed it two days before our phone call and changed it every month to a month and a half. He advised to change it again and that he will come and inspect our water, even though the filter was two days old. I complied and changed the filter again. So the consultant came to our home on February 20th, 2020 and inspected our water and changed the filter again.

    I asked him why does the water come yellow suddenly almost sometimes a few hours after changing the filter to which he advised me that since the water is under a well and there is a lot of minerals and dirt in the well that's why sometimes the water will go yellow. I am not an expert in water treatment but in my opinion the water treatment is supposed to treat the water and make it potable and usable. We are not just supposed to accept that because we have a well sometimes the water will become yellowish and smell and that we should keep changing water filters on a hourly to daily basis. We had a second opinion completed by another Kinetico authorized business. On February 25th, 2020 we were advised that our water has significantly high amounts of heavy metals and that every single one of our water treatment equipment needs to be changed.

    When considering water equipment for our home we heard amazing things about Kinetico and wanted to also share in this great experience but however we are unable to do so caused by this significant issue. Currently on March 13th, 2020 we are beyond frustrated. With the Covid-19 virus going around and business closing down - WE DO NOT HAVE CLEAN WATER. How am I supposed to ensure we have clean water to cook our food or keep us clean from any harmful virus? Just know right now due to this significantly slow correction from Kinetico me, my husband, and children all have to shower at the gym. Imagine that... spending so much money and time trying to get this issue resolved and still having to shower in a public place in the midst of a pandemic virus.

    We also received a text today from the Kinetico authorized consultant which basically says - "I am consulting with the technical expert, please wait so I can get the best outcome for you." How long does Kinetico expect us to wait, we need answers now so we can take our next steps to getting this issue resolved with or without Kinetico's support.

    When I bought my house, there was a rented system in it. I ended up buying that, but it was undersized for the house and went through a lot of salt, which was why I chose Kinetico. The people I bought it from installed it. I was thinking it would save me money on salt. I don't use nearly as much salt, but I'm still using more than I expected to. It goes through about 10 bags of salt every month and a half or two. It's not really saving me a lot of money. But I like that it just automatically does its thing and I don't have to do anything.

    We knew that the water stability in the area we lived in, more or less, changed a lot from year to year.

We wouldn't be replacing it every couple years. The whole thing is worth the money. They work, you don't have to mess with them, and there's no electricity. I was extremely happy with the way they worked and the time that it lasted. The water quality was great and it was very consistent. The softener and the drinking water system were both excellent.

We have a professional relationship with Huemann Water Conditioning and we told them what we were looking for. Huemann handled it and we got a Kinetico. We have separate lines feeding out to our coffee machines, so having their system is convenient. It's affordable too. There’s a lot less mess and it's easier.

    My old water softener had sprung a leak. I got a Kinetico water softener. I like the option of having the two tanks. When one’s filled, you could then use the one tank while the other one regenerated. The lady rep from Kinetico was knowledgeable, really friendly, took time to answer any questions, and came back when we had questions later on. The installation was fairly simple. The gentleman came in, took out the old equipment, brought down the new equipment, and installed it. He was pretty clean, kinda kept everything contained, and he was in and out within maybe an hour and a half. Since having my Kinetico, I had seen reduced amounts of rust in my water. And with the showering system, they said, “You’re gonna need a lot less soap,” which is very true. I would tell others, “It’s the way to go. You will not be dissatisfied.”

    I had a water softener for about 20 years, and then it quit. I wanted something that was low maintenance, and the one from Kinetico fits the bill. So, I ordered it, and then a very helpful gentleman installed it. The system is in a rental house and I heard that it's much quieter, which may be a function of a new model. The users also don't notice the change in the water nearly as much as they did the other. Kinetico is excellent.

    I had Kinetico in the past in another house. I put it in in '06. And so, when I moved in 2013 into this other house, it didn't have it. It did not have a very good system. The Kinetico was a really high-end quality product and what I put in my house in '06, I liked it. So I kept it in mind where if I needed a new one in this older house I bought, that I would replace it with that. It was a lot of money, but I went ahead and did it.

    Honestly, I don't think the new Kinetico system that I bought is as good as the old one. There are things about it that don't seem like it's as good as the other one. The container that the salt goes in doesn't seem to operate the same way. They said I can't fill this one to the top with salt. I can only put a couple of bags in it a time for it to work properly. I was like, "What does that mean?" They said it gets too compacted at the bottom and then the system doesn't work right. So now, I've got to constantly check it every couple of weeks to make sure I'm not running it out of salt. And they didn't tell me that till after I put it in. So, that bothers me. The issue I was having is the other soft water system was really old and used a lot of salt, and this one uses way less salt, which is what Kinetico does. So it is doing that.

    When I moved into the house, I noticed the calcium deposits on a lot of faucets and showerheads. The water was very hard. So I got the reverse osmosis system, as well as the additional filters that you can get as add-ons. I have a spa in my house, and the salesman that I dealt with was familiar with the area and the supplier for the water in our area. He talked about the amount of chlorine that was in the water and I didn’t believe him. So I got my spot test kit out and tested the water out of the tap and he was correct. There was as much chlorine coming in my tap as I keep in my spa to kill bacteria. So that’s why I got the filters as well.

    There has been a difference with the taste in the water since I got the water system installed. I also don't have to worry about all the various calcium deposits on my appliances because I had replaced some appliances not too long before I got the system. I didn’t want them to have all that hard water stains and calcium to build up.

In my opinion, it’s putting a lot of salt through it, but that’s just what I know about it. He went and checked everything out. He didn’t really change any settings. He said there really wasn’t anything wrong with it. He was a nice enough guy and explained things as he was going through it. It was a good exchange. And Kinetico is the best one I’ve had so far. When I first got it, it was eating salt like it was candy, and I changed the disk, and it helped a lot, but right now, there’s salt residue on the sidewalls of the tank.

    When my wife and I purchased our home, we weren’t really happy with the system that was in place. It was the original system from when the house was built. It was already about 30 years old, very outdated and had outlived its life. We wanted to make sure that we had a good functioning system and start off the new home on the right foot. The old system happened to be a Kinetico filter so we contacted the nearest dealer.

    They came in, removed the old system, disposed of all the old components, and installed the new one. My wife was home at the time and they gave her a rundown on the monthly maintenance for it. At one point, she had forgotten how to operate it for changing the filter, but I was able to call the installer. They have photographs of how our system was set up on file and they were able to walk me right through the process. And they have been very helpful any time they’ve been out here to service the system. The water from the well has a very high iron content. Towards the end of the life of the filter, we started to notice the hardness and some discoloration in the water. But after we put a new filter in, the water quality has been fine

    Our experience this time has been horrible, unit does not work, has not used up salt in months, it's a outside unit, no bottom on box, so fills up with Mudd, grant it they have come out, complain about our location, they show up a couple hours prior to sun going down, very frustrating. Had unit couple years and not worked, same excuses. Obviously I'm not happy, unit fully paid, seems like I've been taken advantage of, We just want it fixed, no excuses,

    I've had the Kinetico system for a year now. I know Jeremy, the salesperson or owner, and I trusted him on what he was telling me about the water. I had hard water and also, I wanted the reverse osmosis. I had one underneath here, a Whirlpool, and I had to keep changing the filters under the counter. So, everything's out in the garage now. The Kinetico installation went smoothly. I had a little problem with the water pressure. It wasn't good, so he put a pump on it. The system seems to be good now and I'm satisfied with it.

    We live in a rural area and the Kinetico system took care of the iron problem in our well. It doesn't take much service and all I have to do is add softener salt every week or so. Kinetico was a personal recommendation and we’ve been using it for probably over 20 years. It was malfunctioning a year ago and they looked at it. It had been in for so long and they replaced it so it’s a new system now.

    We've had two different houses with two different needs. We have our current house where we have town water. The issue is about the treatment of the water which was hard. When we built our second house, we called Kinetico because Jean had been so great with the other house. He made himself available to me, although not so much now because the water situation is different and it's more complicated. With the other house, it had all those larger issues. There were some emergency situations where I was talking to Jean in the middle of the night and he was helping. Part of the reason why when it came to this other house, we had him put the system in.

    We had well water which was exceptionally hard and it had sediment present in it. The biggest thing was that we had a low yield well which was less than a gallon a minute so we needed storage capacity. Jean put in a system called well manager and that helped us store water so that we could have it for our use. But we have to pull it from the well at a prescribed pace so that it never overtax the well.

    We're pleased with how our Kinetico system is working. When I got it, the local well water that was on is not really drinkable without this kind of set. It would soften the water. It also treated it with peroxide, and it was also a reverse osmosis. The local distributor who came and gave us an overview of the system was very informative and gave us lots of good information. He also demonstrated the change in water. We went and saw the reverse osmosis. If we needed to water the lawn, he showed us how to regenerate the salt, and then we saw the peroxide part of it. He explained all that in great detail to us in a very satisfactory way.

I wanted soft water for washing machines so I can clean with it and shower with it without getting lime all over the shower floor and the bathtub. We bought the Kinetico and we like it very much. I talked my parents into putting one in too. We have the reverse osmosis water system and they put the water softener here first, and after a year, I put in an RO system and they're both flawless. Now we don't have lime in our sinks and showers. Before, there was always lime and we had to take some vinegar or tomato juice and try to get it dissolved and scrub it down.

It’s waterproof.

    With the system, the water is really fresh. Usually, I can’t drink water unless it’s really ice-cold. But now, I can. I still want it chilly, but it ain’t got to be ice-cold. Also, when I bathe, the water feels to be a lot softer than before. My wife can tell a big difference and she loves it. I think she’d get rid of me before she would the water softener.

Our experience with Kinetico is much better than it was at one time. We haven't noticed any of the salt anymore. The rep might have found the problem. He was very good, attentive, and responsive. He explained to me what the issue was, but it took him a while to figure out what was going on too. It was something about the float and the water pressure.

    Whenever I've called, the rep has been very quick to get back with me. They are very customer service oriented and I'm very pleased with that. However, the system doesn't seem like it's taking care of the complete problem. I don't think there is a system available because we have silica in our water. We've talked about that and the rep's been back out for that as well, but in our other system, I don't think we had the additional steps to take to avoid what we're having now.

    We had just moved into this home and we live in a small town surrounded by agriculture. We're very concerned about runoff of chemicals into the water supply. I checked out a bunch of stuff online. Then we found out that our local Kinetico distributor which is Scharnweber has an office in Waterloo, Iowa. It is close to where we live, and it just so happens that the man who runs that branch lives in our town here which is terribly convenient. He is a marvelous fellow. We couldn't be happier with our representation by Scharnweber than we are with Alan. He has given us tremendous service over the years. We have not only a softener system but we have a water filtration system because of the worry about chemicals. We use exclusively the reverse osmosis water for cooking and drinking.

    Kinetico has been very easy to work with and I really couldn't think of anything they could do to improve the customer service interface because Alan is such a great guy. It's convenient for him to put us either last on his schedule so he's on his way home or first thing in the morning as he's going into work. And that's convenient for us, too. So we consider ourselves lucky.

    The system has worked pretty much flawlessly. We upgraded. We had the original water softener rebuilt about a year ago. And at the same time, we upgraded to the more modern model of reverse osmosis system. But he original equipment had lasted nearly 20 years so we were very pleased. We are big proponents of this system and the people in our area who represent the company.

    There’s an issue with iron here at the property and I had to have a filtration system to keep the pipes from corroding. I had a water filtration system in the house, but it was at the end of its life. I’ve been in the house for two years and had the local company come out three times for a little filter problem. They serviced the whole filtration system down in the basement. They’ve been out several times for that before the gentleman who came out to service it recommended that I replace it. He put in the same thing that was there already.

    I have the possibility of putting in another filter, but I wish that it was easier for me to access it. As somebody with limited mobility, it was hard for me. I really had to torque that thing. But I put some coconut oil on its screws so when I go to remove it, it’s easier. I like that it’s not an electric system so I don’t have to worry about it resetting itself if the power goes out, which happens here.

    40 years ago, we put in a Kinetico system when we bought our house. We kept that one in, and then we had some issues with it back in 2010. We called the dealer and they came out, put in some new parts and serviced it. Then a year ago we had an issue again and I said, "This thing has way outlasted its service life. Let's get a new one for the rest of our lives." We decided to buy a new one, and now we don't have to worry about it for as long as I live. I like the fact that as far as using electricity and using the timer with the water flow, it's efficient. If there's no flow, it doesn't increase the timer. It only recharges when you use it for a certain amount of water. The other ones are on a timer, so every day at 6 o'clock, it recharges whether you need it or not.

    One of the things that I don't like is a ring in the stool. The system doesn't totally eliminate it, but it's about 75% less. When we did have some problems, the timer broke and you could tell right away, the stool started getting rings in them. When you showered, your skin felt different, and you ended up with a lot more water spots. The tech guy came out with his little toolbox, a light and shorts, and he knelt down on the cement floor with his bare knees and pulled out his little toolbox. He completely disassembled the clock in five minutes or less. Took it apart, blew everything out and put it all back together. He said, "Something ain't quite right." He took it back apart again, kneeling on the floor with bare knees, put that thing back together and it worked fine. It turns out he's the guy that owns the place. He knows what he's talking about, and he proved it.

    I'm always into more local and keeping the local vendors through and through. I reached out to the local place in Charlton, Massachusetts and they did the water testing. Kinetico was the product that they used. We’ve had the Kinetico water system for a little over a year. It does what it does and our water is clean and clear. But the time it takes to fully backwash is absolutely insanely long. I was under the impression that the backwater system should be backwashing for three hours, an hour and a half for both systems, but it turns out that it was not. It was actually for each segment of the filtration.

    For me, to backwash three hours for one system and then three hours on another system wastes an astronomical amount of well water. I will also have to make the drywell bigger because of the amount of water that is backflowing. According to the person that did the installation, it’s based on the amount of usage it gets as opposed to every three days but it's clearly not the case. I go through about six bags every month just with myself and one other person using the water systems and with my children every other weekend. It's annoying that we are backwashing so much for what seems to be so little usage. Also if you don’t keep the salt in the brine, you tend to run the life expectancy of the filtration system down because of how often it backwashes.

    Our Kinetico system was in the house when we bought it and recently, we upgraded the drinking water. We were very familiar with our water before we moved here, so we wanted it for drinking as well as for our refrigerator for drinking and ice cubes. We also added some mineral back in and the softener is working fine. They need to come out and check the iron one, too. I called them to do that a long time ago, but we'll get it. Other than that, their reps were wonderful and very personable. They were always so clean, too. They thought they had to take their shoes off all the time and I told them that they didn’t have to in our house but they still did it. Plus, they were very well-educated, they knew what they were talking about, and they were quick.

    When my 35-year-old water softener went bad, the plumber I typically use offered Kinetico. It was easily available and I went with it. It’s the same system that I had before, but everything was new. The tub that you put the softener salt in is a little bigger and the pressure tanks are a little bit smaller but higher pressure. The filter housings accommodate two filters rather than one and the time in between changing the filters is a little longer. The filters get filled with rust because the lines underground are all steel.

    I live on a farm and have well water, which is hard. I wanted to take some of that out. The wife and daughter don’t like the hard water for their hair and the water spots on the dishes. Then there is a sink that has a slight rotten eggs smell without it being run through the softener system. The softer water is better on the faucet and the showerheads. The calcium buildup is also not as bad.

With Kinetico, there are no electronics involved, less could wrong with it and it's better quality water. The rep was really knowledgeable and gave me what I needed. He tested the water here and said that the water softener I have is good enough. So, he wasn't pushing this product on me as far as being able to get the sale. He was not unethical. I got the water filter and it's been really good. The filtered water is all I drink and cook with. I like the idea that they hooked it to the refrigerator so that the ice is filtered too. You can see the difference in the ice cubes. Before the filtration, the ice cube was salty and with the Kinetico water, the ice cube is clear.

    I've had experience with Kinetico for six years. I used them previously when I lived in a different house and then, we bought it last year. We have the water softener and the reverse osmosis. I didn't have the reverse osmosis before. I just got it in our house now. We were having hard water. Also, one of our friends always carries bottled water. She wouldn't drink any town water. So I thought, I would just go ahead and get that reverse osmosis, which actually turned out good because when we had flooding in the area this summer, the nitrate count was too high and you had to boil your water. But I didn't have to boil our water because it filters all of it. The reverse osmosis worked out great for us.

    I was just amazed. I thought, "Wow. I can't believe I spent the extra money and it was really worth it." And then, I didn't have to spend the extra money to buy water. The town also supplies water to people, and it was a pain in the butt because I'm the manager of the KCs and if you wash your dishes, you have to boil the water. It was an extra chore.

    It's all been great because otherwise, I would not have went back a second time. There was another water system in the area which was Culligan. I called them, left a message, never got a call back. I waited two weeks, I called again, never got a call back. The lady there said, "Well, I just take a message. If he doesn't call you..." That was not her fault. I understand. And I thought, I had money to spend. It was not like everyday somebody puts a water softener in. They never called me back. And I thought, if they can't even call me, just forget it. And with Culligan, you have to set a timer for it to soften the water or to run. With the Kinetico, you will have softened water 24/7, 365 days a year. You do not put on a timer. There are two bottles and when one bottle runs out, you start running on the other. Before you get to the bottom of that bottle, the other bottle is ready to go.

    When they came and talked to me about it the very first time, I knew nothing. I had some idea about a water softener, but I didn't have the full spectrum of it, and they were very explanatory in everything. I was just amazed at their system and that you didn't have to set it on a timer or anything like that which I thought really made sense because otherwise, you'd set it at 2:00 in the morning when you're not using it. They've been great. We have recommended Kinetico to our friends who live on a farm and they have very hard water.

Before I got Kinetico, my own water conditioner was not working for a long time, so I had extremely hard water.

    We had a concern with rust and a friend of ours recommended Kinetico. They had one and they really liked it. Also, it doesn’t run on power so I don’t need to have electricity to do it. When they installed the system, they showed me how to change filters out and get the rock salt in there. They also made sure that I knew what kind of rock salt to use. They were great to work with. They answered all my questions and if I had any concerns, they helped. I’ve had my Kinetico for over a year and everything is running great. We love it. I’m not having to buy special stuff to clean out the toilets and the shower to get the rust off the walls anymore. I can tell when the filter’s getting pretty full because we start getting a little bit of rust in the toilet. Once I change that out and clean the toilet, it goes away and stays away. I recommend buying one. They're worth every penny of it.

    I bought the unit almost 2 years ago. The unit was working good for the first 10 months with reading of 8,9,11,14. Then suddenly the meter went way over 50. They finally sent someone out and discovered the Membrane filter was bad. This is only 10 months out with a 4 year warranty on this filter. The meter reading since they were always in the high twenties, So we accepted that even though the city water supply was much lower than when we first had it installed. It was 535 originally with the low reading. After it was always in the mid to low 400's, Today the reading is 421. I just changed three filter. Purple, Orange and Silver.

    After the first tank rinse as they instruct the meter was 121. I rinsed the tank again it was 79, then again and it was still 72 after 3 flushes, the fourth tank gave me mixed reading 72, then 54, then 44, then 47, then 65 all from the same tank of water on the now 5th flush and emptying. The original water I had saved in emergency water 5 gallon tanks which I had next to the sink. So I measured the original and it was 8. That was from when I first bought the machine.

    When I called they want to charge me 121 service call fee, even though this is the same problem originating from the first problem of high TDS meter readings. So I declined the visit. There is really nothing you can do but and that's 2000$ wasted on a overrated system that makes false claims, and does not really stand behind their product. Oh yah for a price as indicated before. Since this was a problem ongoing from the first issue and the readings were consistently high for so long you would think they would do this as a courtesy followup from the first issues that are ongoing. Bottom line I would decline from buying this unit since it breaks down and their filters are obviously defective and not up to the high quality they claim. Be warned.

    I’ve had some problems with my Kinetico. At one point in time, a whole lot of salt was getting into the water and it tasted very salty. Someone came out and fixed that. I’m not sure if it’s totally fixed because once in a while, after it refreshes, there still seems to be salt in there. I also had a problem with a blockage. The salt gets slopped up at the bottom, and as a result, I was getting no soft water at all. And I called them on that, but nobody came out and I had to take some of the salt out that was in there and tried to get clear down at the bottom and see what was going on, and it was all caked in there. I’m not 100% happy with it.

    We are out in the boondocks here. And the house is about 20 years old, and what they had before was a system that was installed when the house was built, and it was getting to the point where I just wanted something newer and also something I wouldn’t have to mess around with so much. The installation of the Kinetico system was fine. There was some problems in there and the installer did a good job with that. Initially, everything worked fine but it wasn’t too long after it was in that I had this sense that there was a whole lot of salt in the water, and I’m not supposed to have salt. My dog actually wouldn’t drink the water. She turned her nose up at it. I had to go outside and get the water from the outside faucet which doesn’t go through the softener.

    I still, once in a while, take a drink if it tastes a little bit salty and the dog still seems leery of it at times. When a guy came out to fix it, he said some kind of a valve had not worked like it was supposed to and he put a new one in. But I still wonder at times if that valve was not shutting fully or what because it still tastes salty at times.

    We love Kinetico. It uses a heck of a lot of salt because our water is really crappy. I wanted to get back with them to see if I can dial it down a little bit, but I'm afraid, if we do, the water won't be as good, but still thumbs up for them. I've had previous water softeners -- Culligan, Morton and kept hearing about how Kinetico was pretty good. It makes well water well. That’s their jingle. And we have a pretty bad well water out here, so I thought I'd give them a try, and I'm glad I did.

    I had a couple of floods I dealt with this year, and I have an RO system. Before we were gonna use the RO system again I wanted to change my filters because I shocked the well, and it was on a Saturday, and either the manager or the technician at that time took time out of his day to meet me at the shop and provided me with all the filters I needed. He recommended a few to filter out bacteria, E. coli, and stuff like that, which was great. So he provided a great service for me because we just moved in that week, and then went out of his way to make sure we got what we needed.

    If they could lower the prices it would be great, but you gotta pay for quality, and I understand that. My folks actually lived in this house when I was growing up, and we didn’t go with an RO system. We just had a plain Jane water softener, but the water was certainly sorta soft, but there was still iron rings in the toilet. Now, the water is so clear. You're not seeing any stains in the toilets. The boys says, “Well, we can drink that water.” I told them not to use the RO water, but it's just like night and day from the other water softener we experienced here at this house.

We moved in April and paid to have it swapped over here. The installation went really smoothly. When we moved, I called to get everything set up, and the lady said there would be a $100 charge to have it moved. I had no problem with that. But when we moved, they ended up sending me a $468 bill, and the lady said that the $100 was the fee to move but we had to pay for parts.

After about six months of living in my house, I removed the original water softener and put a Kinetico in, which has been about a full year now and I've been real happy with it. The water quality has been more consistently better. With the old water softener, there were times when it was allowing stuff to get pass it. But Kinetico softener has not have that happen yet.

    The only issue I have with Kinetico is that their dealerships are not close enough. There are too few and too far between. They have to travel nearly an hour to an hour and a half to get to my place if I need service. And I would prefer to buy some Kinetico salt that came with my softener, but it's not feasible to drive an hour and a half to buy water softener salt.

    My water was lining up my glasses so I got a water softener from Kinetico. I got online and it looked like they were one of the best ones. So that was what I went with. The guy who set it up was here on time, was very nice and showed me when he connected it to my waterlines and stuff in the basement, which knobs to turn and what to do to shut it off so that I could put a new filter in.

    The lady in the office was real nice to me too. I had to go down and get another bag of pellets. She even lifted it in my trunk of my car for me. Since having the system my water has been a lot better. I don't have all the lining up of things anymore, that was my main factor. I don't like drinking tap water so I get mine through my refrigerator and the water goes through the softener downstairs and it works out great. I'm very satisfied and if anybody would ask me I'd recommend the Kinetico to them.

    We built two brand-new houses, and we put them in from the get-go in both properties. We had a Kinetico system in Iowa City, and now we have a Kinetico system in Ankeny. I told the builder we wanted to put another Kinetico system in and he set them up with the local vendor here in our area. Everything went smooth and perfect. It’s been a good system for us. It’s low-maintenance and we like their drinking system downstairs.

They're pretty immovable, meaning, they're doing their thing. That's probably what they want, but they could be a little more customer service-friendly.

    We had hard water in the area and my son had eczema. We then had the RO filter that was the beefier one with chlorine removal feature on it for water softener. The system did not make the eczema completely go away but it definitely helped a lot with going to soft water. The installation was great. We noticed a major difference in the water pressure, however, and so we had to have them come out to adjust the water pressure. They increased the pressure from the house, and that helped a ton. The RO is great. But, in comparison to the water softener we have in the house that we have now, I am not sure how effective the Kinetico water softener was, if it was better than their standard electric water softener. It could be that I have grown grown accustomed to the feel of the soft water. But definitely, customer service has been excellent.

    We needed a water system. We got rust and a lot of iron in the water. Our Kinetico softener doesn’t really get it all either, but it’s doing a better job than the one I had before. I wish I could get a system that really worked, but I had never found one yet. I’d like Kinetico to get the rust out. There was a way to get it. The guy that put it in seemed to know what he was doing, but it’s still there. I’m still dealing with rust and I had to put chlorine in there to keep it from smelling. I’d like to be able to solve that problem. I use a way lot less salt with Kinetico, but it still hasn’t solved the rust problem. It was an improvement, but it’s not 100%.

    The customer service at Kinetico was excellent. They came out and answered the questions. I had looked at one other system and as I pointed on this to where I wanted it, right off the bat they said, "Well, that'll cost you extra, and it'll be this and this and this." And when I brought up that same situation with the Kinetico rep, he said, "Let's go ahead and see what you're really talking about, and let's see what it is that you really want." And on that basis there, they said, "Yes, we can do it. There's no extra cost." So, the way they approached it, the people that came out here were very knowledgeable. And it was not a sales job, it was more of a matter of very nice questions, answers, and the product.

    The installation was excellent. The installers were here when they said they were going to be. It took them less time than they thought that it might, and everything has worked out very well all the way through. In fact, we've liked so much that there was a lady that lives about a block and a half away from us, and she came to me and she said, "How did you like it? And do you think they can do it the way that I want it?" I told her Kinetico can. She had three other companies come out and she wound up buying a system from Kinetico too.

    We used to be more itchy, in the wintertime especially. It bothered my wife more than it did me. We felt kind of dry in certain areas of our body, and we never had that as a situation since we've had our Kinetico. In fact, we went away on a trip and when we got back, I had forgotten all about making sure that I had plenty of salt pellets in the Kinetico. And so, we were home for about five weeks and Patsy was saying something was wrong. She said, "I'm beginning to feel like I did before we had the new system put in. Are you sure you're doing things right?" I went downstairs, and sure enough, there wasn't a pebble or a little salt piece in there. And so, I came up and I added a bag of it. So, it was noticeable when we ran out of salt.

    In some ways, Kinetico is more expensive. There's an ad on TV now and it says, "Always get other estimates, but always make sure that ours is one of the three, and I'm sure that you'll agree that ours is the best." Until people shop around, they don't realize the difference. And I wouldn't be at all surprised if they got in touch with Kinetico the very first, they would get a lot of information, but at the same time, they may not really realize the advantages of some of the things that they are talking about. We have told our neighbors about Kinetico. Some of the neighbors can afford it, but other neighbors had already installed and they had their own system.

    I’ve known about Kinetico for years. We just built a new home and we needed a system. And so, I got a hold of Kinetico and ended up buying one of their systems. Their customer service reps were superstars. I got the system installed, and the sale was pleasant and wasn’t pushy. I ended up buying a couple extra things to make sure I had a complete system. And so, the whole experience was great.

    The installation was super easy because half of my basement was not finished. The walls were just started down there. They ran the plumbing without a finished ceiling, so it didn’t take much at all. They held their schedule when they said they were gonna be there. They were done within the timeframe they said they’d be done. Everything was great. The system is doing a really great job in terms of the water being soft and what was promised. It doesn’t use a lot of salt, so it’s been low maintenance. It exceeded our expectations.

    We have lived in Lehi previously. We had a different water softener system in that home. It was an older system, and we went through a lot of salts. So then, one of the biggest differences since having our Kinetico is there isn’t much salt. And I know the water is soft by the way it feels in the shower. Also, we can only put in about half as much laundry detergent in our batches of laundry. If we put in a full normal amount like we always used to, we get so many suds in there that you almost can’t get the suds out. So, we’re using half as much laundry detergent on every batch of clothes that we washed.

    We looked for water systems on the internet. Kinetico was the strongest and closest, and we purchased their water filtration system, the reverse osmosis for drinking water. I have a large home and the water pressure that's at my house is insufficient, so I asked for booster pump. To date, I'm still dealing with them on that. I'm not happy with their service. They're not very good. I have a home up north, so I'm not here all the time. I'm still trying to deal with them from the distance and setting up appointments, and getting the same service person hasn't been easy. They send out different person every time. It seems like they have never installed a booster pump before. It ended up failing a couple of months ago, with water pouring everywhere. They sent somebody over with the pump, but it was not installed before while I wasn't here.

    A month ago, I told them, "The door was unlocked, go in and put the pump in." It was very simple, but somehow, the service person left without installing it. And then I got another call a week ago saying, "We have your pump. Do you mind if we come over to install it?" I said, "I'm not there. I told you to install it last time you were here." And the service person said, "Well, that wasn't me, that was somebody else." So, the pump's still not installed when it only takes five minutes to install it. I'm here in Florida right now, but when I'm here more, I'll call them again and see if I can get this taken care of. They're not that difficult to set up an appointment with, it's just that it's long-distance and it's such a pain.

    In my home up north, I decided to put the same exact water purifier in, and the people up there in Western New York showed right up, installed the thing in an afternoon. They were very professional and made the installation very simple. The price was almost half the price of the company here in Florida, but I find that to be true with almost everything in Florida compared to where I am in New York. I like Kinetico.

And he was talking about the grains of hardness that we had in our water and then he talked to me about what the new system would provide us. He was great. The techs that came in to install the system wore booties so they did not tracked any dirt through my house. They were professional. They showed up on time. They cleaned up their mess when they removed the old system. And they installed the new one, and it’s been great. It’s been working ever since, and I haven't had any issues.

    The water was tested initially before we moved into the house. It was a little hard so we wanted to make sure it was not like that at all. We bought a Kinetico PS 1054 pump from a water filtration company here. I told them once to come to test but they never came. The product's pretty good, otherwise.

    I like to have filtered drinking water. I’ve had reverse osmosis filters before and I think it’s similar to Kinetico. They removed a lot of bad stuff which is good. The vendor that I use from the water filtration company comes when things needed replacement like filters. Overall, I’m very satisfied.

    We have a well and we had an issue with hardness in our water. When we were at the Dutchess County Fair, a company called Water Source had a booth set up. We started engaging them in conversation about the hard water, and he led me from there. The company that we dealt with was very good and their reps were knowledgeable and trustworthy. They were very accommodating and very informative too, and they weren't pushy at all. The man came out and tested our drinking water, and we decided to go with the Kinetco water filtration system for all of our water. We have a faucet in our sink and it also connects to our water and ice maker for our refrigerator. The installation team was fine. We showed them where the basement was and what needed to be hooked up. We used to buy bottled water all the time and now we don't. All of our drinking and cooking water is now filtered, as well as our ice cubes, laundry and showers.

    There was a Culligan inside the house. And the Culligan person came and they gave me a really bad deal. So, I went and researched which system was the best, and it came out that the Kinetico was the best one. The company that came and installed it did a water test before. The installation was good. They came and installed it within two hours. Kinetico had a really good warranty and something about the ease of maintenance. There's no electricity usage. Basically, you set it and forget it kinda. I got the system as a continuation of having soft water.

    Our water in the area that we're in is very hard. The hardness level is high and it's highly chlorinated. I was buying bottled water and cooking with it and drinking it. And I would never shower here in the house, there was a second home at the time. I felt so strongly about putting in a water treatment system. I was doing some research online and saw that Kinetico is working with the system that has no electrical components, the way that it works. That and with testimonials, I thought it was very high in product. It was a little pricey compared to some of the other products out there but I felt like it was a good long-term investment and we could buy it outright without any problem.

    The experience with Kinetico was good all the way around. The only thing that I was surprised about was working with a PEX plastic tubing instead of what I thought would be copper, even though it said PEX, I didn't know what it was at the time. But I just had the annual system tune-up and changed their cartridges on my RO system and it's all good. The water source is a really good company. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Kinetico products.

    Going back years, we had a Culligan system and between the pipes rattling and the timer and everything else, we didn't like the system. So I talked to one of my friends in the biology department at school whose husband is a contractor and big builder and she said that he only uses Kinetico in his homes. We tried it and we have been satisfied ever since. We had them many years ago at a home on First Avenue up until the time we lost it in the flood.

    When we came to our present home, they didn't have any water system at all. The contractor put a double filter system in, which wasn't good. It wasn't anywhere near as good as Kinetico was on the first day. We called someone who came and tested the water and installed our present Kinetico system. We had a part that had to be replaced. We called and within a day or two, they came and took care of whatever was needed. It was very easy to get them out. Also, the people at the office are very helpful in any way possible.

    We're health-conscious. So, we worry about additives and the PH of the water and about impurities in the water system and the drinking water. So, we're in tune with the issues of trying to get the most healthful environment that we can get. I have a relative who has a Kinetico system in her house. Setting up our appointment with Kinetico was ideal. They came and tested the water before they put in the system. We got a filtration system and since then, the drinking water tastes different, tastes better, and we're comfortable with it because we assume that all the other good stuff is happening too. I just wish I knew somebody out in rural Pennsylvania, where my summerhouse is, who handled the Kinetico system.

    I bought a home, and a Kinetico system was already installed here. They've updated the system. They serviced the system, and they added an additional water filter system at the sink. Before, our water was really not drinkable and now, it is. There were no issues setting up appointments with Kinetico. They sent someone out pretty much right away. The only thing is that they offered to deliver bags of salt to you without informing you that their markup on the salt is like 400%, which I figured out the hard way. They should be transparent about what the markup is on the salt. Kinetico is not cheap, but for us, we're on well water, we have to have a system like this, and they seem to be good providers, too.

    When we moved into the house, it had an older system and it was leaking and should have been replaced before we bought the house. And so, we called the people that had put the prior system in and they suggested Kinetico. We had one issue, but they came out for it. In one of the two tanks, the top piece wasn't something that they put together. It sprung a leak sometime in the last four months. They came out and swapped it out, and it's been fine since then. They said it felt like it was a manufacturing defect, but they had never seen that happen before. So, they were gonna reach out to Kinetico and deal with that, so we didn't have to have any kind of interaction. Also, because of the softener, there's so much salt in the water and we don't normally drink it. We are gonna have to get them to deal with some of that salt. Everything else has been perfectly fine.

    I have been a long time leasee of their water softener. Roughly 6 months ago their system failed and over a period of time caused substantial damage to my home. My built in refrigerator failed, my plumbing completely clogged to the point that the water ran at a trickle, my water usage increased dynamically. I had to hire a professional to search for leaks. When I finally figured out it was the water softener I contacted them. Their first reaction was that I had not paid the bill for the lease which was incorrect. I had to fight with them to service the water softener. It took several visits to get my water functioning properly and my pool cleared out. I found out that they were supposed to service the water softener yearly but I can't remember anyone coming over the past years. They also agreed to compensated my for my losses. To be frank they have been avoiding me. Don't use them.

    We had bad chlorine smell in the water, and a buddy of mine had Kinetico so we called them up. They set it up and the guy showed up the next day. He explained the way other systems work and it was a no-brainer. We trusted them and it made sense. The whole process was simple and easy. Also, the installers were very professional. They were in and out right after lunch. We were very happy with it. Now the chlorine is gone and the showers are beautiful. The coffee tastes incredible. The laundry’s awesome.

    I used to have a water softener but it quit on me. Then, I had the water tested and the guy said I really didn’t need a water softener. However, after a while, I saw a little buildup in the showers and so on, so I figured it would be better to have it. My water’s very good except it’s hard, so I decided to buy a new one. I was in Home Depot and they had these cups sitting there for water softeners. I sent it in and somebody tested my water.

    The rep from Kinetico was very friendly and he knows what he’s talking about. He gave me the water test and he told me the water grade but it’s hard, so it would be better to have the water softener. And I could see it, so we did it. Then, somebody came and installed it. All I do now is buy salt. And the hardness is kind of gone. Everything seems to be working just fine. I know the water is better and that’s good enough for me. As far as water softeners are concerned, I’m very satisfied with Kinetico. The system hasn’t broken down and I don’t see other problems.

    I wanted clean water in my house. Setting up an appointment with Kinetico was perfect. I took advantage of their free water test, and I thought that that was was kind of weak. The rep came in and dipped the stick in my water. There's a lot of chlorine, and I was hoping for something a little bit more robust. There wasn't anything like metals or what was actually in the water. I thought they were gonna take something and run it in a lab, but it was none of that. Other than that, the installation guy was super nice and very knowledgeable.

    I was doing some research online on water softeners and came across Kinetico. We got the whole-house water softener because we had hard water with high iron content. I like the reduced amount of salt that was used compared to other systems. I also like that there's no electric required to run it, and the pretty much maintenance-free hands-off usage of it. Everything has been operating as advertised. I’m very happy thus far with the system and the water quality. It’s been a good purchase.
