    A RainSoft rep came for a consultation regarding our water and it lasted for 8 hours. I wasn't planning on buying their system but when he tested the water, it was disgusting. What intrigued us about RainSoft was that we got the double amount of product for $6,000. The rep was saying how much we could save. My daughter googled to really see each of the product and the prices of other systems since we didn't want to be screwed. We went back and forth with the salesman. We told him we wanted to sleep on it before we decide. The next morning when my daughter and I got up, we both had agreed to go for it.

    The salesman said that the installers were going to cut a hole in my granite to put part of the system underneath the sink. A young kid and a supervisor came for the installation. They said something about running a line to the refrigerator which got me confused but made me think that they didn't have to cut into the granite at the sink but I'd still have clean water throughout the house. The supervisor left without saying goodbye and it was just the young kid doing the installation. When I called the salesman and he questioned me about where the team installed the system, I told him about my confusion. However, he said that with the type of system installed, I'd only have clean water coming out of the refrigerator, not the sink.

    I realized then that a mistake has been made, but then the salesman called somebody and had another installer come out to fix it. The next installer came - an older gentleman who seemed very knowledgeable. He was looking for a part needed to install the system in the sink. I told him that nothing was left with me but luckily, he had that part in the truck. I would not have been happy had he needed to make another appointment. The system is now installed but nevertheless, the first installers should have made me understand that I'd only be getting clean water out of the refrigerator, not the sink, with how they first installed the system. I think they were bypassing some extra work.

    The salesman said that with the system installed, we don't have to use lotion as much. Not true - my skin is just as itchy and very disgustingly flaky. He also said that we will not see rain spots on the faucet and the handles but I'm still cleaning the faucets like normal. It's also not true that I wouldn't get spots when washing my car and I don't need to wipe the water off it. In truth, when the car dries, I couldn't even see out of my windows.

    We were supposed to meet the salesman about a week ago for re-testing but he hasn't come back yet. I don't know if this system is worth six grand and there's no way I'm gonna tell anybody that I paid that much. There's nothing I can visually see to be able to tell people to buy the RainSoft system. Still, it's easier and cleaner to drink out of the faucet with the system rather than keep buying filters - the water tastes better. Moreover, I wish the system wasn't so expensive.

    One of the times we went to Home Depot, we got a test little thing to check the water. We live in the country so we have a well and we wanted to know the situation. I was a little suspicious about the validity of the test done. We were shown many things and that we had high acidity. So just to be on the safe side, we got a little test kit and it worked like RainSoft said.

    Now we are using the system and have noticed a huge difference. When your water has high acidity, after you take a shower your skin feels dry. Now it feels like we still have some soap, which is the natural oils that people have. They don't get washed away, so it makes a difference. The water also tastes much better for drinking. The RainSoft people were very professional and did a good job.

    Our water was so hard. The RainSoft sales rep that came out, Edmund, was great. He knows his product inside and out. He did all the demonstrations and answered any question that we had. The installation team came the next day. Since then, our skin feels so much softer and my dishes are cleaner. We got all the products, dishwasher, dish soap, and oatmeal bars which I love. They're just so soft on your skin. I don't have to use half as much laundry detergent and they gave me enough for at least a year, which is a big savings.

    The RainSoft rep that sold us the system did a great job. I talked with the installation team and found out quite a bit about the unit. They showed us the installation and it was good. The guy did everything we asked him to do. There were some areas in our particular kitchen where he had initially indicated it would be tough to do what we wanted, but he found a way to accomplish it and so we’re happy. The water here in our area is hard enough to walk on, and it has gotten a lot better and works like regular water now. We’re totally satisfied with the service, the installation, the additional free salt we got, the Pure and Soft, and the soap package. We're gonna make a couple of changes though since my wife doesn’t like the fragrances, but other than that, it’s been a great experience. I’ve already recommended Rainsoft to neighbors.

    When we moved in, we received a mailer from Home Depot about a gift card that we would be eligible for. We filled out their little mailer and sent it back, and when they called, they said they wanted someone to come out and test the water. We hadn't had any issues with the water, but I wanted to know what quality of water I was drinking and we were really surprised. The RainSoft sales rep was great. My daughter was really needy that night and he was understanding, not at all bothered by the fact that my daughter was playing such a role, and very professional.

    We had to have our granite countertop cut, so RainSoft sent two people out and they were incredibly professional. I was a little concerned because I don't know anything about cutting granite, so I wasn't sure what that was going to require or whether or not it was going to be still pretty afterwards. They did a great job on it. The gentleman who installed the device downstairs noticed something on the original inspection that wasn't pointed to us, and he was able to point that out and point us in the right direction for something that attaches to the water line that we're going to have to fix. We wouldn't have known otherwise, so he was super helpful and went above and beyond. We have a sense of relief knowing that we're drinking cleaner water. I feel healthier.

    I like our RainSoft system because I don’t have to buy bottled water anymore. I drink right out of the faucet now. I sat and listened to the sales rep, watched him test our water. He even tested my bottle of Zephyrhills water, and the filtered water came out better-looking than the Zephyrhills water did when he tested it. Our tap water definitely tastes better now. The house unit is perfect, but with the little units that they gave us, the guys that delivered them don’t know how to hook them up or install them. They didn’t tell us to take the plastic off the filter. They didn’t tell us a certain way to put it in there. There were no instructions in the box on how to do it. So one was broken, and they delivered another one, and we got that one working. They need to know how to work the little ones that they give away.

    I've had Rainsoft previously when we're in Arizona because Tucson's got terrible water and we couldn't live with the water any longer. And now we also have it at our house in Indiana. It wasn't a hard sell because it was all related to price and because we'd had it before. We had been through the whole thing. The installation guy that did the outside work did wonderful work on copper, which we don't see much anymore. They did a good job. They were in and out real quick, didn't leave a mess, and didn't break anything -- a lot of it in better shape than when they came in. The quality of the water is so much different. We can drink water now out of the tap and we use less soap in the shower. It's a matter of if people can afford it or not because the system's expensive. We didn't really have the money to do it, but we just got so tired of everything being related to our water and went out of our way.

    Our water is stinking and it was making our clothes yucky. Now that we have RainSoft, everything’s clean, like the dishwasher, the faucets, the toilets and our clothes. Also, everything’s softer. I can brush my teeth without gagging though we’re still getting some of the stuff but not like before. The sales rep who came was fine. We asked a lot of questions and he was able to provide all the information. The first installer who came out hooked everything up and another guy, an electrician, had to come out. They were both very good but a piece had broke after we had the system in. The water started stinking. My husband doesn’t smell it but I do. So we called and their staff came out right away and fixed it. Overall, we really like RainSoft.

    With RainSoft, the water tastes better. I feel better about drinking a lot of water, and in fact, everybody wants to use my water. The sales rep from RainSoft was sincere, informative, patient, and it was extremely fun interacting with him. However, the installers did the reverse osmosis under the sink and they lashed it around my sprayer hose. They installed the system to where the sprayer is locked under their hoses, and I can’t use the sprayer anymore. Other than that, the whole experience was great, and I'm very satisfied.

    Initially, when RainSoft's sales rep from came out here for consultation, I was a little put off in the expectation because it was a direct engagement and I didn't know what to expect. He dove right into it without explaining. But it worked out to be good. He was knowledgeable and answered all my questions. And when the installation team came out, they didn't know what to do, so they had to come back and they still didn't do it right. I have an older property and they probably aren't familiar with it.

    Fortunately, I had a plumber tell me until I had them back out the third time to fix some of the installation, the way they strap the pipes and the way insulated them. But since installing the system, I noticed we got softer water and all usage from washing to soap and through clothes and different things, getting it maybe a little bit help. I got a good dishwasher but it might have improved that slightly. All in all, RainSoft has a good quality softener and they have a good way to maintain it. They follow up and they do what they say, whether it takes a couple of times or not.

    RainSoft dropped mails off our door so I called to ask what it was. They came and did their test of the water, and we eventually purchased one of their treatments. Their installation team came the next week and told me the best way to hook it up, and they did it one night. It's been all good so far. Our water tastes better and it works better for our showers too. We have a daughter with cancer, so we like the fact that we're using treated water now.

    RainSoft is a real good system. It's doing a great job. Our water is better than it ever has been, but it's extremely expensive. The startup cost is $5,000. And pot perm is $50 for the little container that I have to put in there about every month and a half (they told me it would last three months). I talked to one of the gentlemen who put it in and he said, "Well, maybe you're using a lot more water than we thought you would." There's only two of us in the family though. So if I'm spending another $50 every two or three months, that adds up to a lot of money at the end of the year. I would eventually get to a point where I won't know if I'm going to be able to afford to keep putting pot perm in or not. I told people about Rainsoft and how much it's costing me and they're trying to decide if they can afford it.

    I was shopping down at Home Depot and a lady came up and asked me about my water. I live in Sierra Madre and the water here used to be great. It's from wells. But since the drought, I ended up with brown water. I told that to the lady then somebody called and asked me if I was interested in having clean water. RainSoft came out and I got their water filters plus the thing for the washing machine that goes under the sink and holds water. The sales guy did a great job and convinced me that I was buying a good product and that I needed the product. We charged it up to the Home Depot credit card, no interest for a year, so the purchase worked out great.

    The installation team did a great job as well. They came up with the greatest place to put the unit. Installation went very smoothly, and I was very pleased. The only problem is that the pressure seems to be a little low. I had to have a regulator because the pressure was like 90 psi, but now I haven't measured what the pressure is. The other thing is that one of the hose bibbs is on the soft water system, not the water from the street. It probably needs to get changed. I don’t want to use all my soft water watering my plants. The guy mentioned some line going out that way, but he didn't realize what it was and I didn't realize what it was myself, so not their fault.

    Except for spending money, the whole experience was great. My wife likes the dishwasher stuff. We were having a little trouble with the glasses not turning out very bright, but this stuff seems to clean very well so we're happy with it.

Also, the saleslady here in Toronto was trying to convince me about RainSoft's reverse osmosis but I felt it was too expensive. But for the past couple of years, I've spent the money on the bottled water, so I decided to switch, and I’m very happy with the taste of the water now.

    As for the installation, it was fast and very efficient. The gentleman who installed it had everything ready for him and handled everything. He explained to me how it works. So if the filters needed to be changed, I'm planning to get the filters from their office and change it myself instead of calling a technician. The only thing that can be improved in the customer service of this company is if the saleslady had sent me a bottle of this water three years ago, maybe I would have bought it earlier.

The fellow that came around and did the testing and went on around was fine. I have a concern about the sun on it in the latter part of the afternoon, though. I wasn’t apprised of the fact that sun might be detrimental to the system, however, there’s no way I can block it out there. Other than that, I would definitely recommend them.

    I recently paid the Rainsoft dealer double what I think I should have to move my water system to a new home. I paid huge cost because I trusted them. However after they left I noticed that the system was hooked up directly to the hot water lines and connected directly to my hot water heater. Every time I called them I was assured it was connected correctly until I sent them pictures. Still it has not been resolved. I guess they thought I would not notice that only my hot water was being filtered. I was given a receipt but there was no order number on it, so I cannot provide you with an order number.

    I had been interested in getting a soft water for a long time and RainSoft sent me a card when we moved here in December, which we thought it had to do with a welcome wagon because we were just new. But when it turned out that's what it was, we had them come out and see it. Setting up our consultation was easy and the seller came out and did the whole chemical presentation which he handled very well and kept it interesting. He gave us a wonderful price to do all three systems, but since we just moved, we couldn't do that. So it wasn't until the following months that I decided we should put in the basic soft water system and see how we liked it. Then they came back and took care of that and it was handled very well.

    Since having the system installed, I'm crazy about it. We don't have to use as much soap and it's better for the plumbing because we don't see rings around things, and the laundry detergent that I'm using does keep the clothes much softer and nicer. Also, I do like the dishwashing detergent and what we use in the sink to wash dishes with my hands because it cuts the grease really well, and my skin doesn't itch much and hair is nice and soft.

    Our water softener with RainSoft was 20 years old and it had broken so we contacted them. Working with their sales rep was terrific and they got back to us right away as soon as we approached them. They first sent somebody out to try and repair our old water softener but they were not able to fix it. Then when we asked about replacing it with something else, they turned around right away and were very helpful. We replaced it with a carbon-based water filter system for the whole house and a reverse osmosis system for the kitchen. They did a very professional install. We used to have the filter system underneath the kitchen cupboard, which cost us storage space, and when they installed the new one in the basement, we gained all that cupboard space back. The water quality is great and we're very happy with both systems.

    I bought a property and RainSoft Water System had been installed there. The water there was negative for bacteria, but when I was cleaning since I was moving in, the water smelled. It wreaked like sulfur, like a rotten egg, and it was not a pleasant thing. So, I went to the garage to see what the treatment system was and then I called RainSoft and they came out to look at it. The first people who came out diligently tried to get the system to work because I think they felt bad for me. They were very nice, and really went out of their way to try to help me and they didn't do a hard-pressed sell. They really wanted to get that system to work so that I could have clean water but to no avail. And what had been there had been ignored for years and no longer working, which was no fault of the system itself. So a decision was made for me to purchase a new one to go in place of the one that was no longer functioning.

    The Rainsoft team came out when they said they were coming out and they replaced and hauled the old system off. They had some issues with being a little delayed, but they called, and the communication between them and their office has been really good. Their service people were very nice and polite. They walked me through how to take care of my system and were not patronizing at all. They were very helpful and knew what their product was. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I would recommend them to anybody.

    We had really bad water. The sales reps from RainSoft accommodated our schedule in setting up our consultation. We rescheduled a couple of days prior because of family issues. When they came, they knew what they were talking about. However, the lack in information on the financing program was not necessary. The payment schedule was correct, but the overall dollars and the time frame to pay it off that was discussed was not remotely closed, which was just sad. They give a good deal for the first year and then you can transfer it. Basically, you’re transferring or rolling over unsecured debt

    We got the water treatment deluxe system. The installers ruined my water heater because they didn’t turn the power off. So when I turned it back on, it was spraying water all over in my basement. They did not want to admit fault on it. We went a whole day without hot water and we had a mess to clean up. But in the end, they agreed to replace the water heater and get it installed. They paid for all of it.

    The system works. The overall product is legit. The warranty is above and beyond compared to other products from other wholesalers in the area. The deal with the soap and how I'm going to save all these money because I'm getting them for free, I really want to know what it would cost if I were to get the system without buying the soap.

Their sales representative was exceptional and their installer was very on time, efficient, knew what he was doing, and was better than what we would have expected with anybody else.

    I had the EC5 system installed model 75 which wasn't taking out the amount of chlorine in our water so a service tech came out and added carbon to the system which helped but not enough. So this system was not accomplishing what I wanted the in the first place which was for soft water with no chlorine and spot free water for my vehicles. So, we then went to the EC5 model 100 with a carbon filter. The tech showed up on time (note this is the 3rd time) he had to redo the plumbing. Twice during this install he had water gushing all over my garage and soaked everything, one of those times he had manually set the unit to backwash and didn't have the hose hooked up and water went everywhere. The other time he was disconnecting the resin unit and the pressure let loose all over my garage.

    Nice guy but he was pretty new and struggled to get this system up and running. So after running water for nearly thirty minutes my water still wasn't soft so he disconnected the resin tank and added more. Now after all this my water now smells like dead fish which is what the resin smells like and it's awful. In the meantime I have them go out to my mother's house and install an EC5 system as well. Prior to that Nils the man that I've been dealing with has called me a liar told me I was ripping them off because they hadn't received payment yet. Was rude and disrespectful to me. Then once they knew I had my mother buying a system they acted nice again.

    In the meantime my system now smells like dead fish and I haven't been able to test the water to see if it's spot free since it's been raining. I see all these great reviews about RainSoft online. It kind of makes me wonder if RainSoft themselves don't write a lot of these. So unhappy with no help in sight!

I questioned their rep about that when he was here and he said to just run the water out of the supply tank, do it multiple times, and then see if that makes any difference on the water taste. It hasn’t. He said he would either have to come back and sanitize or possibly replace the filter. It could take a week and it might be better, but I need them to get this problem fixed. If they do, that’d be great. I had to have them out twice to replace the CleanStart, too, but nonetheless, our experience with them as a whole has been pretty good.

In the end, we still went with RainSoft and glad we went with them.

They took the time to work with me on the placement of the system and made a better recommendation than what I thought I wanted. They did everything that we needed, and the training at the end was good. They have good orientation on the system. Of course, by the time I need to do anything with the system, I'll have to reread books because it will be months down the line. I won't remember all that stuff.

    The company reached out to me & has since resolved the issue. I believe a lack of communication led to my feeling ignored & bitter feeling about them, but they have worked diligently at taking care of this for me & therefore I have to change my review & rate them much better than before.

    Original Review: March 7, 2016

    I have had the same timer & motor repaired several times. The last time the dealer who fixed it said the only way to fix permanently is to upgrade to a new version with digital timer. Basically, the company is more concerned with their profits & protecting the profits of their dealers. ** at corporate said before she could commit to sending an upgrade kit, she has to check with dealer as they have to be sensitive to his profits. The company knows the timers & timer motors were defective as they were replaced all the time, but refuses to do right thing.

    They have started to ignore me & have not responded to me at all recently. They say they do not have any recent service records for me, but that is not my fault as it has been repaired several times. The same timer piece has been repaired many times & it has not been as long as they are claiming. Regardless, the fact that it has to keep being repaired shows the fault in their design.

    Also, they have dealer "areas" that limit competition so only a RainSoft dealer in your area can work on your unit, thereby driving up prices for repair as they hold monopoly on competition. I am still open to working with them, but over the last 2 weeks I have gone nowhere with them as they have been stalling trying to worry only about money. Florida Energy, Water & Air is the local RainSoft dealer protected in my area that ** at corporate RainSoft is worried about their profits & the dealers profits.

    The consultation I had with RainSoft was very informative and interesting, I had no idea how heavy my water was. I ended up buying their water conditioning system for my whole house. The only thing is, there was not a lot of communication between the installer and the salesperson. The salesperson said the system will probably be put outside in a hole by my pool equipment but the installation guy said that it's better to put it in my garage. I would've been able to think about where I wanted it placed in the garage. Their sales people could get knowledgeable in where the water and the lines come in so they can give the homeowner an idea of what would be best. But, the water taste good and definitely softer since having the system. Water's not staining the granite around my kitchen sink which is really nice. I just wish I had researched about maintaining the system, I didn't take into account that there were other options.

    There was a RainSoft system already in here and we liked it because it's purifying the water. It was an old system and it wasn't working well, so we talked to them, they came out and made us a deal on the new system. The sales rep did a very explanatory demonstration on it. The installers were also very courteous and friendly. We got the UV light and the top-of-the-line system that you can look and see it's connected to my phone. The only thing I've ever noticed is every now and then, there's a little coat of white on the bottom. And I didn't know if that was coming through the system. I can take a cloth and wipe it out of the bottom and it's gone, but I'm not sure what it is.

    We heard about them back in 2000 and we put our first system in back then when the house was new. The rep was able to explain everything in good detail. We knew what we were getting into when we got it. He's been coming to our house doing most of the repairs and maintenance on it for the last 15 years. So it was like having a family member come over. He's very informative, congenial, and always takes time to go through stuff with us. I always set up my schedule around his schedule to make sure that he is the one that comes, because we like him so well. Everything that RainSoft has ever done for us has been necessary and we appreciate that kind of interaction as well.

    The water quality was really bad to start with and when we put the new system in, it turned it around immediately. It was fantastic. With the new system, we are not using anywhere near the amount of salt that we used to use which is a definite plus for us. It reduced the cost of it, overall and continues to be great quality water and we're very happy with it.

    The sales rep from RainSoft who contacted me was very informative and nice. I bought the water softener for the house from them. I like the product although I thought it was ridiculous that the installers worked in the dark. Also, the installation apparently wasn't right because every week, I get all this salt in my water - brushing my teeth in the morning and a mouthful of salt is awful. However, they just came out a couple days ago, so we'll see what happens. But I’ve had them here four times already and my husband said if they come back, they can take the whole thing back with them.

    For many years, I had tried about every reverse osmosis system. I went with a representative at Home Depot, not for RainSoft, and they turned out to be really bogus. It resulted in a major complaint and Home Depot took it over and tried to find a solution that would make me happy. Someone came out and looked at the system that I had that failed and that the owners refused to take responsibility for. Then, Home Depot got me in touch with RainSoft.

    Once the reps from RainSoft made the house visit and answered a few questions, the appointment was set up and they came out and installed the system. I talked to the installer and he told me what he was going to do. The plumbing part was already there and could be adapted so he took the old system out and he said that if he could, he would use the salt that was in it. It was as hard as cement so he couldn't. He did everything that he was supposed to. He was very kind and gracious, hauling away all the old crap.

    I read that the National Science Institute endorsed RainSoft so that further impressed me. I'm from Canada originally and where I live, the water was very soft and pure. The water quality, after the RainSoft system was installed, reminded me a lot of that water, so I'm very delighted with it. It's far superior to the other one before their equipment went belly up. I only wish that I'd known RainSoft in the first place.

    The experience I had with the other company was a four-month ordeal. Everywhere you call, you get a door slammed in your face or a gatekeeper tells you, you don't exist. But, RainSoft is exceptional. They make sure every part of the system is working properly and what isn't, they will fix on the spot because they have all of the equipment and parts in their trucks. I don't know how it could be better than that.

    The sales rep from RainSoft was very nice and pleasant, but she talked a lot and never knew when to shut up and if I didn't want the product so badly, I would've just said goodbye. She was thorough and definitely knew what she was talking about. We purchased the water conditioning system and the drinking water filter. The guy who installed these was great, answered any questions we had and explained everything thoroughly which was a reinforcement of what the sales rep said. There's been a tremendous difference since after the system was installed. I can shave what little hair I have without needing to lather if I don't want to. We've already recommended RainSoft to two to three people, to the same salesperson.

He pretty much told us all we wanted to hear and did not pressure us. We got the platinum package that included the air purifier, the little drinking water thing in the sink, and the water softener deal. The installation team came out the first day for the drinking water portion, then came back and threw everything else in. They let us know everything that was going on and how it works and left the area very clean. Since having it, the drinking water has been amazing and we have clear ice cubes.

    My water had a sulfur smell so I researched on water treatment systems. I contacted RainSoft and everybody had been very accommodating. The sales rep scheduled a consultation and a woman came out and said that it would fix the sulfur smell. The installation team came and they were great. One of them said that it would not fix the sulfur smell and that was not the issue. It would be a whole different system other than the one I bought. He tested the water (I wasn't at home) and did not find any sulfur on the test done. After the installation, the water quality is softer-feeling and doesn't leave your skin feeling sticky. I love the RainSoft and I can tell the difference in the water though it has not fixed my sulfur smell, which is why I bought it.

    I had bad water and I’ve never really liked its taste but once we got a Rainsoft system, I loved it. My ex-husband was a Rainsoft employee so he got a special discount when he had a system put in our home. After we divorced, I moved to another part of town where the water was way worse. Denver has some of the best quality water in the country. But on the edge of Denver, there’s another town, Aurora, which I moved into and their water was so bad that my dishes wouldn’t get cleaned in the dishwasher and everything smelled like chlorine. It was pretty nasty even though it was legally safe.

    So I called Rainsoft and I said, "Send somebody out here to talk to me." And a woman, who happened to be someone I had met briefly when my husband worked for them, came out here. She talked about the new versions and what I could do and what I could afford so I bought one and had it installed. Because I don’t have a basement, we had the system put in a closet. My daughter was living with me at the time and losing one of her two closets was not a happy thought for her. Not to mention that after it’s gone for a while, it refreshes itself, cleaned itself out and it was set to do that at 2 a.m. while she’s sleeping in that room. So I had to change it to do it at 2 p.m. when I was home working and it didn’t bother me.

    I have to get used to thinking my skin feels slimy and I'm not getting the soap off but it’s just the essential oil of the skin coming to the surface. And once I get over that feeling, if I ever go back like I'm travelling and I'm in a hotel, and my skin feels sticky and not clean. So I really love it and my clothes get clean and I have a reverse osmosis under the kitchen sink. They come out and service every year and over the years, I’ve had to replace some parts but I now have all the lifetime guaranteed parts on the system I have.

    Rainsoft is a company with a great product and I’m really appreciative of the women who are working in the sales offices, setting appointments, calling and reminding me about their yearly service and I generally call with a discount on the service. I do with that in the month I’m due. And the text had been amazing too. I don’t know too many of the sales people now but when my husband was unemployed, we used to get a company pick-mix, so they did a lot for their employees.

I got the filtration system that takes the chlorine out of the water, a water softener system, and a filter for under the sink that takes the salt out of the water for drinking. Since having those installed, I don't have to buy bottled water any more. The kids and I will actually drink it. Overall, it was a fantastic experience.

    We've been buying a lot of bottled water and decided that we needed something for the house so we got RainSoft. The sales representative was easy to work with. He went over all the benefits of the water, answered any questions we had and did some demonstration for us. We ended up getting a whole house water system and a system for under the sink, a reverse osmosis system. The installation team called to set up an appointment, put everything in for us and explained how things worked and what we needed to do. Since the installation, the water tastes better, feels soft and is nice to shower in. When I was purchasing the system, the rep said we would have two years interest-free from Home Depot but when I got the bill, it was only for six months. I had to call Home Depot and tell them that we were supposed to get two years interest-free and the gal at Home Depot said that she would take care of that.

    We purchased the RainSoft water softener as an addition to our existing water conditioning unit. The water in our area is very hard and our dishwasher left a film on any glassware in it. We had a rep come to our house and were pleased with what he showed us. After purchasing the water softener the crew showed up a couple of days later and installed the unit. For the first few days everything was good. We could actually use our dishwasher and my wife commented that her hands were no longer dried and cracking. After less than a week we noticed that the film was back on the glasses in the dishwasher and the water no longer felt "soft". Around this time the company called and offered a follow-up call.

    When the water was tested by the company rep it showed that the water was no softer than before the softener was installed. He said he would get a technician out to check the unit. After a couple of weeks the technician showed up as scheduled. He reported to us that the mechanism which puts the unit into the flush mode was worn and he would need to have somebody come back to replace the softener. Not sure how a brand new (expensive) softener could be worn. After waiting a week or so for the company to call I contacted them. They set up an appointment about two weeks later. When I asked if they would be bringing a new unit per the previous technician's recommendation I did not get a straight answer.

    The technician was supposed to show up yesterday. I received a call telling me that the technician was running a little late but would be there in about an hour. After waiting a couple of hours I called them to ask where he was and was told that he had car trouble and they would need to reschedule. They gave me a date ten days later. I told the person on the phone that this was completely unacceptable but this got me nowhere. I asked to speak to the manager and was told it was after hours and he would call me in the morning. At this point I have not received a call and still have a nonfunctioning unit several weeks after it was installed.

    I purchased a water system/air system about 7 years ago. In addition to the crappy dishwashing liquid, and horrible shampoo that was supposed to last a year but only lasted 3 months. I was told by the salesman that rain soft would have a contractor move my system free of charge if I ever decided to move. I told him that I wouldn't be moving for at least 5-10 years because this home was just purchased. He assured me that because of the system package I purchased that it would be moved at no cost to me, well I now need to have it moved to my new residence and I called RainSoft which forwarded me to a company named Great Lakes to have it moved and they are wanting to charge me over 300$ to take down and re-assemble the system.

    They do not move the system. I spoke to the service manager Jim and explained what happen and he was rude and unreceptive. He did not resolve my issue so I filed a formal complaint to get this issue resolved on RainSoft website. The RainSoft salesman/distributor sat right in my living room and lied to me. He told me whatever he needed to in order to make a sale and I feel that is very unacceptable. By the looks of it I am not the only person this has happened to. BUYERS BEWARE of the scam the salesmen pull in order to sell this very expensive equipment. I will be writing to the Attorney General about this.

    The sales representative answered every question that we had. If he didn’t know the questions, he was really quick to give an answer for us even if it meant calling his supervisor. Installation took about five days. It was a lot longer than it probably should have but the installer had to go to Home Depot to pick up items that he needed. When he was installing it we had cars in the garage and he had to take those out. They weren't brought in and my husband had to do it which was a little inconvenient.

    We don’t always have that soft water feel so I'm not sure if it's a constant, but so far, so good. The only complaint we have is in the soap. We were told that it would be a five-year supply, but it's not five years at all. The soap company doesn’t offer half of what the representative put down as part of the savings. So because of that being a misrepresentation, I don’t know if I would recommend Rainsoft until that gets changed, only because I don’t want my friends not getting the savings that were implied.

My fiancee was there during the installation and they ended up plugging the system into an outlet that was based on a light switch so it kept turning off and on and I had to go back and do some rework, but it was fine.

    The water is now a lot softer. We don't have nearly the hard water stains or deposits that could get on sinks, clothes, dishes so it's much easier to keep the house clean.

Although the system took a while to install, he was quick for what the work was and answered any questions that I had.

    I follow the RainSoft Facebook page and saw that some people are saying that they did not have a good experience with RainSoft. RainSoft should definitely follow up on that because a lot of people don't understand that their drinking water is not good. The water in Southern California is horrible. It kills the grass. We're in a drought here and the longer the drought goes on, the more the substances in the water are settling down to the bottom, and people are drinking and watering their lawns with this water. These people don't understand what the RainSoft reps are saying when they look at the chemical test. When it comes to installing a water softener or purification system in their house, people should arm themselves with knowledge so that they can communicate better with these guys who are trying to offer them this kind of service. As for me, there was a difference in my whole attitude within 24 hours of my drinking purified water, so it's great.

    After seriously being misled by the RainSoft salesperson, we decided to buy the RainSoft water treatment equipment. Big mistake. First of all, we were guaranteed by the salesperson that the only upkeep for the systems would be "a bag of salt, every couple of months". Not bad, huh? Unfortunately, that is not true. Salt every month or two, filters twice a year, a new membrane every 18 months. The costs are adding up. Secondly, the salesperson guaranteed that in the event we have to move (which we do), the uninstall would be free, RainSoft would pick up the unit and take it to the new place, and there would be a charge for the reinstall at the new place. Again, more deception. The uninstall will be $150-200, and we have to transport it ourselves. Unfortunately, I do not have my current house wiretapped to tape our conversations, so it's our word. Rainsoft refuses to even address this issue.

    And of course, the "miracle soap products" are miraculously horrible. "You'll only need a teaspoon of dishwasher liquid", right. Started with one teaspoon, that didn't work, filled the dispenser, that didn't work. So we bought regular dishwasher liquid. So much for those savings. We are very dissatisfied. Even though we realize that we will not be able to be satisfied by their lack of integrity, we will be able to help avoid others come to a similar fate. Since my wife works at a local university that has a regularly updated community page, we will be able to reach approximately 50,000 people in the DFW area.

It took a lot of time since I had a thousand questions since I made some research already and knew what I wanted. When he was not sure about something, he took the time to call his supervisor to double check that he was telling me accurate information. His supervisor always answered the phone and answered everything. The representative also told me that if any of my friends will get the system, mine would be free, so I gave him different numbers and names for my friends who might be interested. One of my friends actually received a call and scheduled an appointment with their sales representative as well.

    I purchased a salt water softener from them eventually. Installation was scheduled the very next day after I said yes and the installer came right on time. He did everything on point and very polite. He was bilingual, which is good because my dad doesn't speak English. Due to that, he took the time to explain everything to both my dad and I as to how the system works - how to turn it on and off from the water. I've been very happy with RainSoft. The best thing about getting the softener is that my skin, hair, and clothes are soft now. Furthermore, I use less amounts of shampoo, laundry detergent, and dishwasher soap. I'm also not using softener at all for my clothes in my washing machine and the towels come out perfectly.

    I've been calling RainSoft because I was supposed to have a spigot put out on my burette. And when the tester came out, it wasn't installed. She indicated that someone was gonna come back to install, and I have yet to see anyone or be able to contact anyone. So I have a regular spigot out there with the hard water. Other than that, everything is fine. Everything else that was promised to me, I got. I would definitely recommend them, which I have already done so.

    Had the system put in last spring. When the tech who put it in told my wife, "The floor where I put it is not strong enough to hold it. Only use one bag at a time." Their maintenance head, Andy, came and looked at it. He said, "The floor needs to be reinforced, but it should be okay for now. Can we wait until after fair season to deal with? This is our busy time." I affirmed it would be okay and gave it little thought until after the summer when it had sunk low enough that a possum got into my house. Calling the service rep the girl on the phone said that was horrifying and someone would be out at the beginning of the week.

    Beginning of the week came and they called to say their maintenance truck had "broken down" but the office manager wanted to talk to me when he was out of a meeting. He called a few hours later said they weren't equipped to deal with that or insured to do that but would send me a gift card to buy a piece of wood to stick under it. After informing him that they should not have put it there to begin with, if it wouldn't hold it. He said an option was that they could move it and they would have Andy call and talk options. Andy said we could move it and agreed it would be easier to deal with the floor. He said they would call me back. I called him 2 weeks later and he said, "**, they haven't called you? Somebody will call you today." 2 months later, I'm still waiting for that call. Love the system, but the service in Kansas City blows.

    We were in Home Depot and the next thing we knew, we had a RainSoft appointment. Their sales representative knew his stuff and was able to get it taken care of the same day. However, the installation team had to come back out to fix a leak. They broke something on either the sprinkler system or the pool fittings but they were able to get that fixed. Now having the system, the water tastes better. It's easier to bathe with and it doesn't take as much soap to do the laundry. I'm not crazy about the product but as far as the water softener itself, I can't be happier. We're totally satisfied with it.

    I took the entire system. The sales representative was courteous and easy to work with but RainSoft cannot describe to me what I'm looking for in the system and I need to check on to it on certain periods. Right now, I'm looking for a follow up for them to come out and retest after it's been up and running for a couple of months and show me what I'm looking at again. Because when there's so much information, I get overloaded. So our goal was to check salt level and I see there's only two blocks left. However, the installation team cleaned and did a quick and good job. Our water is definitely softer.

    Setting up consultation with Rainsoft's sales representative was not bad and they were able to schedule a time that works well for us. The consultation was good and we have that entire filter system for below the sink, the reverse osmosis and the air purifier. The installation guy was really good, explained exactly what he was going to do, and showed me all the paperwork and everything afterwards. However, at the moment, we are not very happy with RainSoft.

    My husband kept asking, "How much does each individual product would cost? Each individual system?" But we didn't get a price breakdown so we didn't know how much exactly we're paying for the whole system until the end. We were not told until we got the bill. And after that, we tried several times to get in contact with the sales rep. We even called their office and eventually, some contact was made. We also expressed that we are not pleased with the products. For example, I tried the shampoo and the conditioner and I didn't like it. We wanted the products taken back and I expressed that on the call but that was not done. Before Christmas, we were supposed to receive a call and that has not happened at all and the products are still here.

    We're not going to recommend RainSoft, even though the water system works fine, because we were asked to give names of friends and not tell them the price and we're not going to put our friends through something like this. My husband was conned in this experience. And, we're not satisfied because right now we're stuck with some cleaning products. We were told that it's going to remove stains and there was curry on the counter so my husband sprayed it and he left it for a good while yet the curry was still there. I took the Clorox on a paper towel yesterday and immediately, it came off. More so because we were told, "Oh, you won't need Clorox. You won't need anything like that. Use this grapefruit-smelling product and everything will be cleaned. All stains will be removed." And that did not happen. RainSoft is supposed to do something about these and we have not heard everything nor have seen everybody.

    It was easy setting up a consultation with the sales rep of RainSoft. We sent in water to be tested and then someone came out and tested the water again in person for flaws. He was very informative and knowledgeable. He gave us visual examples of our water quality, what the RainSoft system can do and other details. He answered everything that we asked and then some. I ended up purchasing the water softening system and the air purification system from the company. Afterwards, two guys came out and installed them in one day. They were quick, neat, courteous and extremely knowledgeable. They also showed us how to work the entire system. They told us it might take a day or so for the hot water to kick in since the hot water heater was full with other water, and that was nice to know.

    However, we had one issue with the system. So we called, got service and it was repaired right away. It was a simple fix for a common issue that wasn’t even caused by the system. A filter needed to be replaced and the system has been working great ever since. With RainSoft, I’ve noticed a considerable change in the water quality such as the feel of it while taking a shower. Further, my skin does dry out when I take a hot shower, and the water makes it easy to clean stains. It’s nice and was an overall great experience.

    I purchased an EC4 and the sales representative told us a lot but it's not meeting up to what he said. He said that there won't be any more build-up on the toilet around the waterline and there's still plenty of build-up. I think that the water softener system doesn't work well with some soap. It's good but as soon as the water touches the foam, it disperses immediately. It's like washing your hands with water than with actual soap. We haven't had our secondary water test yet since the installation. We were supposed to get it within thirty days but it's been two months already. They contacted us but we were outside the country and when we contacted them again when we were back in, there was no response. I wouldn't recommend RainSoft to anyone.

    We've known about RainSoft since the early 70s because we had one for 20 years in the Longwood area in Orlando. Then when we moved here we set it up for a while in the house that we're currently in. But I got tired of carrying salt, #1, and #2, the timer on that thing went bad and they wanted $200 and something to come out here and fix it so I pulled it out of the ground. However, a friend of a friend of ours had a consultation and they said we might be interested since they've changed some things over the years and made it a little easier to use so we got it again.

    The sales guy was good and the installation was very professional and done nicely. The only real issue that I have is about the $500 worth of soaps and all that stuff that they said was free but I'm not sure whether it was or not. We were also told it's concentrated and HE-compatible but the label on the bottle doesn't say anything about it and the directions says it's specifically for a top-loading machine.

    When I called RainSoft in Orlando to find out because I don't want to screw up my machine, the woman that I talked to seemed to have no clue and she just said, "We sell these products. I don't know what to tell you. We have a memo from the company that has no date but it says it's HE-compatible". When I called customer service, it took a week before I was able to contact them. And when I called the telephone number it was during a day, about two o'clock in the afternoon here and it said Central Time Zone over there, should have been one o'clock. It just rang and rang and rang. Nobody answered the phone and it sounded like it was a bunch of hooey.

    And when someone did, it was a RainSoft technician that works out of Melbourne. He's been there for 15 or 18 years and he explained the whole situation. He said, "Yeah, you're right. The bottles should be labelled appropriately but its not. We buy them from a third party. That's not our stuff. We sell it". So I'm happy with the experience but when a customer calls, asking about one of the products that they're selling, there should be some information as to what the products are and it should be very clear. And when I tried to look for the manufacturer's website, they had no company website. What kind of product is RainSoft selling if you can't even get a hold of the manufacturer?

    Several years back, a friend of mine who had a filter, told me about RainSoft. Since then, the thought of getting a water filtration system has been on my mind. I had done my own research online and was so overwhelmed by all the different kinds of filters available, and I thought I should go for RainSoft because they seemed like a really reputable company. I gave RainSoft a call and left a message with the representative at their office. Within minutes, I got a call from him, then he scheduled a meeting with me the next day, and it worked out very well. He seemed very knowledgeable and really interested in finding out what my needs were. There was also a water test which gave me some sense of how my water was like without the filter.

    I got the reverse osmosis under my kitchen sink, and I also have the full house carbon filter for the complete filtration of all my tap water. The person who was sent to install these was very good and was punctual. Also, I had a special request that I didn’t want my hose water outside to be filtered, because when I water my plants, I don’t want to deplete the filter, and he was able to find a way to bypass my outside water line, and not even mind my watching throughout the process. I’ve had bad experiences with workmen in the house, so I prefer to supervise, and he had no problem with that, which was very good. He was nice and efficient, and he took the time as well to explain what he was doing, including some things about the filter.

    Now with the filter, I find that the water is a lot easier on my skin. I no longer feel as dry after taking a bath, which was mainly why I got a water filter—I have a lot of skin issues. And certainly as well, the smell of chlorine has gone. Moreover, I noticed that when I do my dishes, there’s no more scum around the sink. Perhaps it’s because there’s less particulate and impurities in the water.
