Aquasure Signature Elite 48,000 Grains Complete Whole House Water Treatment System with Digital Metered Control Water Softener, Conditioner and 75 GPD RO Reverse Osmosis Filtration for 3-4 bathrooms

This package is great. I was just going to get the softener until big package went on sale. I save money by buying to complete setup at once. Buying it this way is like getting the undercabinet reverse osmosis with tank and faucet for free for additional savings. 1st thing to note is that your filters will arrive in several shipments. Mine arrived in 5 separate shipments. I only received 1 tracking number. So when I tracked my order, it said it would arrive March 21. To my surprise, I got a partial shipment following the day I ordered it. Marked on the packages is a red label explaining that there will be other deliveries and just 1 tracking number. The last package arrived March 20..yes on a Sunday. All packages arrived in good condition and earlier than quoted.As for the install, it was also easy and straight forward. My house was ready for a water softener install along with a drain. Plumbing took about 2.5 hours total. Since the water softener unit I purchased is made with 1" lines, I used 1" pex and sharkbite push connectors to plumb it all together. I used 2 adapters to connect it to my home copper lines that are 3/4" lines. Plumbing parts cost me $468 tax included. Yes, 1" sharkbite connectors are expensive but easy to work with. Cheaper Plumbing can be had by either using Pex clamps or a 3/4" lines and reducing the Plumbing at each filter inlet and outlet. I choose to keep ot all uniformed. I saved a little money by turning the water softening unit "sideways". It eliminated 2 90 degree elbows which was about $40 in savings. I used about 15 feet of 1" PEX line. (About $15 worth). The cost is all in the connectors. Again, you can plumb it cheaper, but I wanted the ease of it. No leaks, all fittings installed great. I used Teflon tape and a very small dab of silicone for the threads. I used aquarium safe silicone. A small dab is about half a pea size. I wrapped the connectors with Teflon tape and evenly spread the silicone over the tape. This causes a small bead of silicone when the connectors are screwed in all the way, thus sealing it. No leaks. I let it dry overnight. In the morning, I completed the Plumbing to the house and followed the instructions in the manual. It took about 10 minutes for the water to run clear when flushing the carbon out of the lines. If you have a 2 story home, make sure you bleed out the air in all faucets, showers and toilets...especially on the second floor. If you don't, you can lose water pressure due to the trapped air. It happened to me. I simply opened up all faucets upstairs and opened the bypass for the water softener to get water flowing again. After all air was released from the lines, the unit had been working perfectly. We noticed the difference right away after initial setup of the water softener. It takes about an hour for this. You will notice it right away on the cold water side. To notice the hot water difference, it took us a day because of the old water inside of the water heater. We needed to use that water 1st before the softened water came through. I finished install on March 22 and we have been enjoying our system. Water feels and tastes great. No problems so far. Make sure you use the online calculator to program your unit. Ours will regenerate every 3600 gallons at 2am. Our hardness is at 267 in Las Vegas. Make sure that is programmed correctly. You don't want to waste water by regenerating unnecessarily. You will just waste water and salt. If any updates are needed, I will post it.

This is a good system. There was a learning curve that flooded the basement a couple times, but now that I know all the ins and outs, I’ll design my next house with all the backwashes and cleansing operations in mind. Worth calling the company and asking detailed questions, they were very helpful.There is a cleanse that happens every so many gallons (to be calculated per your use and tap quality) and there is also a backwash that needs to happen every 7-10 days. When ordering the product, soft water cleanse comes automated, but the backwash manual. Highly recommend buying the piece that automates the backwash as well so that everything is ready for your plumber. I didn’t know this so now my lines have to be redesigned to add the automation. And, of course make sure your drain is never frozen or clogged so those automated rinses don’t flood your mechanical room.

Very thorough system. Will take a decent understanding of plumbing to install correctly. Works great.

I have well water (Florida stinky kind) which always deposited soot in my faucet aerators, not to mention the hardness and foul sulfur odor (even with the so called reverse osmosis retaining tank that my pump pulled from) and a sediment filter. These puppies took care of that. Set up with a bypass for easy maintenance (manual will show you how) and installed the pre-filter, charcoal filter, softener. And baby my water tastes amazing! Was buying cases and cases of water so we can drink. Not anymore. I’m happy with my investment. They were easy to install. (Use flexible 1” metal hoses instead of pvc to allow for better placement of filters. Shipment came in 5 boxes. Did not even use the reverse osmosis system they sent. No need, water tastes amazing. All in all I’m very satisfied with this purchase! (No leaks either)

I like that this system doesn’t produce any noticeable reduction in water flow or pressure. The improvement in water quality however is very noticeable. The water looks, tastes, smells and even feels much cleaner and better.Professional installation is probably warranted unless you are adept with plumbing; not necessarily because of the system itself but because of the need to modify your existing plumbing. Mine was professionally installed. Only downside is maintenance is unnecessarily complicated by lack of clear identification (e.g. by part number) of what replacement elements to buy in the documentation. All things considered I would buy this again.

Water quality is a night and day difference, and our skin and hair feel great. I was unaware that new faucet was just a small "drinking fountain faucet" and I thankfully had a soap dispenser in my granite counter top to swap out. I did have a small chip in my sediment filter housing which caused a small leak. Aquasure quickly shipped a new one to me, so very pleased with their customer service. All in all I would definitely recommend this system to anyone wanting a spa quality shower without having to go to the spa.
