SoftPro Elite HE
Score: 88/100Rankings
The SoftPro Elite HE is a high-efficiency whole-house water softener engineered specifically for private well water applications, featuring a 64,000 grain capacity and on-demand regeneration technology. It utilizes ion exchange to remove hardness minerals while maintaining full water pressure through large 1-inch internal plumbing and a high-efficiency upflow design. Best suited for larger households with well water dealing with extreme hardness levels.
The Aquasure Harmony Series 50,000 Grains is a robust whole-house water softener designed for larger households with 4-6 bathrooms, featuring a high flow rate and integrated pre-filtration. Its main trade-off is high water consumption during regeneration cycles and a reliance on external power. It is best suited for users with well water needing iron reduction and those seeking comprehensive contaminant removal alongside softening.
