How a Saltless Water Softener is Different In contrast, saltless water softeners leave the minerals in the water, but condition the water so that the minerals don’t build up in pipes or household appliances. Many models also claim to remove existing scale. Saltless softeners don’t typically claim to alter the feel of tap water as much as salt-based water softeners do. Whether this is a good thing or a bad thing is a matter of opinion. Some people describe the water produced by salt based water softeners as smooth and silky to the touch. Others find it slippery or oily. The technology behind salt free water softeners varies by brand. Some use electronic pulses to prevent scaling. Others – including some of the most popular brands – use no electricity at all and simply filter your water through a medium of one sort or another. Finally, some companies claim their products work through miscellaneous methods that range from unproven to downright dubious. Reasons to Buy So, who should buy a saltless water softener? You might consider a salt free option if you: Don’t want to deal with expensive (and heavy!) water softener salt Want an eco-friendly alternative to salt-based systems Don’t have space for a conventional water softener system and its bulky tank Don’t want to strip healthy minerals from your drinking water Are on a low sodium diet and don’t want to introduce salt into your tap water Don’t like the feel of soft water, but want the other benefits of softening No-salt water softeners range widely in price, but are often more expensive than their salt-based counterparts. However, before deciding between salt-free and conventional, be sure to factor in the cost of installation and maintenance. Installation of a conventional salt-using water softener can be complex, and may require the services of a professional at a cost of hundreds of dollars. Also consider the cost of salt and possibly a tap water filter or separate water line to ensure your tap water remains drinkable.
