Water Softeners - How To Compare

If you care, compare. Ask these questions.

	Aquamaster AMS700	Aquamaster AMS900	Sample Competitor	Other Brand
How much water does the softener use per regeneration?	13.9 gallons	14.8 gallons	47 gallons	gallons
How much salt does it use per regeneration?	2.5 lbs	3 lbs	3.5 lbs	lbs
How much time does it take to regenerate?	20 min.	21 min.	108 min.	min.
How many grains of hardness are removed between each regeneration? This is NOT the maximum capacity.*	10,400	15,400	13,600

* The number of grains of hardness removed between each regeneration is NOT the maximum capacity of the water softener. It is a factory setting, or a setting done at installation, that is most likely the most efficient setting for your water softener.

Its important to understand that a water softener uses water and salt to regenerate (clean itself). But all water softeners are not created equal. We encourage you to do your homework and ask the questions. In comparison, you will find that AquaMaster is highly water and salt efficient.

We know it can be difficult to get these numbers from some companies. However buying a water softener without knowing this information would be equivalent to buying a car without knowing its gas mileage performance. If the company doesnt know, or wont give you the information youre asking for, its likely that the numbers arent good and performance is poor.

Now to apply this new knowledge to your situation and estimate how often you water softener will regenerate, how much water and salt it will use in a year:
