  • Great whole house softening and filtration system
I purchased the Aquios unit from Amazon right before Christmas and had it professionally installed a little over a week ago. For anyone concerned about the installation costs, I hired a local plumber and he was able to install the unit for $150 including parts, and it took him less than an hour. I'm sure someone with good plumbing skills and basic tools could easily install the softener themselves; I simply know my limitations and elected to have it installed properly. I couldn't be happier with the results. My wife and I started noticing a difference in our water quality immediately, and it keeps getting better every day. True, this unit may not match the classic definition of a water softener since it does not use salt, but if crystal-clear water, no chemical taste, elimination of scale buildup and essentially maintenance-free operation is what you are looking for in a whole-house conditioning system, then the heck with "classic" definitions. We've both noticed a better "feel" from our water in the shower, and the amount of soap and shampoo we use in order to feel clean has been drastically reduced. The first time I used my espresso machine with our "new" water, it was like night and day. The coffee carafe did not show any signs of lime or scale buildup, whereas previously I would have to wash the container out with soap and hot water after each use. Our water was so hard, we had to scrub the toilet bowls daily to keep them clean, and now all of those water stains and "gunk" have simply disappeared. The shower mirror stays crystal clear with no signs of haze, and our water tastes great right from the tap. It puzzles me how someone could write a review for a product they've never used. So, even though this unit does not use salt, who cares??? If its results you're looking for, I would recommend you take a close look at the Aquios system as a viable alternative to salt-based conditioners. ... show more

  • Great Taste - No Waste - Easy Maintenance
I live in Indianapolis, Indiana. Our city is known for having VERY HARD WATER that kills water heaters, dishwashers, faucets, etc. fast. I had doubts about purchasing the Aquios FS-220 Water Filter rather than simply getting a traditional salt-water softener. However, I'm EXTREMELY GLAD that I bought the Aquios. Here's why: 1. GREAT TASTE: My water tastes better than bottled water. That's right, better. There are no odors, no after-tastes, nothing but pure, clean water. 2. NO SCALE: The Aquios has removed all traces of scale on our dishes and appliances. 3. NO LEAD: The Aquios removes heavy metals (salt water conditioners do not remove lead). 4. NO SALT: The Aquios doesn't add any salt to my diet (salt water conditioners do). 5. LOW MAINTENANCE: I simply change a filter once every 6 months or so. 6. NO MORE HEAVY BAGS OF SALT. 7. NO WASTED WATER FOR REGENERATION CYCLES (Aquios doesn't need to regenerate). 8. BETTER WATER PRESSURE: Aquios filters remove scale build up in existing plumbing, so your pipes getting cleaner over time. We have had it only a few weeks and are already noticing some minor improvement in pressure. I had a salt conditioner a few years ago, and I hated having to load heavy bags of salt into it every week, and then listen to it regenerate at night (noisy). All that is gone forever. The best thing I can say is, how happy I am with my purchase. I highly recommend the Aquios FS-220 to anyone using HARD to VERY HARD municipal water. If you have well-water, then you probably need a pre-filter to remove sediment, etc. but it you're on city (municipal) water, then all you need is the Aquios.

  • I also noticed the funny water smell (sometimes of algae
I’ve had the Aquios Full House Water Softener/Filter installed in my house for about a month now and the first thing I noticed after installing it was I no longer itched when getting out of the shower. In the past I would start itching just minutes after drying off and would continue to itch anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes later. Applying extra lotion and creams would help but didn’t stop the itching completely. Some people would tell me the itching was caused by algae in the water; others would say the hard water is what was causing the itching. Whatever the case the itching stopped immediately after the Aquios filter was installed. That, in and of itself, was worth ever penny I spend for this system. As others have said in their reviews – this is not a “traditional” water softener however I have noticed that the water is softer than before. I also noticed the funny water smell (sometimes of algae, sometimes of sewer and other times of chlorine) is no longer present. For those of you looking for a whole house water purification system but not wanting the maintenance of a traditional water softener this is the way to go. So far I am very please with this system. ... show more

  • Reduces lime and soap scum buildup in cold water
This does work, although it doesn't actually remove the hardness. This causes a bit of residue to be left over time in hot water applications, like the dish washer or boiling water. I was also surprised to see that the stock filter, while stating it removes particles larger than 5microns, does not actually reduce the parts per million (PPM) particles in my well water. All in all though, I do like it better than the electric salt water softener, and it freed up a lot of space in the utility closet. UPDATE: I have noticed that the residue left from heating or boiling water is much easier to remove than without a softener. I replaced the electric + salt softener because it had failed; when it was not operating, lime and calcium build-up required CLR or Lime-a-way to remove it, whereas now it comes off with a washcloth or scrub brush. ... show more

  • Waste of money
This product does not do anything as promised. Easy to install, but that’s about it. I thought I found a product that was salt free and would soften my water. After one year and replacing the filter, absolutely no change in my water.
