Water softener - What should be considered? Recommendations?

We have an offer for a Judo 2-pillar system with installation and everything that belongs to it for 3900 including VAT. Currently, the money is needed for the terrace, but the plan is to install something like that in the autumn. Have a dH of 16-21....

We have Grünbeck SC18 and are very satisfied. Hardness down from 16 to 5 and, for example, also very pleasant when showering, etc.

Regards, Steffen

Advantage: No chemicals

What kind of chemicals? Salt?

The so-called crystallizers.

This technique is new to me. On what physical principle is the effectiveness based?

We have an offer for a Judo 2-column system with installation and everything included for 3900 incl. VAT.

4k Euros is quite a steep price. Is anything else included, 2 years maintenance + salt? Otherwise, I would get comparison offers; just for the system + installation, that’s at least 1000 too much.

2. The so-called crystallizers.

But those aren’t those voodoo things with magnets, are they? [emoji6]

Thank you for the prices. I wrote to my wife that she will not get a water softener. Got a "crying" emoji back.

It's your fault :-p

We decided on the Grünbeck SC23. Costs €1799 and €50 for installation by a friend who is a plumber.

May I ask why the large one? Grünbeck designs the SC23 for up to 12 people. Or are you building a multi-family house? Good price though!
