I use the NuvoH2O cartridge (which fits in a standard 20in Big Blue housing) with a 20in 10 to 1 micron filter. The NuvoH2O, and filter, are replaced every 6 months at a cost around 145.00 (110.00 for the Nuvo, and 35.00 for the filter). Home depot also carries the NuvoH2O. This setup was requited before the plumber would install a tankless water heater.
For hard water you either need an ion exchange water softener, or a water conditioner like the Springwell Futuresoft reviewed in this video. The only way to completely eliminate hard water minerals is with an ion exchange water softener. A water conditioner on the other hand alters the structure of the hard water minerals, making them unable to stick to each other or surfaces to form difficult to remove scale.
So there’s still scale build up on the faucet? Isn’t it supposed to get rid of it? I have salt based water filtration now and there’s no scale build up at all
There will still be mineral deposits, but they should be able to form difficult to remove limescale. It should be able to be wiped away easily. As you mentioned, salt-based ion exchange water softeners completely eliminate the hard water minerals, so you won't see the buildup at all
My water hardness is 8 gpg.. I’m not so concerned about scale build up more concerned about showering and washing my hair. How has showering experience been since having this?
Salt-free conditioners really won't help with soap lather, as the water hardness minerals are still present. (just less able to form scale). If soap lather for washing your hair and showering are your primary concern, I'd recommend considering an ion exchange water softener to completely remove the hardness minerals.

I'm not sure if the TAC media has a plastic component to it or not. I'd recommend reaching out to the manufacturer with this specific technical question
Hi, I am on city water but it is very hard and has a lot of chlorine. My plumber is recommending the Halo 5 but I have doubts about it working. Would the future soft work for me in your opinion?
Would a salt free conditioner do any good with well water as hard as 200 gpg? I currently have a morton water softenerand 3 stage iSpring carbon filter for the whole home, and additional iSpring RO filter for drinking water and i get that down to 3.4 gpg. The rest of the house without RO I still have discolored water, white spots, buildup, and staining. I'm looking at upgrading to the iSpring WF450k which is maintenance free, and would like to try a salt free conditioner unless my water is too hard.
Water conditioners like this are only intended to alter the chemical structure of hard water minerals. They do not reduce impurities that pose health risks. For that you'll need a water filtration system, like thisru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6lKqQk3Ss80.html
