Hello dear home builders,

Do you have a water softening system? Is it really worth it, or is it just a money-making scheme?
Our architect recommended one to us, but the question is whether the 3000 euros really justify it.
I think that’s a lot of money.

Just search for the company Grünbeck. Our system will be from this company. It costs about 1,500€ with installation.
I can only confirm that. We also had a Grünbeck system installed including installation for 1,500€ and are satisfied so far. Which Porsche is supposed to cost 3,000€?

For us, it is the "Judo" for 3000 euros and I am very satisfied.

They can be set up incorrectly, for example. But when it comes to water (which is a food product), always have a professional handle it!

So, my fiancé has the exact figures, but in Sindelfingen the water hardness is sometimes extremely high! The washing machine regularly suffers because of it. Even water softeners from the drugstore don’t really help. I don’t know how others in the house have managed so far! We have now voted within the household and want to get one of those systems. However, I have agreed to take care of everything regarding this. You mentioned installation costs of about $1,500, which is quite different from the systems offered by alfiltra. Does anyone know which system I would need if we have five households? Two apartments on the ground floor, two apartments on the first floor, and one apartment on the second floor.

As a financial specialist, cost is always a key factor for me, and I think that’s why everyone quickly agreed once I volunteered to handle it.

In Munich, the water was already hard, but here it is even worse, and I have developed quite a few scalp issues.
We are getting a water softener with salt. It is supposed to work quite well.

One should just avoid drinking the water in large quantities. Otherwise, it’s great.
