Regeneration is the process of taking hard water and reducing it to softer water. The WaterBoss® units regenerate faster than competition, which in turn saves homeowners on their water bill, salt usage and electricity consumption.

"Easy to install. Very easy to manage and change program cycles. Our WaterBoss® ( 700 ) works great for the 2 of us. I would buy it again."Scott B.
"I really like my WaterBoss® 700 for a couple of reasons. First, it is the only water softener I could find locally that fits in the crawlspace of my split level. Second, when the unit I purchased had a problem they sent a replacement part quickly. One call and my problem was solved!"Wade S.
"The second WaterBoss® 700 I have owned and installed. Great product, easy to use, and compact size. Integrated water filter eliminates the need to plumb another filter inline."Robert O.
"We bought a house with a 10-year-old WaterBoss® 700. After a couple more years of use, it stopped working. I was able to get quick advice from the company and repair my softener by replacing one part. It's now working great again. I like the fact that the softener is "on demand" and only cycles when necessary. It softens our water well and doesn't use as much salt as softeners we've had at other homes. I give 5 stars for performance and 5 stars for customer service."Esther G.
"I have had several WaterBoss® 700 units and am satisfied with the unit, AND much more satisfied with the customer support. Mostly talk to ladies and am so happy they hang in there with me to get any issues resolved or questions answered. If you need a part, they send it with no questions. The only thing that I personally don't like is there is no one in the Tampa Bay area who repairs them. My plumber was clueless as to how to replace a part and it cost me. Anyhow, a great unit."Roberto G.
"This is my second WaterBoss® water softener, and I'm very pleased with both....!"Steven P.
"We are enjoying our WaterBoss® after our “typical” water softener gave out after 10 years. The WaterBoss® uses much less salt and keeps up well with our need for soft water for our family of 3 adults, and often grandchildren, and other visitors."Lisa S.
"Our softener is doing a great job of keeping our hard water managed. We live in the country and have a well with hard water. I absolutely love how the WaterBoss® people walked us through setting up our softener controls to make certain everything was correct. The process was easy and efficient! We're very pleased with Water Boss!"Richard M.
"Customer service is 2nd to none, the WaterBoss® is an amazing water softener. It’s our 2nd one... A 30-year-old retired Army veteran can’t thank WaterBoss® for their contribution to American-made products, great job done!"
