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.

"I just installed my 3rd WaterBoss® 950. I used them at two of my residences in Florida and just installed one in a home I built in Texas. Everyone wants to sell you a $3,000 water softener, but for less than a fifth of the cost, you get not only softened water but filtered water. Works great and makes a huge difference. Great company that stands behind its product."Wesley M.
"My experience with WaterBoss® (model 950) has been excellent. Great value and excellent customer service when I needed a replacement part."Mike V.
"Excellent product, easy to maintain. We have had ours for 16 years with one small issue. The service staff knew the product well and mailed us parts with good instructions. Highly recommend these products!"Chris C.
"Great water softener and easy to hookup! So far so good after 6 months of use. I definitely would recommend it to anyone, especially since it’s made in the USA."Luis P.
"I have had WaterBoss® water softener for the past 13 years. I am extremely pleased with its performance, simplicity, and reliability. I would confidently recommend this product. MADE IN THE USA."Ronald M.
"I bought my second WaterBoss® last summer. My first one lasted 22 years with one failure. Called tech service, part arrived in 2 days, was installed in 5 minutes, and was back in business. WaterBoss® is a small unit - I have it located in a closet. Easy install, easy to operate, and uses one bag of salt per month. The new unit upgraded the connectors. Very happy with WaterBoss®."William D.
"I bought one after installing it for my past employer. I have never been called back due to any issues. They are very easy to install and program. I have had to call their customer service just once because of an install question and found them to be very friendly and answered my questions. I can and will continue to recommend the WaterBoss® softener."Pamela R.
"Our first water boss gave us 23 years. So it was a no-brainer we replaced it with another one. Nice unit! We have been very happy with it and highly recommend buying one for your household."Robert F.
"I've owned 2 WaterBoss® softeners, after 26 years I replaced them with a newer bigger model, not because it failed, but because we just wanted one with a bigger salt capacity. I am very happy with the WaterBoss® and ease of hook-up."FAQs
