Water Softener Prices And Recommended Water Softeners In Each Price Range
Water softener prices typically range from below $1,000 to almost $10,000.
Luckily, the going rate for water softeners is between the $1,000 and $2,500 range, and you can find most of the good quality models at these prices.
Don't assume, though that this is a standard price range, as water softeners are not built the same way - they all vary according to the company that produces them.
So for slight changes in price between two different brands, you don't necessarily get the exact same product.
Water Softener Price Range Below $1,000
The cheaper model, EasyWater 1000 is actually more popular than the more expensive EasyWater 2000, because the specifications of the 1000, regarding pipe size and other dimensions, matches the needs of more homeowners.
People looking to buy cheaper water softeners can choose the EasyWater 1000 over other brands, priced at $849.
However, those looking to spend more money on a water softener, would choose other brands, such as Pelican and EWS, over the EasyWater 2000, which is priced at an $1,299, but not necessarily what these homeowners need. The EasyWater 2000 is more suited for small buildings and swimming pools.
One of the most popular cheap water softners is the WaterBoss 900 for 27,000 grain capacity, priced at $610, although WaterBoss water softeners can go for as low as $426.
Other preferred water softeners in this price range are the metered water softener with 3/4" Autotrol 255/460i control, 24,000 grain capacity with by-pass valve from CAI technologies, costing $900, and its metered water softener with 1" WS1-HCA control models, which range from $770 to $1,080.
Other water softeners sold for below $1k are the Flint and Walling/Star Water single tank water softeners at $495, the Home Master water softener at $800, and the Crystal Quest water softener at $896.
Water Softener Price Range From $1,000 To $2,500
The most popular model in this price range is the Pelican NaturSoftTM Salt Free Water Softener/Conditioner which costs as low as $1,295 and services three to six bathrooms. Slightly advanced models go up to around $2,299.
In contrast, another favored brand, though not as much as Pelican, is EWS Whole House Water Conditioner/Softener and prices are based on the size of the house it needs to service, regardless of the number of bathrooms within.
Concerned with the total number of pipes running through the house, EWS prices their "total filtration" softeners at $2,459 for small to medium houses, and $3,296 for larger homes. EWS's large capacity softener is also considered the best brand for the $2,500 to $4,000 price range.
Other water softeners in the $1k - $2.5k price range include EasyWater No Salt water softeners, MacLean's SpaceMaker mechanical meter water softeners, water softeners from CAI technologies, Crystal Quest water softeners and North Star water softeners.
The cheapest of these is MacLean's SpaceMaker, which is priced at $1,016, followed by North Star's lowest costing water softener, at $1,029. The different brands also have products in different price ranges; for example North Star has several water softeners between $1k and $10,000.
CAI Technologies have a whole range of products with different valves, meters, grain capacities, control levels and other values, the most popular being the Metered water softener with 3/4" Fleck 6700 control, 48,000 grain capacity with by-pass valve, which is priced at $1,140.
Another popular product is their Twin tank metered water softener with 3/4" Fleck 9100SE control, which are priced according to grain capacity and are all within the $1k - $2k price range. For example, the 34,000 grain capacity softener cost $1,090, 24,000 grain capacity softeners cost $1,115, and 64k grain capacity softeners cost $1,455.
Crystal Quest water softeners, with products priced between $1,339 and $2,065, and EasyWater No Salt water softeners both have softeners priced below $1,000.
Water Softener Price Range Above $2,500
The more expensive Crystal Quest models go up to $2785.95. North Star also sells water softeners for above $2,5000.
North Star is actually the maker of the more expensive models of water softener, with more advanced models ranging from $2855 to $3,645, then $5121.30 to 6,610.80, and finally up to $9827, featuring a system that employs 3 tanks.
North Star's tanks are made of fiber glass, which contributes to its high cost. Again, consumers who are willing to spend several thousands on a water softener system prefer to get the EWS whole house water softener for their large homes.
