We are on city water, we are building a house with 2 extra large showers and 2 tubes. Its me, the wife and our 2 daughters. My wife really wants a softer so I sent our water off to affordablewater.com to have it tested. The house is plumb for a water softener so install will be easy. The problem is I talked to a local water expert who tested the water and said that we needed a 30,000 grain system and affordable recommends a 40,000 gran. Neither asked us about our water usage habits. Anyway I want a Fleck9100 sxt Twin tank. What size system should we get?
