One year ago I purchased a Pelican Water Softener and have been very pleased with the results! For years my wife and I had been using a salt type water softener and found it to be a nuisance to constantly have to buy heavy bags of salt andf lift and load them into the softener tank. I'm a senior citizen and have difficulty handling anything over 20 lbs. From time to time we'd get a "salt bridge" in the tank which resulted in partially softened water. Also we found that during a shower, while we could get ample suds to wash, it was difficult to rinse these suds off without experiencing a "slimy" feeling on the skin. Also our drinking water tastes better now. A few days after the purchase I received the well packaged components by UPS and installed the system in the garage. I've included several photos showing the location on the wall near the incoming water supply. I chose to use copper tubing and sweat fittings. The prefilters are very easy to change and I do this every three months. In conclusion, we are quite pleased with the decision we made and have recommended it to our friends and family.
