Better tasting water

Total Home Protection—Better Water from Every Tap

FilterSmart whole house water systems are designed to fight poor water quality at the source, delivering clean, great-tasting water to every tap, shower, and appliance in your home. Instead of treating water at a single faucet, our system filters everything as it enters your home—so you get full protection, everywhere water flows.


No Harsh Chemicals, Just Cleaner Water

Our advanced whole house water filters removes chlorine, chloramines, and other common contaminants found in ∂municipal water that can damage your skin, hair, and plumbing. The result? Water that feels better, tastes cleaner, and helps your entire home run more efficiently—without the chemical side effects.

Salt-Free Water Softeners: A Healthier Alternative to Salt-Based Systems

Long-Term Savings, Zero Upkeep

Say goodbye to monthly salt refills, maintenance appointments, or hidden replacement costs. FilterSmart systems are salt-free, low-maintenance, and built to last—with no recurring expenses or hassle. It’s a smarter, more sustainable way to enjoy clean water for years to come.


Healthier Skin, Softer Hair, Cleaner Living

Unfiltered water can strip your skin and hair of natural moisture, leaving behind dryness, buildup, and irritation. By removing harsh chemicals at the source, FilterSmart helps restore balance—so you can enjoy softer skin, healthier hair, and a cleaner home environment.


Better Water—Naturally

Unlike traditional softeners, our system doesn’t add sodium, potassium, or chemicals to your water. That means safer water for drinking, bathing, cooking—even for pets and plants. Just clean, natural water from every tap—exactly the way it should be.

Benefits of Whole House Filtration


If you're tired of dealing with the chlorine taste and odor in your water, or you're worried about the quality of your tap water, FilterSmart is here to provide an easy and reliable solution to transform ordinary tap water to bottled water quality at every tap!


  • Improved Water Quality: FilterSmart systems effectively remove harmful contaminants like chlorine, which often gives water an unpleasant "pool-like" taste and smell. This results in cleaner, fresher-tasting water without the strong chemical odor.

  • Health Benefits: By removing impurities, you reduce the risk of being exposed to harmful substances, contributing to better overall health for you and your family.

  • Convenience: FilterSmart eliminates the need for installing individual filters at every faucet in your home. With a whole-house filtration system, you get clean water from every tap without having to replace filters at each one.

  • Improved Skin and Hair Health: By removing harsh chemicals like chlorine, FilterSmart water helps prevent dryness and irritation, leaving your skin and hair feeling softer and healthier.

Low Maintenance & Save Money

Unlike traditional salt-based water softeners, salt-free systems require little maintenance. You don’t need to refill salt or monitor it, making them a more hassle-free option.

Better for Plumbing and Appliances

What to Expect from Our Salt-Free Softener Alternative


Scale protection that works over time — You may not see instant results, but after ~30 days, most homes notice reduced scale on fixtures, glass, and appliances.

No salt, no slick feel — Your water will feel natural, not slippery like traditional salt softeners.

Zero maintenance — No bags of salt, no electricity, no drain lines — and the media typically never needs replacing.

Appliance & plumbing protection — Less scale means longer-lasting water heaters, pipes, and showerheads.

Safe for plants, pets, and the environment — It doesn’t remove healthy minerals, and it doesn’t dump salt into the drain or groundwater.


What Not to Expect

🚫 Water that “feels soft” — Salt-free systems don’t remove calcium and magnesium, so the water won’t feel silky or test “soft” with a hardness strip.

🚫 Immediate visual changes — Results happen gradually. Scale slowly stops forming — and existing buildup reduces over time (not overnight).

🚫 Chlorine or contaminant removal — For better taste, smell, and removal of chlorine/chemicals, pair this with our whole house carbon filter.

🚫 Scale prevention in extreme conditions — Homes with well water with high iron may need additional filtration or conditioning.

Salt-Free Water Softener FAQs (What You Should Know)

Wondering how a salt-free softener actually works? Instead of removing minerals like calcium and magnesium, it conditions them — changing their structure so they don’t stick to your pipes, appliances, or glass surfaces. That means no scale buildup, no water spots, and none of the slippery feeling that comes with traditional salt systems.

You might not notice a dramatic difference overnight — and that’s totally normal. It can take a few weeks to fully work through your plumbing. But over time, you’ll likely see less limescale, easier cleaning, and softer-feeling skin and hair after showers. It’s a gradual improvement with lasting results.

If you also want to remove chlorine, bad taste, or odors, simply pair the salt-free system with our whole house carbon filter. Together, they give you the best of both worlds: clean, filtered, and conditioned water from every tap in your home.

Worried about installation? Don’t be. Most homeowners either install it themselves with our simple guide and video or hire a plumber to knock it out in under an hour. We ship everything pre-loaded and ready to go — it’s easier than you think.

Experience Advanced, Proven Salt-Free Softening Technology

FilterSmart’s Salt-Free Water Softener uses cutting-edge technology to prevent scale buildup without the need for salt or harsh chemicals. Our system utilizes a unique Template Assisted Crystallization (TAC) process, which transforms hard minerals like calcium and magnesium into harmless, microscopic crystals that won’t cling to pipes or appliances. This eco-friendly solution helps preserve your plumbing, water heater, and appliances.

Salt-Free, Low Maintenance, and Eco-Friendly

Imagine stepping out of the shower with softer skin, shinier hair, and no limescale buildup on your shower doors or faucets. With a Filtersmart Salt-Free Water Softener, you get healthier, fresher-tasting water without added sodium—perfect for those on a low-sodium diet.  Plus, no more salt refills, so you save money while keeping your plumbing and appliances running longer.

💡 How to Choose Your System

Not sure which system is right for you? Here's a simple way to decide:


👉 Do you have city water?

Most cities disinfect with chlorine and other chemicals.
✅ Go with the Filter System to remove chlorine, VOCs, and other harmful contaminants.


👉 Do you have hard water or white scale buildup?

If you’re seeing spots on dishes, crusty fixtures, or scale in appliances…
✅ You need the Salt-Free Softener to reduce scale and protect your plumbing — no salt required.


👉 Want both clean water and scale protection?

If you want the healthiest, most complete solution...
✅ The Combo System gives you the best of both worlds — powerful filtration plus salt-free conditioning.


Still not sure?

  • City water + scale buildup? → Combo

  • City water only? → Filter

  • Well water with minerals? → Softener or Combo

  • Sensitive to chlorine taste or smell? → Filter or Combo

👉 Choose the system that fits your home — and if you ever need help deciding, our team is just a message away.
