Hard water is characterized by its high concentration of dissolved minerals, primarily calcium and magnesium ions. When hard water passes through pipes, appliances, and surfaces, these minerals tend to form mineral deposits or “scale.” Over time, this scaling can lead to reduced water flow, damage to appliances, and increased energy consumption. Traditional salt-based water softeners are designed to address this issue.
Choosing the right Kind Water℠ whole house filter and salt-free softener for your home can be an overwhelming decision, but we are here to help. If you have ANY questions about our Kind℠ systems, feel free to call us during business hours and we’ll be happy to speak with you as long as necessary. If speaking on the phone is not your thing, you can also use the form on our contact page, and one of our friendly Kind℠ representative will respond as soon as humanly possible.

From the time the order was placed until it showed up at the front door was literally less than 24 hrs!!!
The next day the system was placed in service. It took only a couple leisurely hours to install and within minutes there was a noticeable difference in water quality!!
I can’t believe I waited so long to do this!!
Only after one day I have already recommended this system to many coworkers and friends!!
Thanks for a great product!!
I have been buying bags of 40lb water softener for years, lugging that in and out of my garage, and buying bottle water because we were only treating our water with salt pellets. I compared Kind Water Systems to other systems on the market and found the quality and price to be far more superior than other systems. With that said, I decided to put it to the test. First, the website is very user friendly and easy to navigate (5 stars), 2nd the customer service and their ability to answer all of my questions (and I had a lot) was amazing (5 stars). 3rd I received a shipping notification within 48 hours of purchasing the product on line (5 stars). 4th I received the product 48 hours later (so approximately 4 days from purchase) which is unheard of in this economy (5 stars). 5th – my plumber was able to install the new system and remove my ancient salt softener system in just a matter of a couple of hours (5 stars). And most importantly, our water flowing through our entire house is now perfect to drink and shower with (5 stars)! No more bottle water, no more 40lbs of water softener! Both my wife and daughter said they love the way it makes their hair feel when they shower too (10 stars). It also created more space in my garage since it mounts on the wall (see photo) (5 stars). I signed up for the automatic annual filter order service they offer because I’ll never remember to do that on my own (5 stars). I do not normally leave Google reviews but felt compelled to with this product. I’d probably give it more than 5 stars if I could! I hope the company produces one for RV’s next! I’d buy that in a heartbeat and give it 10 stars too!
Its nice to get a human on the phone quickly.
called with install questions twice and both times got quick knowledgeable advice. Very professional and helpful.7/01/2022

All Kind systems are made with certified components and designed for peak performance. Cities and Municipalities often vary the amount of chemicals they introduce into your water throughout the year and in doing so it can affect the longevity of your filter. Replacing your filters once a year ensures that your system is operating at peak performance at all times.
The Kind filters also utilize a Catalytic Activated Coconut Shell Carbon Block technology giving the best filtration possible without the carbon dust, channeling, and flow issues associated with loose granular coal base carbon found in traditional tank-style filters. Simply put, whole-house water filtration has evolved and so has the way you filter your water.
