Don't fall for marketing hype. Read the box. If it says “reduces chlorine,” it doesn’t soften. If it says “softens,” it’s a different product entirely.
Your water is a complex character. Sometimes it’s hard. Sometimes it’s just dirty. Know which villain you’re fighting.
Remember: A filter cleans. A softener swaps. They are buddies, not twins. Now go enjoy a glass of clear, non-softened water. Cheers!
