    We have had the Lifesource system since 2005 (just over 4 yrs). We have a deep well, just over 700 ft and fortunately the water is pretty clean of iron, sulfur, etc. However, I didn't want to use a software because we didn't have hard water and I wanted to avoid filling with salt. But, even though we have 1 inch pipes throughout the house, including to the lifesource unit, our water pressure is poor. We have one sediment filter but if its bypassed, the pressure is still poor in the shower and for the washer. If we bypass the lifesource all faucets, showers and the washer is fine. What can we do to solve this issue because my wife is not happy.

    My husband and I bought the Lifesource product 6 years ago and we have been incredibly happy with it. I researched these systems for 2 years before we actually decided to do it. We faithfully replace the paper filter (which costs about $5) every six months and we notice how much it filters just the dirt and other contaminants in the pipes that come from the city to our house. When we put a new one in, it's white and when we take it out, it's dark brown. But that's the only cost we've had si ...

    I purchased a LifeSource Water System a year ago and now my water tastes great! The water tastes good and it is eco-friendly. The taste of my water has definitely improved. I would recommend this water system to anyone who is interested in becoming eco-friendly but willing to spend money.

    My water tastes great! I purchased my LifeSource Water Filtration Unit a year ago and I love it. It has definitely improved the taste of my water. Now I don't have to buy bottled water and can help the environment. I would highly recommend this to anyone who is trying to become eco-friendly but also willing to spend some money on a water system.

    We installed a lifesource softener in our home about a year ago after a salesman came by in our neighborhood. I mainly bought it to replace our bottled water usage and in that respect it has been great. Reading some of the other reviews about the noise, I haven't had any trouble with it. Ours is located in the garage and our bedroom is right above it and I have never heard anything backwashing.

    My Wife and I have had the LifeSource system for almost 3 years now. WE LOVE IT! The water tastes great and our skin feels so much better now that there is no more chlorine, or other contaminants in the water. I would highly recommend this system.

    We have had our Lifesource Water Filtration system for a year. It does make the water taste better and feels cleaner. I still have mineral deposits on faucets and water spots on glass pots and glasses. If it took care of the spots, it would be great. The backwashing is not a bother provided it is installed away from an interior wall and operates during sleeping hours.

    We've only had our LifeSource system for a couple of months and do like the taste of the water much more over our area's unfiltered tap water (really bad).

    Will probably dismantle the LifeSource system due to the noise "eruption" when the backwash purge takes place -- it sounds like a helicopter is hovering over the house for 30-40 min.

    Before getting a LifeSource Water Filtration Unit we used to get our water filtered renting a Culligan system. We decided to get rid of the Culligan system because of 3 reasons: 1) More and more legislation was being passed "banning" salt water systems in our area due to the waste it produced in local rivers, 2) Culligan often would raise the monthly fees to lease the water softener unit, and 3) The Culligan system required a separate, bulky reverse osmosis unit under the kitchen sink which ...

    I've had my LifeSource Water Filtration Unit for 8 years. Not one problem and I have great tasting water. No maintenance. Water throughout the house tastes great. No smells. No chlorine. No need to add salt or other minerals.

    I would not recommend LifeSource Water Systems for anything. The company earned a gold seal from the Water Quality Association for the beotron series, but not any other product. The system they sold us I would say was poorly designed to handle the treatment of our well water properly. Please do not buy from this company if you are on your own private well. Contact your local well supply store or find another company. DO NOT USE THEM AT ALL FOR PRIVATE WELLS.

    If you have really hard water like we do, I wouldn't recommend this LifeSource Water Filtration Unit. We have to change our pre sediment filters quite often. Although we do not use as much soap. We still have spotty dishes, sinks, showers, scally dishwasher etc. As far as making the deposits disappear, it did not even come close to what the salesman said it could do. If you want to improve the taste of your water, I think it would be more economical to just put in a high end carbon filter.

    Although calcium and magnesium are good for you, they are in a non organic form in the water. You are better off taking a vitamin or eating healthy the relying on your water for these items. Hard water might even increase the risk of kidney stones. Your kidneys are forced to filter it out, leaving residual. Eat your veggies and you'll be fine. Culligan offers a 2 in 1 carbon/softener system that works great. Either way, I find Lifesource is just a over priced carbon filter. Be prepared to contin ...

    It is more that just a Granular carbon filter, it conditions the minerals..sure I have spots but they wipe off with
    a damp or dry cloth...plus I've done research and found out that research by the World Health Org. has stated that
    calcium and magnesium are essential for the body...and lack of thereof can cause CVD, cardio-vascular disease.

    I had very high hopes for the very expensive LifeSource Water Filtration and "water softening" unit. We used to have a soft water system that used salt/potassium, but we were having problems with the taste of the water. The LifeSource web site and literature made me believe that this would be the solution to my problems. Yes, the water tastes great, but it takes extra work now to get my clothes clean (I have 4 year old twin boys, so clothes can get quite dirty). This system doesn't eliminat ...

    LifeSource Water Filtration Unit - We wanted an alternative to regular water softeners. My wife hates the slippery feel they cause. The Lifesource system made the water taste great, so we cancelled our water deliveries and saved a bunch of money there. This system took out the chlorine, even in the shower. My wife still comments how smooth her skin is. The company was easy to deal with and has pretty good service. Way better than any water system we've ever had, we love our water!
