Product removes chlorine but does not soften water; customer service unresponsive.
“It DOES NOT SOFTEN THE WATER; this is a FALSE CLAIM/Advertisement.”
Many reviews describe ongoing support problems with refunds, returns, and calls that go unanswered. Several customers also report product issues, including lower water pressure and filters that did not remove contaminants. A smaller group mentions smooth installations and helpful technical support. Complaints also repeat disputes about fees, duties, and warranty coverage.
Examples from available reviews (Dec 2021 โ Mar 2026).
Product removes chlorine but does not soften water; customer service unresponsive.
“It DOES NOT SOFTEN THE WATER; this is a FALSE CLAIM/Advertisement.”
Filter failed to remove contaminants and company made returns expensive and difficult.

Bought and installed whole-home filter; support helped and offers peace of mind.

Reviewers often describe support falling apart after a unit fails or an order is canceled. Complaints include being charged for water tests that never arrived, refusal to service failed units, and trouble getting returns processed. A smaller number of reviews mention useful post-sale help during installation.
Several customers mention surprise fees and refunds that were reduced or not paid, including a 25% deduction on a returned order. Return shipping costs and duties come up repeatedly in negative reviews. A few reviewers say the installed system felt like acceptable value.
Multiple reviewers report reduced or lost water pressure after installation and problems fitting recommended units to existing plumbing. One reviewer notes a sulfur smell when an oxidizing tank circulates. At least one reviewer describes an easy install and continued peace of mind.
Several reviews say the products did not do what was advertised, including filters that did not improve water quality and systems that do not soften water. Some units reportedly failed within a year and needed service that customers say they could not get. A small number of reviewers report units arriving in good condition and working well.
Customers often describe slow or absent responses from support and calls that were not returned. Reviews also mention shipment holds, duty issues, and warranty disputes with little communication. One reviewer points to clear follow-up and support as an exception.
Negative reviews focus on unresponsive service, unexpected fees, and products not matching claims. Positive reviews center on successful installations and responsive technical help. Together, the reviews show a sharp split between these two experiences.

I'm delighted that I was able to get this good from Spring Well Company.
The saltwater filter on my prior system failed after a couple of years of use, so I decided to make the investment and buy this one.
I made the right choice!
It's simple to use and does not need any technical knowledge.
The delivery man was pleasant and efficient; he just needed a few minutes to explain how everything worked before we were on our way.
Overall, this is an amazing product at a very reasonable price, and I have been quite satisfied with the service I have gotten.
The salt-water purifier was delivered in perfect shape and has been performing well since then.
Thank you very much!
