SST-60 Resin (Recomend or Not Recomend?)

[JCTX]

I have never had a water softener before but need one in the city/municipality I have moved to since the water is 12 grains per gallon.

The Fleck 7000 sxt 48,000 has been recommended for my new home and I am curious if the SST-60 resin is worth $148 upgrade. I was told it would reduce the salt and waste water by approximately 40%.

What are the thoughts here on this forum about the SST-60?

Thank you all in advance!

12 GPG isn't to bad, we are between 22-25 GPG with a high 530+- TDS count are you buying your softener from a big box store? I might advise seeking out a company that will provide you with the right softener for your area and water quality.

When a customer asks me about getting a softener first thing I do is get the water tested, then I build the softener off the results of that water sample, rather then pulling a softener off the shelf and hope it does it all. We aren't the priciest in town but we want you to be happy for years to come with your product.
