Does This Sound Crazy... Water Softener
I would like to put a water softener in my coach sometime this season. The water/sewage service bay is too crowded and not tall enough for a water softener or even water filters. What I am thinking ...

If height is a problem look into the "waterstick" resin/brine water softeners. they lay horizontal, we have one and it works great and is easy to recharge. The disadvantage is capacity in grains. Less than the ones others have mentioned, so it will need more frequent recharging, but it only takes about 15 minutes to recharge and uses less water during recharge. They also make a unit with iron control.

Thanks much! From what I have seen thus far, I thought that all the water softeners were upright units. This certainly looks like an answer where I don't have to run the extra piping.
we love ours. just pull it out when we need it, lay it on the ground and hook up water. Price is right, but as I mentioned, the only downside is the grain capacity. not near as much as uprite units, so you may need to recharge more often, but the recharge is quick and takes little water. Fill with brine, slosh it around, let it set 15 minutes, then hook up and flush for 10 seconds or so into a drain to get the salt out.
