I have been in the same house for 24 years. Terrible well water. Softener, the best that Culligan has, brings the well water down from over 1000 ppm to right around 195 ppm. That water still leaves the vehicle dirtier than when I started.
Putting another whole house water filter gets it down to 145. Not good enough, not by far.
I hated taking the trailer 20 miles to a wash bay, that I had to turn the trailer around to get both sides and it still needed work when I got home.
Finally decided to try Spotless water system.
It worked as advertised. I wash, rinse with the water from the system, and let dry. Absolutely clean. Zero spots. Amazing clean.
Downside: Expensive. They advertise that you should get 300 gallons of clean water from the largest system (DIC-20 that I have). No way I got that much. I washed 1 car, 1 truck, 2 motorcycles, and 1 40ft 5th and the resin was done. I used the water as directed (only as a final rinse).
I contacted them and they said the 300 gallons is based on their San Diego water that they claim is 400 ppm. They said I should get 500 gallons. No way I used that much water. They have a 30 day money back guarantee.
I did decide to keep it and am going to use additional measures to stretch out the amount of clean water you get.
Summary: Spotless works perfectly. However, do everything you can to use as little as possible, as the resin is expensive.
