Capacity by Salt Dose

No capacity-by-dose table published. Aquasure gives the 48,000-grain rating without the salt dose behind it. Softeners in our database that do publish one deliver well under half their top figure at the lowest dose. Why that matters.

Our Read

The Harmony is the cheapest whole-house softener in the database by a wide margin, and it gets its own threads in r/WaterTreatment. The short warranty and missing salt data are the trade-offs. Read the 20 gpm figure as the valve’s capacity, not the system’s.

Bottom line: The value pick for a DIY install on city water, if you accept maker-only figures and a 1-year warranty unless you register.

Maker Claims vs the Record

Flow: maker says

Valve rated 20 gpm continuous, 26 gpm peak. Aquasure manual

On the record

That's the control valve alone. No system service flow (valve + resin bed) is published or certified.

Our read

Expect less than 20 gpm through the full softener. Certified 1.5 cu ft systems list about 9.5–11 gpm.

Capacity: maker says

48,000 grains. Aquasure product page

On the record

No salt dose given for the rating. Aquasure manual

Our read

Aquasure doesn't say which salt dose the 48,000 figure assumes. Softeners that publish a table reach their top figures only at high doses.

What We Couldn't Verify

  • Resin volume (third parties say 1.5 cu ft; Aquasure's page doesn't).
  • Salt dose and efficiency.
  • Performance in your home, which depends on your water chemistry and use. We haven't tested this system ourselves.
