Water softeners are built to last for at least 10 years. When properly maintained, the softeners can last several years beyond that time.
The most common feature of a water softener is a timer-based system that will soften water at a set time each day. Other systems are able to soften water as needed. Timer-based water softeners tend to cost less to run, saving homeowners about $100 per year.
