Powerful Hard Water Removal for Homes & Light Commercial Applications
Hard water can quietly damage your plumbing, appliances, and water-using equipment while leaving behind stubborn scale, spots, and soap residue. The Crystal Quest® 60,000 Grain Water Softener System is designed to eliminate hardness minerals at the source, providing reliable soft water for larger homes and light commercial properties that demand consistent performance. Offering the perfect balance between residential and commercial capacity, this system delivers long-lasting protection without sacrificing water pressure or efficiency.
What It Solves
• Prevents scale buildup in pipes, water heaters, and appliances
• Improves energy efficiency by helping water heaters operate more effectively
• Eliminates hard water spots on fixtures, dishes, and glass
• Enhances soap performance for cleaner laundry, softer towels, and easier cleaning
• Helps reduce maintenance and extend the lifespan of plumbing and equipment
3 Stages of Filtration
Stage 1 – Sediment Filtration
A 20-inch sediment cartridge helps remove dirt, sand, silt, and rust before they reach the softening media.
Stage 2 – Ion Exchange Softening
The ion exchange mineral tank removes calcium and magnesium—the primary causes of hard water—replacing them with sodium or potassium to produce true soft water.
Stage 3 – Carbon Polishing
A 20-inch solid carbon cartridge helps reduce VOCs, insecticides, pesticides, industrial solvents, and other contaminants that may be present while improving taste and odor.

Additional Product Options
-
12 GPM UV Water Sterilizer: Specifically designed to meet the demanding microorganism control concern. These microorganisms can range from bacteria and viruses to algae and protozoa. A major advantage of UV treatment is that it is capable of disinfecting water faster than chlorine without cumbersome retention tanks and harmful chemicals to your drinking water.
-
Oxidation System: Utilizes ozone for efficient water oxidation, improving water quality.
*Pinholes or rust may occur on stainless steel tanks in environments with high humidity, when salt is present or if condensation remains on tank without being routinely wiped down. If your system will be exposed to one of these factors or you are unable to perform the needed maintenance, we recommend a fiberglass tank.
