\"RVWant to experience the benefits of your beautiful soft water even when you are on the road in your RV? you need a portable water softening system!<\/p>\n

As the name suggests, this water softener is designed to be used in portable applications \u2013 such as with RV’s or on camping trips where you cant soften hard water.<\/p>\n

Due to the portability of the device some features that one would associate with whole house softening systems<\/a> (such as auto-recharge of salt) are absent but this is more than made up for by the clever compact design.<\/p>\n

This system that you end up with is a much lower cost, lighter and more compact system that is highly efficient at softening water when you are travelling around the country – if you need to go portable, this system is worth a look into.<\/p>\n

An obvious question in mind here is that will this thing still perform like some of the bigger, home-based water softener systems? Will its effectiveness be effected by its portability? lets find out.<\/p>\n
