Looking at two different water softener systems.
Hague, or Kinetico.

Anybody have any good info on them?

I can get a good deal on the Hague, but I like the Kinetico's features.

Anybody?

Go with the Hague, especially if the Kinetico is a salt unit.

They are both salt units.
The Hague requires 110vac, the Kinetico does not.

I don't know how, or if, the Hague is better than a regular water
softener, and at prices in the thousands of $, it better be far more
efficient than the ones that sell in the hundreds of $. The below links
are about false claims and poor, or no service, which just may originate
from the sales people, distributors, or installers, but I would be leery
about spending an exhorbitant amount of money for an appliance that can
be bought from an appliance store or even online.
This sounds like the sales pitches the Kirby and Rainbow vacuum cleaner
salesmen used to sell their overpriced cleaners.
