This video reviews the Morton water softener, presented by "Grade the Water Guy," who has over 33 years of experience in the water treatment industry. The video aims to guide viewers in choosing a water softener that offers good value, considering upfront costs, operating expenses, and system longevity. It critically examines the Morton water softener's features, sizing recommendations, and warranty, comparing it to other options and offering advice on proper sizing and water testing.
The reviewer's conclusion about the Morton softener is that it is a standard down-flow system with a limited warranty (one year on parts and labor). He highlights that its sizing recommendations may be too general and questions its advertised ability to remove high levels of iron. He contrasts it with more efficient up-flow systems that offer better savings on salt and water. While he doesn't explicitly say "do not buy it," his detailed critique and comparison suggest that he does not recommend it over other, more advanced options available.
