Kinetico’s patented, precision-engineered valve runs so quietly you’ll barely notice it.
It measures your water usage with watch-like precision and regenerates only when needed – saving water, salt, and money. And when you’re on holiday, your water softener is too.
Unlike other water softeners, our patented counter-current backwash regenerates from the bottom up, ensuring a more even and efficient use of the resin.

Your water softener is typically installed where the external water supply enters your home. In most cases, this is near the stopcock – usually found under the kitchen sink, though it may also be found in the basement or under the stairs.
Installation is carried out by a trained Kinetico professional with the plumbing expertise to fit your system correctly. Beforehand, a Kinetico expert will visit your home to assess your plumbing and ensure everything is ready for a smooth installation on the day.
The process usually takes around four hours, depending on the complexity of your plumbing and the location of your stopcock.
Much like a gas boiler, a water softener performs a critical role in your home. It is good industry practice to have it serviced and sanitised on a regular basis.

Maintenance
All you need to do is add salt. Ensure your water softener performs at its best with our specially designed Kinetico block salt.
A water softener protects your home from the damaging effects of hard water, caused by high levels of calcium and magnesium. Hard water can lead to limescale build-up on taps, showerheads and pipes, reduce the lifespan of appliances such as gas boilers and dishwashers, and cause soap scum as well as dry skin and hair.
A Kinetico water softener transforms your water, giving you a home free from limescale, smoother skin, silkier hair, more efficient appliances, and lower energy bills.
Kinetico has over 50 years’ experience in home water solutions, with our water filters used to ensure cleaner, better-tasting drinking water around the globe. We ensure all our systems are designed with reliability and performance in mind, providing an industry-leading service to our customers.
