Due to different regulatory requirements, please note this water softener is not approved for use in the following states: California, Texas, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Arizona, Minnesota, Michigan, and Wisconsin. Please do not buy if shipping to any of these aforementioned states.
Better than our original water softener as this unit has a one multi-step valve for use, recharge, discharge, etc. Although you may have soft water in your locale, it is still a good idea to install a water softener for even the slightest of calcium/lime deposits that can accumulate in your commercial espresso machine.
Our water softener is the best in the industry because,
- it is rechargeable with salt and the unit does not need a filter cartridge replacement, and
- recharging with salt, which can be picked up at a local hardware or plumbing supply house for a few dollars, is cheaper than replacing other filter-type water softeners which create more landfill waste.

Sorry, these do not. Water pressure regulation is handled by water pressure control valve.
We do stock one that is a slightly different handle and we checked to see it fits the newer water softener versions as of today.
Yes, BUT we always recharge with salt and rinse prior to use.
Our V319 was checked and it threaded without issue. These couplings can be used with plumbers tape to cross thread a US fitting.
Sorry, we are not familiar with the other brand.
I have an Ascaso water softener that I purchased from you from you five years ago. I often check the water hardness and maintain it through regular regeneration using water softening salts. The past week I noticed a strange smell and taste when using my espresso machine - like a sweet, mechanical, plastic-melting type smell...I checked over my espresso machine, no issue. Then I checked the water softener...when I removed the cap on top it was like the resin was "blooming", clearly the issue was with the filter. I've attached an image of the "bloom" inside the filter. Have you ever seen or heard about Ascaso softeners having an issue like this? The resin beneath looked to be mostly intact except that it was chunked together with these melted plastic "blooms". Do you sell replacement resin, or would I have to replace the softener? What is the typical lifetime of these softeners? If you've seen this occur before, what causes it and how can I prevent it from happening in the future?
Sorry to see this and we have not seen this before. The water softener should be replaced every 5 years. We do not sell the resin by itself because the entire unit should be replaced as constant water pressure can diminish the structural integrity of the walls as the softener ages.
In this case, there may need to be a carbon filter system installed before the water enters the water softener.
Please follow these instructions.
Sorry, this softener is not NSF approved. To our knowledge, the only two states that govern certification of NSF approval on water softeners are Wisconsin and California.
Unlike water filters which require NSF approval, please check with your local health department for requirements in commercial installations. For home installations, NSF approval is not required.
