The FUTURA-15 salt-free, anti-scale water conditioner is a new advancement in water treatment technology that conditions water without the use of salt or corrosive chemicals. It uses an advanced ceramic media that effectively attracts and neutralizes hard water properties without the need for regeneration, backwashing, or electricity. FUTURA’s catalytic granules are not consumed in the conversion process, thus resulting in its exceptional long life and durability.
- Designed for 3-6 bathrooms homes with 15 gallons/minute flow rate, FUTURA-15 effectively prevents scale buildup and prolongs lifespan of pipes and home appliances without the use of harsh chemicals or salt.
- Easy to install and lasting for years, this maintenance-free system does not require electricity, backwash, drainage for wastewater, or troublesome salt replacement.
- The system conditions water without slimy feeling and offers much easier clean-up of hard water spots on cars, windows and dishes. Suitable for water hardness levels below 25 grains/gallon.
- Without discharging any salt waste or chemicals into the water, the system is 100% environment friendly and safe for plants, as well as reduces health risks and improves your cardiovascular system
- Worry free: Comes with 10-year limited warranty, plus life-time expert support directly from a first-rate manufacturer

I moved to Arizona and had a lot of junk in the water plus hard water. I installed the RO-90 in August 2017 and bought the see through canister and you could see the filter from white to dark brown in six months. The water tastes way better than any of the other brands out there. I bought your Futura-15 plus whole house 20″ carbon filter and had it installed today 3-20-2018. I tell everyone you are the best company around. No more water bottles. Very satisfied customer.

Works great, my only problem is knowing how to warranty it. There was no information on it. But soft water and filtered water, quite the change from our previous water

About 6 months ago my wife and I had an APEC Futura-15 water de-scaling system installed at our home to replace a salt-type softener. My wife and I are environmentally conscious and we were looking for a way to soften our water without wasting all of the back-flush our system was using. I was also concerned about the amount of salt that was being dumped back into our city’s waste water system. In some ways the Futura system seemed too good to be true; it used no electricity, no salt, and had no need for constant recharging.As a scientist I was skeptical that it would perform as promised. So before your system was delivered, I cleaned and de-scaled every sink faucet and showerhead in our home (we have 5 bathrooms so that was a fair amount of work)! Over the past six months I have monitored all of the water outlets in our home and have to say that not a single bit of calcium has built up on the faucets or showerheads. To me this is truly amazing. As another benefit, I have seen far less rust around the hot and cold water fixtures than with the salt system. (My suspicion is that the salt content in the water from the previous softener was not only more corrosive than pure water, but also an electrolyte). My wife has just asked me to note that the houseplants also look a lot better than before.All-in-all, we have been very pleased with the Futura-15 system we purchased from you. I had my doubts that it would work and was worried that I would be writing a different kind of letter asking you to take it back. My compliments on a fine product that we feel has been good for our home environment and the environment as a whole.

Have had our Futura 15 for over a week now and the quality of our water is vastly improved. Better lathering and less dry skin. It is also aesthetically pleasing. On our house, it was not easy to install, and we had to pay our plumber but it is surely worth it. If you like high quality water, then this system is what I would choose.

I’m very happy with the product and want to make that clear, however…It’s been difficult getting the promised ‘gift’ of a replacement filter by leaving a review. As usual, reviews often overlook the company behind the product, so I’ll elaborate. I installed the whole house conditioner and filter myself, the fittings and supplies cost me an additional $300 but was not too difficult to install. Apec offers a free replacement filter for leaving a review -so beware, reviews are being ‘bought’. There are hurdles to overcome, as well… they are very particular on their process; this is my 3rd attempt at getting it right. I just hope, should I need customer service from this company, they don’t play the same type of games. The replacement filter is a $20 value, the headache they’re causing me isn’t really worth my effort… but I’ll play along (again). The product has worked well for me, though, my scale has been significantly reduced. What you get is a large plastic tank, plastic fittings, and a metal sheath-like cover. There’s media in the tank, about a quarter full. They say tighten plastic fittings by hand, but I recommend a wrench… just be gentile. Follow their directions (to the letter) when leaving your review, the person in charge of free stuff is a nitpicker.

I am very happy with the results from this system because I have seen the difference in the water.

Product was easy to install. Looks great. Looking forward to get ‘softer’ water, as I can already notice it.

I had a salt system in my old home and didn’t care for the added sodium. I love that my family gets their clean water without the additional salt exposure.

After my research, I did find many No Salt Softener Systems out there but none is quite like yours using all quality US made components, built in California, and having a 20″ high capacity Carbon instead of the little 10″ one. Overall very satisfied with how your company packaged the unit, installation instructions are clear, and the systems are working flawlessly. I already have 2 units installed at different locations and possibly a 3rd soon for my newest home.

The water quality has been better and I feel more secure about my children taking baths in the filtered water. Thanks for a great system!

My wife thinks I am crazy when she knows I bought this system. However, after 1 month use, she likes it! She told me that she feels better when she shower, and also she can clean the cookware more easily. I think it is because there are less white spots around.

I just installed the Futura-15 and everything seems to work well. I was afraid that such a large system might reduce the water pressure but I haven’t noticed any difference in the shower. The water does seem cleaner and softer on the skin but it’ll probably take a while for the scale to clear away. Will know in a few months and keep you posted.

No more hard water stains on our showers and sinks! Our skin and hair are already feeling the difference after one week, silky smooth. I wish this was in every home.

I like the fact that my FUTURA system does not waste any water at all during the treatment process. Since you guys are in California like me, you must know that we are going through one of the worst droughts the state has ever seen. Thanks for offering this eco-friendly alternative water softener.

I installed it myself in under a halve hour.I am totally pleased.

I cannot believe how well this Futura unit has worked for my home. I switched from salt softener to no salt and expected a lot more buildup because this unit is designed to crystallize the minerals and not actually remove it. However, even though there is visible buildup, it’s much less than prior to us owning a softener. My family is estatic for not ever have to buy salt again Yea!!
