Reconditioned Domestic Water Softeners
Where do they come from?
Our reconditioned systems are generally trade-ins or ex-rental units
which have become available because the original user changed or
upgraded their system. Maybe because of a house move, a new kitchen
or a change in the size of the household. Or because the owner just
fancied upgrading to a newer system with features not available
on the older unit.
What condition are they in?
We take the process of re-conditioning our water softeners and other
equipment very seriously. It's not a quick check and a wipe with
a damp cloth!
Only models which meet our strict criteria of age, condition and
quality are deemed suitable. Every unit is completely disassembled
to component level, all wear parts and seals replaced with new,
and everything cleaned, lubricated and re-assembled. All water softeners
over three years old have the ion exchange resin replaced as a matter
of policy. We have an exhaustive testing procedure and a 47 point
check which must be passed before the machine is given a new serial
number and declared ready for sale. It's then packed for transit
with new hoses and installation kit, a user manual (which may be
a photocopy) and warranty registration card. Although there may
be cosmetic imperfections consistent with their prior use, we expect
our reconditioned units to peform perfectly and give many years
of reliable service.
What's the guarantee?
We offer our own "cast iron" return-to-base warranty for
12 months against mechanical defects.
How
much do they cost?
The cost depends on the age, make and model. A top brand single
cylinder domestic softener, say 8 or 10 years old, with an electro-mechanical
timer
control will cost around £270.00 including vat. This makes
an economical yet high quality alternative to a new machine from
a budget range made with much poorer quality components. A newer
machine, say between 3 and 5 years old would typically cost around
60% of it's original price, say upto £600 or so depending
on the exact age and model. For many this is an excellent way of
acquiring a top quality water softener whilst saving hundreds of
pounds.
Please contact us with your requirements, we're happy to tell you
what's available or to let you know when something suitable arrives.
