[ residential system ]Whole-Home Water Filtration & Softening in Nashville, TN
One system for your entire home, built around what's actually in your water. Softening, filtration, and purification, working together instead of as separate add-ons.
[ WHAT’S IN YOUR WATER ] Is Nashville’s Water Hard?
Nashville's municipal supply draws from the Cumberland River and runs moderately hard, typically in the 5–9 grains-per-gallon range. If you're on a private well, especially in the surrounding Middle Tennessee counties, hardness can run significantly higher, since much of the region's groundwater moves through limestone.
Signs You May Need a Softener
White, chalky buildup on faucets, dishes, and shower door
Appliances wearing out faster than they should
Dry skin, dull hair, soap that won't lather
Not sure if what you’re seeing is hardness or something else entirely? That’s exactly what a free water test can help you determine.
Which System Solves Your Problem?
Scale, spots, and dry skin ⤷ A salt-based ion exchange water softener removes the calcium and magnesium causing hardness. Unlike salt-free conditioners that simply reduce the effects of hardness, a true ion exchange softener actually removes hardness minerals from your water.
Chlorine or chloramine taste and smell⤷ Whole-home filtration reduces chlorine, chloramine, sediment, and odor from every tap in your house, not just the kitchen sink.
On well water, dealing with iron, sulfur, or bacteria⤷ Well water often requires specialized treatment designed around the specific contaminants in your water. Depending on your water quality, treatment may include filtration, oxidation, or UV disinfection to provide cleaner, safer water throughout your home.
Concerns about PFAS or other contaminants⤷ Reverse osmosis drinking systems target what filtration alone can't, giving you the cleanest water at the tap.
One Important Distinction:
Salt-free conditioners and true water softeners aren't the same thing. Conditioners can help manage scale, but they don't actually remove hardness minerals from your water the way an ion-exchange softener does. If eliminating hardness is the goal, a true softener is the only system built to do it.

Whole-Home Water Filtration & Softening, in One System
Dual-Media Water Filtration and Softening Systems
Available in 10" × 54" and 13" × 54" configurations, this is what a true whole house water filter and softener looks like: activated carbon filtration and ion-exchange softening, combined in one efficient system. Carbon reduces chlorine and improves water quality, while the softening resin removes calcium and magnesium (the minerals responsible for hard water). System size is selected based on your home's water usage and demand.
Continuous Soft Water for High-Demand Home
Twin-Tank Dual-Media Water Filtration and
Softening System
Designed for high-volume homes and demanding water usage, our twin-tank system combines carbon filtration and ion-exchange softening with two tanks for continuous access to treated, softened water. An ideal solution for larger households that need consistent water treatment performance.
Protection for Well Water, Without Chemicals
UV Disinfection Systems for Well Water
UV disinfection provides an added layer of protection for homes on private wells. Ultraviolet light helps neutralize bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms, with no chemicals added to your water.
Cleaner, Clearer, Better-Smelling Well Water
AIO Iron & Sulfur Systems for Well Water
Air-injection oxidation (AIO) systems are designed to treat common well water problems such as iron, sulfur, and unpleasant odors. These systems use oxidation to convert and filter targeted contaminants, helping deliver cleaner, clearer, better-smelling water throughout the home.
Soft Water, Even in Tight Spaces
Cabinet Series Water Softeners
Compact, efficient salt-based ion-exchange water softeners designed for homes with limited space. Cabinet-style systems remove calcium and magnesium (the minerals responsible for hard water) while providing an efficient, streamlined solution for whole-home water softening.
High-Capacity Filtration, Small Footprint
Big Blue Carbon Filters
High-capacity carbon filtration in a compact footprint, making Big Blue systems a great option for homes with limited space. Large-format carbon cartridges help reduce chlorine, sediment, and other targeted contaminants, depending on the selected filter media, while providing an efficient whole-home water filtration solution.
The Cleanest Water at Your Tap
Reverse Osmosis Drinking Water Systems
Advanced multi-stage drinking water purification that treats water at the tap for cleaner, better-tasting drinking and cooking water. Our RO systems reduce a wide range of contaminants, with select systems re-mineralizing and alkalizing the water with calcium, magnesium, and potassium.
[ INVESTMENT ] What Affects Your Price?
Every home has different water needs, so your water treatment system is sized and designed specifically for your household. Several factors can affect the total investment:
Square Footage
Number of Occupants
Number of Bathrooms
Systems Selected
Your Water Quality
The only way to get an accurate number is a free in-home water test, which is exactly why we start there.
[ RESIDENTIAL ]Frequently Asked
Questions
-
Yes, if your goal is drinking water quality. A softener removes hardness minerals, but it doesn't target chlorine taste, sediment, or contaminants the way reverse osmosis does. Many homes run both: a softener for the whole house, RO for the kitchen tap.
-
Most systems last 10 to 15 years with proper maintenance. Regular salt refills, resin care, and periodic service all help your system go the distance.
-
No. Salt-free conditioners can help manage scale, but they don't actually remove hardness minerals from your water. If eliminating hardness is the goal, a true ion-exchange softener is the only system built to do it.
-
The vast majority of our customers in Middle Tennessee choose dual-media whole-home filtration and softening because both are essential for better water.
Filtration alone leaves hard-water minerals that damage plumbing and appliances while contributing to dry skin and dull hair.
Softening alone leaves chlorine and other contaminants in your water. Chlorine also breaks down softening resin, shortening its lifespan.
After testing thousands of homes across Middle Tennessee, CLR WTR Solutions knows exactly what our local water needs. That’s why we offer a custom dual-media system specifically designed for Middle Tennessee water, proudly made in the USA by Nelsen Corporation.
-
It depends on your home's size, water quality, and which systems you need. Since every setup is different, the only way to get an accurate number is a free in-home water test.
-
A softener removes hardness minerals (calcium and magnesium). Whole-house filtration reduces chlorine, sediment, and odor. They solve different problems, which is why we treat them as separate systems that can work together, not one product doing both jobs.
