      Frequently Asked Questions

      Where does the ICS system go in my home?

      Where it can fit, and where it can easily get access to your home's water source. This is typically a garage, crawlspace, or even a closet. If you have questions a plumber would be able to help you find the best spot. During maintenance you'll need to fit a bucket and have enough space to turn the sump wrench which comes with your system

      How often do I replace the filters?

      Most people replace their filters once per year, or sooner if they start seeing issues with their water again. Learn about water issues here

      A good alternate to the Nuvo H2O

      I switched to the Cascadian filter because everytime I change the cartridge on my Nuvo H2O, it gives me a bluish water for at least 2 weeks before it flushes out. Probably it is normal until the contents get activated and flushed. However to me having to consume that as potable water is a concern regardless how reassuring on the negative effect on health. Since replaced it with the Cascadian filter because it fits exactly on the Nuvo cannister. No more green/bluish water and the taste is great. However, the Cascadian being a combination of soft water treatment as well as a filter cartirdge I wonder whether the 1 year lifespan is valid. I'll wait and see how effective it is down the road as it near the 1 year mark. For now, I'm satisfied and vouch for it.

      Thank you so much for the fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear that our ICS-SP1222K is working well for you and that you're enjoying the taste of your water without any blue or green discoloration.

      You raise a great point about the blue water you experienced with the Nuvo H2O system. That discoloration is often caused by the citric acid in those filters reacting with copper plumbing, which can be a concern for some homeowners. Our PolyHalt® technology uses a different approach to softening, avoiding the use of citric acid and minimizing the risk of copper leaching.

      We appreciate your observation about the filter lifespan. While our filters are designed to last for one year under normal conditions, factors like water usage and quality can influence their longevity. We're confident that you'll continue to enjoy great-tasting, clear water with the ICS-SP1222K, and we're always here to answer any questions you may have as you approach the one-year mark.

      I replaced my Nuvo Manor Filter with the Cascadian Polyhalt filter and it totally solved my problem.

      The Nuevo did not work because my PH was too low ( 6.3).
      The Polyhalt is great! No hard water residue or water spots on the glass or fixtures!
      I’m very pleased with this product!

      We're so glad to hear that the ICS-SP1242K solved your hard water problems and is working better for you than the Nuvo Manor filter! It's fantastic that you're no longer experiencing hard water residue or water spots – those can be such a nuisance.

      It sounds like the PolyHalt® technology in our filter is a great fit for your water chemistry, especially with the lower pH level you mentioned. We're happy that you're pleased with the product and confident that you'll continue to enjoy the benefits of clean, soft water with the ICS-SP1242K. Thanks for sharing your positive experience!

      Simply The Best, Better Than All The Rest

      I'm not given to writing reviews since every time we purchase anything the nagging to do so begins. But this review I want to write. Since moving to New Mexico 15 years ago I have purchased various water softening systems: salt, potassium, citrus and a few electromagnetic devices that attach to the pipes. None of them were to my liking. And then I discovered Cascadian Water. I was able to keep the housings from my last system, the NUVO, which was useless, and just replace the cartridges with Cascadians. What followed was more than surprising. There was a definite change in the quality, the feel, the taste of the water, as well as the minimalizing of deposits on everything that comes in contact with water. I replace the cartridges once a year which takes a very short time and little effort. And an important factor is Cascadian is eco-friendly. I recommend Cascasdian Water without any reservations.

      Thank you for the enthusiastic 5-star review! We're overjoyed to hear that your Cascadian Water filters have transformed your water experience and are outperforming other systems you've tried.

      It's especially gratifying to know that you appreciate our eco-friendly approach. Providing solutions that benefit both our customers and the environment is a core value for us.

      Your heartfelt recommendation means the world to us, and we look forward to continuing to provide you with the best water possible!
