Kinetico
Water Softeners
5 Star Water Solutions is a proud authorized independent Kinetico dealer for Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge, Guelph, and Brantford. Kinetico has been building Non-Electric Water Softeners for over 50 years and remains the benchmark for reliability and efficiency in the residential water treatment industry.
The Kinetico Difference
-
Non-Electric Operation
Kinetico Water Softeners use the Kinetic Energy of moving water to power your Water Softener. With no circuit boards or timers, this non-electric model eliminates the additional expense on your electric bill.
-
Metered Regeneration
Kinetico Water Softeners use a Metered Regeneration System which tracks actual water usage, regenerating only when needed. This reduces the amount of wasted salt and wasted energy, with its watch-like-precision automatically adjusts to your water needs.
-
Soft Water Rinse
Kinetico Water Softeners use soft water to clean the resin in the units, reducing the amount of salt the system uses and ensuring the resin lasts longer, prolonging the system's life well past other brands.
-
Counter-Current Regeneration
Unlike most Water Softeners, Kinetico Water Softeners reverse the flow of water during regeneration relative to the service direction. This preserves the cleanest portion of the resin for final polishing and reduces salt and water consumption compared to conventional downflow systems, prolonging the life of the unit.

The Premier Series is Kinetico's flagship residential Water Softener and includes everything you need for a worry-free installation.

It can also reverse inlet and outlet flow for a cleaner, more flexible installation.

CP Series
The CP Series brings Kinetico's proven twin-tank, non-electric reliability to commercial applications. The demand-operated valve regenerates based on actual water use, not a timer, so your business saves on salt and wastewater while maintaining consistent soft water output.

Counter-current regeneration preserves resin integrity and reduces the frequency of maintenance downtime.
