#1
Best Overall (Up to 7 PPM)

Springwell WF1

  • Bluetooth app + lifetime warranty

For iron above 7 PPM, look at heavy-duty katalox-media systems (SoftPro Iron Master handles up to 30 PPM). For iron below 3 PPM without sulfur, the Fleck 5600SXT softener handles incidental iron removal without a dedicated iron filter.
