On the Go water softener

[OneReallyOldGuy]

The latest post about this product I can find is from 2011. I have two questions.
1; How much does it decrease the flow rate? That is a huge problem for me at a lot of parks.
2; Is it necessary to continue to use the whole house water filter behind this unit?
As always, thanks for your input.

It does reduce the flow, but not much in my opinion. I run the filter ahead of the softner and would not be without either.

Thanks. I’ll give it a try.

Quick follow up. Does the softened water make your shower slippery?
Thanks,

No, just softer.

I also run the water first thru the filters, then thru the softener then to the rest of the coach. I hard plumbed the units in the basement but am still able to access the softener to regenerate and the filters to swap out.

Not at all
