In most states, such as Florida, water tends to have a very high concentration of calcium, magnesium, and iron. This is commonly called 'hard water' and washing your vehicle with it will lead to water spots and calcification on exposed metals, which in time can lead to corrosion. This water filter, which is really not as expensive as most water softeners, both filters and softens the water so it allows you to wash your ride with a much purer water. Contrary to common belief softened water does not damage metals (as confirmed by a recent EPA report), but it definitely ensures you slow the aging process of your car or bike. After washing you will get very few/no water spots and no calcification and you can let your vehicle dry by itself, which I find very convenient.
If you've invested in your ride, you should definitely consider having this. Bought it to wash my big-rig touring bike and it works extremely well. It's also very well built, which I think speaks volumes to the overall quality of the product.
My tap water is horrible for washing vehicles. Even if I tried to dry the sections as I washed them, I still ended up with nasty white water spots that would not wipe off. I was thrilled when I found this system and ordered one. As soon as it got here I hooked it up and tested it by washing my black truck. It's paint is showing it's age and my water is so hard that I don't think it's possible to not have spots if air dried. However, now when I wipe off the big drops my truck is spot free which I never would have thought possible. If I do let it air dry, now the spots will wipe off which was never possible before. Now I'm left with a smooth shiny black surface that's ready to wax. It's a little pricey but well worth it if you own 5 vehicles and have nasty hard tap water! We'll see how long the thrill lasts before I no longer want to wash everything in sight :)
