Overview
The OTG4-VM-DBLSOFT is On The Go's double-tank portable water softener, rated for 16,000 grains and built for RV and trailer plumbing rather than a house. Fittings are brass and rated safe for a drinking water line, and the unit is assembled by workers in Indiana rather than imported.
On The Go states plainly what this unit is not: it will not fit under a kitchen sink and is not meant to feed an apartment, condo, or house shower. That single line does more to set expectations than any spec, since it steers buyers who need a fixed home softener toward a different product entirely.
- 16,000 grain rated softening capacity
- Drinking-water-safe brass fittings
- Double-tank portable design for RVs
- Assembled by US workers in Indiana
Who it's for
RV owners and full-time trailer campers who need soft water at hookups or fill stations belong here. Anyone shopping for a permanent kitchen or bathroom softener should keep looking, since the listing rules that use out directly.
Pros and cons
- Brass fittings rated safe for a drinking water connection
- Compact double-tank build sized for RV storage bays
- Assembled in the US rather than imported
- Not rated for apartment, condo, or house shower plumbing
- Will not fit a standard under-sink installation
Performance notes
The unit pairs two standard-capacity resin tanks to reach its 16,000 grain rating, and softening works the same way any ion-exchange softener does: calcium and magnesium in the incoming water swap for sodium as it passes through the resin bed, with the brass fittings keeping the output safe to drink at the tap.
