At my parents house, we set up a whole-house water filtration system by repurposing water softeners. empty the guts of one, refill with aquarium supply activated carbon, then adjust the electronics to your liking and you're good to go. Those systems are designed to run 24/7 and soften/filter all the water going into your house.
