Anyone have experience with this unit or others like it?

Yep -- I had one of these plus one of the "catalytic precious metal"
units installed in my house when I bought it. I had to replace all of
the toilets because they were scaled up so badly -- not a very good
testimonial for those things.

There's no practical way to install a conventional water softener in
our new house. We're looking at alternatives where no water
connection is required.

You are out of luck. All of these alternatives are nothing but quackery
designed to separate you from your money.

Yep, guess I'm doomed to hard water.

I really only wanted it for our dishwasher and clothes washer. I
personally don't like to bathe in soft water and we prefer to drink bottled
water.
