Yes but if the water softener is a capital improvement to your home before you converted to a rental, then you would add the cost of the unit to the cost basis in your house and use this higher cost basis as the basis in your rental for deprecation.

A "capital improvement" to your home, meaning the improvement must increase your home's value, adapt it to new uses, or extend its life. Examples of capital improvements are: adding a third bedroom, adding a garage, installing insulation, landscaping and more.
