About Water Softeners and Filtration

Spots on glass, stiff laundry and scale on fixtures? Hard water is the likely culprit.

Hard water leaves white scale on faucets, spots on dishes and buildup inside water heaters and pipes. A softener or conditioner can reduce those effects.

We test your water, explain options, install the system with proper bypass and drain connections and show you how to maintain it.

Questions About Water Softeners and Filtration

Still have a question?

Call (629) 276-6322

How do I know if I have hard water?

White scale on fixtures, spots on glass and soap that does not lather well are signs. We can test it.

Is softened water safe to drink?

Softeners add a small amount of sodium. We explain options, including a separate drinking water filter.

Do softeners need a drain?

Yes, for regeneration, and we plan it.

Can I soften only part of the house?

Many people soften everything except outdoor taps. We plan the bypass.
