Common Hard Water Issues
Hard water prevents soap from lathering well, so you may notice soap scum in your sinks, showers, and tubs. The minerals in hard water also strip moisture from the skin and hair. If you have hard water, it can cause itching and dryness. Hard water can even worsen eczema symptoms.
You also need to consider the effects of hard water on your plumbing and appliances. Minerals can build up in dishwashers, water heaters, and evaporative coolers. As a result, hard water can reduce efficiency and cause these appliances to wear out faster.
Water Softener Installation Services
If you’re building a new home, we can install a whole-home water softener or water conditioning system during construction. Once you move in, you won’t have to worry about hard-water problems. We also replace outdated and broken water softeners. It may be time to replace your existing unit if it breaks down frequently or is more than 10 years old.
During the installation process, we shut off the main water valve. Then a technician cuts into the main supply line and connects the softener. We’ll also have to run a drain line to allow mineral-rich water to flow out of your plumbing system. Before we leave, we’ll make sure you understand how the system works.
