What Is Hard Water?
Nearly 85% of the United States is estimated to have hard water, which means the water has too much magnesium, calcium, and other minerals. It’s common in homes with municipal and well water supplies.
As the water flows through the tap, minerals build up on pipes, dishes, and laundry. The high mineral content also diminishes soap’s ability to lather, making your skin feel dry and your hair brittle after bathing.
Whole-Home Water Softener Installation & Replacement
If you have hard water, a whole-home water softener is the best solution. Len The Plumber Heating & Air will identify the ideal installation location, typically near the main water line and before the water reaches your water heater.
Our team will install the water softener and show you how to maintain the unit so you can enjoy:
- Longer-lasting pipes
- Cleaner dishes and clothes
- Healthier hair
- Smoother and softer skin
- And many other benefits
Whole-Home Water Softener Repair
You may need to repair or replace your water softener if you start noticing signs of hard water again, like:
- Soap scum on bathtubs or sinks
- Spotty dishes
- White residue on faucets and drains
- Low water pressure
- Rumbling noises from your water heater
When your water softener isn’t performing as it should, we’ll thoroughly inspect the unit and determine the appropriate repair. Our team can clear blockages and clogs, replace faulty valves, remove salt bridges, replace resin, and more.
Our team can also perform routine maintenance on your water softener. We can clean the brine tank, change filters, regenerate resin and flush resin beads, replace salt, and perform all manufacturer-recommended maintenance for your system.
