Hard Water Solved
End hard water scale, protect your pipes and appliances, and enjoy softer skin and cleaner laundry.
Overview
Hard water is one of the most common water complaints in Florida. It is water loaded with calcium and magnesium, and while it is safe to drink, it leaves scale on your fixtures, shortens the life of your appliances, and makes soap and shampoo far less effective.
A water softener removes those hardness minerals before the water reaches your home, so you get cleaner dishes, softer laundry, better lather, and appliances that last longer.
We size and install the right softener for your household and your water, and we are here for service and salt questions long after the install.
The basics
Hard water forms as water moves through mineral rich ground and picks up calcium and magnesium. In much of Northeast Florida this happens naturally, which is why so many homes deal with scale and spotting.
The minerals are not harmful to drink, but they cause real problems over time. You see them as chalky buildup on faucets, cloudy spots on glassware, stiff laundry, dry skin and hair, and appliances that wear out sooner than they should.
How they work
A softener works through a simple process called ion exchange. As hard water passes through a tank filled with resin beads, the calcium and magnesium are captured and swapped for a small amount of sodium or potassium.
The result is soft water flowing to every tap in your home. The system automatically cleans and recharges the resin on a schedule, so it keeps working with very little effort from you.
