Benefits of Water Softeners in the Bay Area, California

You might be wondering, “Why does hard water matter? Why do I need a whole-house water softener?” Hard water builds up mineral deposits in your plumbing, making your home’s systems work harder to get water where it needs to be. This added difficulty strains your plumbing, causing more issues down the line.

More benefits of installing a whole-house water softener include:

No more spots on your glassware and dishes.
Hair and skin feel softer, and smoother after showering.
Minimizes soap scum, making cleaning easier.
Easier to lather soaps/shampoos.
Clothes look brighter and cleaner out of the laundry.
Extends life of appliances that use water, such as coffeemakers and dishwashers.

Our experienced, factory-trained, and respectful technicians will help you through the process and ensure the correct system is in place for your needs.

How Much Maintenance Is Involved?

Whole-house water softeners last 10 to 15 years and require little maintenance. These appliances let your water flow into a tank containing sodium-rich resin beads, which remove the hard water minerals from your water to ensure a clean water supply for your sinks, showers, and tubs.

To give you an overview of what maintenance is involved:

Rock salt should be added to the unit on a regular basis, depending on how much water softener is used. Most units feature an alert light that will let you know when the machine is running low on salt.

The water softener system needs to be cleaned at least once a year. This can be done during your annual plumbing maintenance.

At Chris Wilson Plumbing & Heating Repairs Inc, we make water softener maintenance easy by including this in your yearly plumbing inspection. Our experienced plumbers can inspect your water softener for any issues to keep it running smoothly and supply clean, soft water to your Monterey home.

Signs You Need a Whole-House Water Softener

Nearly 85% of water in the USA is hard. Hard water affects the water’s taste and cleaning power, and even how well your soap works. Hard water contains minerals such as magnesium or calcium, which leave a residue on your sink or dishes, even when they’re clean. Other signs that you have hard water and could benefit from whole-house water softeners include:

Limestone build-up on fixtures and appliances

Dry or itchy skin

Stains on glassware

Gradual or sudden decrease in water pressure
