What Is a Water Softener and Why Do You Need One?

Hard water contains elevated levels of calcium and magnesium. While not hazardous to health, it wreaks havoc on plumbing systems, water heaters, faucets, and home appliances. It also dries out skin, fades laundry, and leaves mineral residue behind.

Installing a whole-house water softener in your Martinez-area home eliminates these issues by filtering out hardness minerals. The result? Softer, healthier water flowing from every tap.

Benefits of Water Softening

• Increases water heater and appliance efficiency
  
  
• Extends the life of your dishwasher, washing machine, and more
  
  
• Reduces soap and detergent usage
  
  
• Enhances skin and hair health
  
  
• Minimizes spotting on dishes and glassware
  
  
• Helps clothes stay brighter and softer
