Hard water can be more than just a nuisance—it can take a toll on plumbing, appliances, and even skin and hair. From the limescale stains on faucets to the itchy, dry skin after a shower, the effects of hard water accumulate over time. We at GNG Plumbing, Inc. install whole house water softeners that eliminate all of these issues, sending cleaner, healthier water to all of the household taps.
Why a Whole House Water Softener Makes a Difference
Hard water is laden with minerals like calcium and magnesium that build up in pipes and stain fixtures and make household tasks more difficult. A whole house water softener removes those minerals before they enter the plumbing system, offering benefits like:
- Softer skin and hair – Hard water steals moisture, drying out skin and causing hair to become brittle. Softened water enables natural hydration retention.
- Spot-free dishes and glassware – No chalky residue or streaks left behind after washing.
- Longer appliance life – Water heaters, dishwashers, and washing machines run more efficiently without the mineral buildup.
- Cleaner, brighter laundry – Softened water allows detergent to work better, so clothes don't become stiff and dingy.
- Fewer plumbing issues – Scale buildup in pipes and fixtures leads to clogs and costly repairs.
Signs It's Time to Install a Water Softener
Hard water may not be obvious, but some warning signs indicate it's causing trouble:
- Soap and shampoo don't lather normally
- White, chalky deposits on faucets and showerheads
- Rough clothing or dull-looking clothes after washing
- Frequent plumbing repairs due to scale buildup
- Dry, itchy skin after showering or bathing
If any of these sound familiar, our technicians at GNG Plumbing, Inc. can test the water and recommend the right solution to improve quality and performance.
Choosing the Right Water Softener
Not all water softeners are equal, and every home has its own unique needs. We at GNG Plumbing, Inc. offer a couple of different options to suit various water conditions and individual preferences:
- Classic salt-based softeners – The most effective choice for removing hard minerals completely and preventing scale.
- Salt-free water conditioners – Reduction of scale without adding sodium to the water, an excellent choice for those who prefer an alternative to salt-based systems.
- Dual-tank softeners – Provide continuous soft water, even during regeneration cycles, for uninterrupted water treatment.
- Address - Our personnel take the time to assess water hardness levels, home usage, and budgets to help homeowners choose the best system.
