Signs You Need a Water Softener 

If your household water supply has elevated amounts of minerals like calcium and magnesium in it, you may have hard water. Hard water in itself is not something that’s dangerous, but there are some unpleasant side effects that most homeowners would rather avoid. Limescale, which refers to a white residue, can form on kitchen faucets, bathroom faucets, cooking utensils, and other plumbing fixtures that come into regular contact with your water. 

You may also notice that soap and shampoo don’t lather as easily, or your clothing might feel stiff and tough after you’ve done laundry. Some people also report having dry or brittle hair when they have hard water in the house. If you experience any of these signs, don’t hesitate to get in touch with us so we can come out and assess the situation.

FAQs

A water softener is a device that treats hard water by removing minerals, primarily calcium and magnesium ions, which can cause various issues in your plumbing, appliances, and daily routines. Here’s what a water softener does:

  • Ion Exchange: Water softeners use a process called ion exchange, where resin beads attract and remove calcium and magnesium ions from the water, replacing them with sodium or potassium ions.
  • Prevents Scale Buildup: Hard water minerals can form scale in pipes, faucets, and appliances. A water softener prevents this scale buildup, extending the lifespan of plumbing and appliances.
  • Improved Cleaning: Softened water improves soap lathering and reduces soap scum, making cleaning more effective.
  • Efficient Appliances: Softened water helps appliances like water heaters and dishwashers work more efficiently, leading to energy savings.
  • Softer Skin and Hair: Softened water can lead to smoother skin and shinier hair due to reduced mineral buildup.

Installing a water softener can provide numerous benefits by addressing the challenges associated with hard water, promoting efficient water use, and prolonging the life of plumbing and appliances.

Drinking water from a water softener system can be safe for most people, but there are a few considerations to keep in mind:

  • Sodium Content: Water softeners replace calcium and magnesium ions with sodium or potassium ions. If you’re on a sodium-restricted diet, you might want to consider the sodium content in the softened water.
  • Taste: Some people find that softened water has a slightly different taste due to the added sodium or potassium ions.
  • Mineral Intake: Softened water might have reduced levels of calcium and magnesium, which are important minerals for bone health. If you rely on your water as a source of these minerals, you might need to supplement your diet.
  • Health Conditions: If you have specific health conditions or concerns, it’s a good idea to consult a healthcare professional regarding the suitability of softened water for your needs.

In most cases, softened water is safe to drink. However, if you have specific health considerations, it’s wise to consult a healthcare provider before making a decision.

The best water softener to buy depends on your specific water quality, household size, budget, and preferences. Consider the following factors:

  • Water Quality: Test your water to identify the hardness level and other contaminants. This will help determine the appropriate size and type of water softener.
  • Capacity: Choose a water softener with the right capacity to meet your household’s water usage needs.
  • Type: There are salt-based and salt-free water softeners. Salt-based systems are more effective for higher hardness levels, while salt-free systems are suitable for moderate hardness.
  • Brand and Reviews: Research reputable brands and read user reviews to gauge performance and reliability.
  • Budget: Determine your budget and consider ongoing maintenance costs.
  • Warranty and Support: Check for warranties and the availability of customer support.

Consulting with a water treatment professional can help you select the best water softener for your specific requirements, ensuring efficient performance and optimal water quality for your household.

While a water softener primarily addresses issues related to hard water, it indirectly offers several health benefits:

  • Softer Skin and Hair: Softened water reduces mineral buildup, leading to smoother skin and shinier hair.
  • Better Hydration: Some people find softened water more pleasant to drink due to its improved taste and reduced mineral content.
  • Reduced Irritation: Softened water can be gentler on sensitive skin, reducing dryness and irritation.
  • Cleaner Laundry: Softened water improves the effectiveness of detergents, resulting in cleaner and softer clothes.
  • Longer Appliance Lifespan: Softened water reduces scale buildup in appliances like water heaters, extending their lifespan and efficiency.
  • Energy Savings: Appliances like water heaters and dishwashers work more efficiently with softened water, potentially leading to energy savings.

While these benefits can contribute to overall well-being, it’s important to balance them with factors like sodium intake and potential mineral deficiencies. Consultation with a healthcare professional can help determine the suitability of softened water for your specific health needs.

    Water heater needed to be replaced as well as hot water line. Bath tub was replaced with stand up shower as well as sink faucet and plumbing. Mana was a solid guy came early, worked late what should have been a three man job Mana did by himself. He even dry walled. Solid job by one solid brahdah.

    Mel Decasa
    Had leaking kitchen faucet with a large sink that needed a professional. Initially the online request sent a confirmation that someone would contact me, but since nobody did, I called, and received an apology, along with the person confirming that it would be noted that the online feature didn't file my request.The next available appointment was 2 days later, though I was put on priority wait list. The next day I got a call that there was an opening, and Teran gave thorough inspection and explanation. I asked if I could add on another sink that was leaking, and Teran said there would be no problem. He also asked if he could inspect the rest of the house. He provided 3 estimates, with the lowest being just for the kitchen faucet. We chose to fix just the Kitchen, though it was helpful to have an assessment of potential problems to watch for. Teran was efficient, friendly, informative, and considerate. We need more like him.
    armando barreiro
    Great service and even better customer service. Tyi was great.
    Kamu Rā
    Tarin did an amazing job. He exceeded our expectation. The resident manager and I (homeowner) appreciated his positive attitude and professionalism. He explained everything to detail and had visuals (pictures) to go along with it. Would highly recommend Tarin working on any job.
    Candace Goo
    Customer service was excellent and someone was able to come by the day I called. Jai was thorough and worked quickly to meet our needs. He did an amazing job and was very easy to work with.
    Lance Moriwaki
    Kai was on time, friendly, professional, and knowledgable.He took the time to explain necessary things, but did not take too long for the overhaul job to be completed. He seemed genuinely happy to be helping me out with my plumbing.
    Chase Conching
    Jai and the entire All Aloha Plumbing group were friendly and professional from day one. They were able to come out on short notice, give me three estimates (with good, better, best options) and perform all the work needed within a 72-hour timespan. No other company I reached out to was able to do that. AAP provided fair and transparent prices, and was even willing to guarantee their work for a much longer time period than their competition. I would highly recommend Jai and the All Aloha Plumbing crew for peace of mind that your plumbing issues will get fixed, for good.
    Jeffrey Acebedo
    All Aloha Plumbing responded to my request on yelp. Heather helped me schedule my appt. Stephanie did a follow up call. My technician Jai was very professional and knowledgeable on my toilet repair, he explained & showed the damages of the toilet. Jai did an excellent job from start to finish. Thank You.
    Diane Shito
    Ty was very helpful and professional. He did excellent work and was very thorough. Very considerate in keeping in mind with my budget. I will definitely recommend All Aloha Plumbing and will definitely call Ty for all my plumbing repairs.
    Dean Yamaguchi
    Ty and Joe were the technicians on the visit. They assessed the problem of a non-draining bathroom sink and while the initial estimate given to clean out the drain was acceptable, they adjusted the charges to reflect time spent to clean the drain which was a pleasant surprise! Also gave a kupuna discount which was also great. Drain runs well now. Guys were on time within the window given and did a great job!
    Emma Toilolo
    Called Saturday, spoke to Stephanie who helped me schedule my repair visit for Monday (only day available because of work) with Ty. Kept me informed and follow up with a call and an email. Tech Ty arrived, assessed the work I wanted/needed done, gave me options and started on the job asap. Replaced old pressure regulator (which was running high) and replaced the old corroded shower water valve (American Standard-no longer available). All done in one day!!Note: developers (Gentry) built with low grade pipes that becomes brittle over time. Ty had to do more than a simple job, putting more doable pipe and connectors. We are at peace knowing the job is done right with warranty to back the work.Mahalo! All Aloha Plumbing, Stephanie and Ty!! Job well done!!
    Kazu Okumura
    Jai was prompt and diagnosed the issue right away. Drain was cleaned in under an hour. Very professional and will call again for future plumbing issues.
