You likely need a water softener if you see scale buildup on faucets, glassware spots that won’t go away, soap that won’t lather, dry skin and hair after showers, dingy laundry, or short water-heater life. Hard water above 7 grains per gallon (gpg) damages every appliance in the home over time.
Common hard-water signs
- White scale on faucets, showerheads, and glassware
- Soap doesn’t lather well
- Dry skin and hair
- Stiff or dingy laundry
- Water heater inefficiency or short life
- Frequent appliance failures
We test water hardness for free at the appointment, then recommend the right system through water softener service, water conditioning, or whole-home filtration.
