Hard water is water that is high in minerals like calcium, magnesium, and carbonate. It can happen with both city and well water, and takes a huge toll on your home, clogging up your appliances, creating spotty dishes, leaving your skin dry and your clothes dull and scratchy. Softeners remove unwanted contaminants before your water even travels through your pipes, into your water-using appliances, or before you switch on the taps of your bathrooms and kitchen. Giving you softened, mineral-free water to every room in your home. Contact us for a free estimate on a new water softener for your home or business!

Most municipalities don’t soften water in a central location before providing it to your home. This unsoftened water can cause a buildup of minerals, also called “scale” and can harm the efficiency and lifetime of your water-using appliances and fixtures. Even if your municipality is using surface water, reservoirs, or lake water you may need a softener to help reduce the buildup of minerals in your home. Your local water pro will be able to test and verify if you’ll need a softener to reduce or remove extra minerals from your water supply.

Softening water involves something called “ion exchange” to remove dissolved minerals such as calcium, magnesium, iron, and manganese—particles that can’t be trapped in a filter bed. To remove these particles, softening systems contain hundreds of resin beads charged with sodium. As water enters the tank, dissolved calcium and magnesium are attracted to the resin, forcing the resin to exchange its sodium for the dissolved chemicals, and freeing the water of impurities. Filtering water removes impurities using either physical barriers, chemical processes, or biological processes. Each method cleanses water to a varying degree to suit specific water uses like drinking water, irrigation, aquariums, ponds, and swimming pools. Your local Hellenbrand water pro can help determine the best solution for your specific water profile and application.
