When Would a Home Need a Water Softener System?

A water softener should not be confused with a water filtration system. While a whole home filtration system is an excellent option when dealing with harmful contaminants, water softeners do just what they sound like. A water softener conditions and strips hard minerals from your water. If your water quality results show high PPM (parts per million) levels of minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and zinc, you likely have hard water.

What Type of Maintenance Do Water Softener Systems Require?

Checking salt levels, cleaning the brine tank, and managing salt “bridges” are all common tasks that can be performed by the homeowner. However, if you are uncomfortable working with your system or it hasn’t been working the way it used to, we recommend calling a professional. Less common but serious issues such as iron fouling can occur and cause major problems for your home’s water quality if not dealt with quickly.

Do You Have Hard Water in Your Home?

Your water supply likely contains a measure of minerals like calcium, magnesium, and more. In small quantities, minerals are fine and can actually improve your water. However, depending on where you live and your water supply, too many minerals can cause hard water.

Signs of hard water include:

Soap scum buildup in showers and sinks
Dull lifeless hair and dry skin
Spotty, filmy dishes after washing
Reduced efficiency of appliances

What Others Say

I had a tree come down on the electric service between my house and the pole which not only severed the wire but also destroyed the service on the side of the house. I called Heritage and they dispatched Erik to assist me. He was prompt, courteous, and very knowledgeable, and repaired the damage quickly. Very satisfied, will call again if I need service in the future!

Justin was a gem. Fixed what others thought was too complicated (it was not). Reviewed other work that I need done- educated me on some safety features. Will use Heritage with no hesitation and hopefully Justin will do all my electrical work!

Called Saturday afternoon for an appointment for a leaky toilet in a rental property. Not an emergency, so he came out promptly Monday morning as agreed, gave a quick diagnosis, took care of the problem quickly. Heritage is pricey, but do you know how long it can take to get most plumbers to your door? Prompt service meant a lot of value-add in this situation.
