Benefits of Whole-Home Water Softeners
Hard water is a common problem affecting households throughout Paramus. Although hard water isn’t harmful if used or ingested, it can be an inconvenience to your daily routine. Problems include stains on your sink or toilet, dry or itchy skin, and clothes that dull quickly after washing.
Hard water can also affect your plumbing system. The minerals in your water (magnesium and calcium deposits) can cause scaling in your water lines, which can result in low water pressure and blockages. Minerals from hard water can also settle in your water heater tank and cause inconsistent water temperatures.
A professionally installed water softener will allow you to enjoy immediate benefits, including:
- Reduced risk of blocked water lines and other plumbing problems
- Healthier looking hair and skin after showering or bathing
- Clothes look bright after washing and won’t dull as easily
- Extended appliance life (due to less scaling)
- Cleaner glassware and dishes (no more hard water stains)
Water Softeners vs. Water Conditioners
Many customers who are interested in water softeners are also curious about water conditioners, which are salt-free alternatives. Both systems are effective at treating hard water; however, if you are looking to completely eliminate abrasive minerals from your water supply, we recommend installing a water softener.
Water softeners are designed to remove calcium and magnesium, and can help prevent scaling in your plumbing lines and appliances. As a result, households with a water softener installed won’t have to worry about scaling or stains. And while the water softening process involves salt-based technology, it won’t leave an overwhelmingly salty taste to your water.
The alternative solution—water conditioners—won’t completely remove minerals from your water, but instead treat your water so the minerals become less abrasive. While you will notice significant improvements with a water conditioner, scaling is still a possibility. However, many homeowners find water conditioners appealing since they require less maintenance compared to water softeners.
Our experts at J&C Plumbing and Sewer Service, Inc. will help you assess your needs, budget, and preferences and recommend the best type of water treatment system for your home.
Preparing Your Paramus Home for Water Softener Installation
Newer homes will often have a water softener loop installed during construction. This expedites the water softener installation process.
If you live in an older property that hasn’t been pre-plumbed for water softening equipment, we can easily provide you with the necessary upgrades, including additional pipe installations and bypass valves.
