Water Softener Repair FAQs

  • A water softener eliminates calcium and magnesium from your water by passing it through a mineral tank filled with resin beads charged with sodium ions. Through ion exchange, calcium and magnesium are attracted to the resin, while sodium ions enter the water without making it taste salty. The brine tank of salt rejuvenates the resin beads with more sodium ions.

  • Typically, water softeners last between 10 and 15 years. However, with proper maintenance, a quality unit can endure up to 20 years. To extend the lifespan of your water softener:

    • Use only evaporated salt in the tank
    • Regularly flush the resin bed
    • Clean the venturi valve biannually inside and out

  • To determine the right size for your water softener, do as follows:

    • Obtain a water test indicating your grains per gallon (GPG) hardness value.
    • Calculate daily household water usage either from your bill or by multiplying occupants by 75 gallons daily.
    • Multiply “daily water use x GPG value x 7” to determine weekly grain filtration needs.
    • Choose a softener rated for that amount or higher.

  • Count on Mr. Rooter® Plumbing of Detroit to promptly and efficiently restore your water softener’s functionality.
