Can a plumber test my home’s water hardness?

Yes, our plumbers offer comprehensive water testing services that measure hardness levels and identify additional concerns like iron, sediment, or mineral content. Testing helps determine the right water treatment solution for your specific home and water usage needs!

Why does my water softener smell bad?

A musty or unpleasant smell can develop from bacteria buildup in the brine tank or stagnant water inside the system. Cleaning and sanitizing the unit usually resolves the issue. Routine maintenance from our team also helps prevent odors from returning.

Is it worth installing a water softener if I already use filtered drinking water?

Drinking water filters and water softeners solve different problems, so most homes do benefit from having both. A filter improves taste and removes contaminants from drinking water, while a softener protects your plumbing, appliances, fixtures, and skin from hard water minerals throughout the entire home.

Why does my softened water still feel slippery?

That slick feeling is actually normal, but can be surprising after a water softener installation. Softened water contains fewer hard minerals, so soap rinses differently than you may be used to. Most people notice cleaner dishes, softer laundry, and less scale buildup once they adjust to the change.

How often should a water softener be serviced?

Most water softeners should be professionally inspected about once a year. In the Sioux Falls region, hard water levels can put extra strain on systems, especially during periods of heavy household water use. Regular water softener maintenance helps catch issues early and keeps the system operating efficiently.

Why is my water softener running constantly?

A softener that seems to regenerate too often could have a programming issue, a stuck valve, salt bridging, or even a hidden plumbing leak that increases water demand. When you notice this problem, call our team - we can inspect the system and determine whether it needs repairs, adjustments, or replacement parts.

Without a Water Softener, You Risk…

The high concentrations of minerals in our water often collect throughout our homes’ water systems, building up on the interior of pipes and appliances where the damage can’t be seen. Once the minerals start to line the interior of your pipes, they restrict water flow and make drain clogs more likely. Throughout the Sioux Falls area, water softeners condition your water to remove heavy minerals, preventing buildup inside your pipes and reducing the risk of needing your whole house repiped.
Hard water also affects all your water-using appliances, just like the heavy minerals collect in your pipes. Dishwashers, refrigerators, washing machines, and anything else that uses water will feel the effects of water lines clogged with mineral buildup. This leads to poor performance and frequent repairs or even replacements, costing you a pretty penny. Keep your home’s appliances and fixtures working like they should with a whole-house water softener installation in Sioux Falls and the surrounding communities!
Beyond the long-term health of your plumbing and appliances, hard water impacts your health and comfort every day. The high mineral content of the water from the Big Sioux River causes several problems that increase the irritation and discomfort in our lives. From scratchy fabrics and spots or film on clean dishes to itchy skin, brittle hair, and even digestive issues for those with sensitive stomachs, hard water affects every aspect of life at home. Contact our expert plumbers today to protect your comfort with a Sioux Falls water softener system.
