Water Softener FAQs

How often should a softener be serviced?

Most systems benefit from annual maintenance. Hard‑water areas may require more frequent checks.

Why does my water taste salty?

Excessive salt in the brine tank or a stuck valve can cause salty water. Maintenance will correct the problem.

When should I replace the resin bed?

Resin typically lasts 10–15 years. Reduced softening capacity or high iron levels can shorten this lifespan.

Can I maintain my softener myself?

You can add salt, but professional service ensures valves and timers operate correctly.

Do you offer salt delivery?

Yes. Salt delivery can be added to your maintenance plan.

What’s the benefit of soft water?

Soft water reduces mineral build‑up in pipes and appliances, improves soap lathering and prevents spots on dishes.
