Understanding Water Softener Issues

Water softeners are essential for removing minerals like calcium and magnesium from your water supply, preventing scale buildup in your plumbing fixtures and appliances. However, like any mechanical system, water softeners can experience issues over time. From simple maintenance tasks to more complex repairs, addressing these issues promptly is crucial to ensure your water softener operates efficiently and effectively.

Regular maintenance is recommended every 6-12 months to ensure optimal performance. However, if you notice any issues such as decreased water flow or salt buildup, it’s best to schedule a service call promptly.

Several factors could cause this issue, including a malfunctioning valve, clogged resin bed, or incorrect settings. Our technicians can diagnose the problem and recommend the necessary repairs.
