Water softening for homes involves removing hard water minerals like calcium and magnesium through ion exchange, preventing scale buildup and improving soap efficiency.

At PlumbX, we install water softeners tailored to your home’s water hardness, typically under the sink or in the basement. We use ion exchange systems where hard water passes through a resin bed, exchanging calcium and magnesium for sodium or potassium ions, thus softening the water. Our systems are designed for ease of maintenance, with regeneration cycles that can be set to occur automatically based on water usage. This not only prevents scale buildup in pipes, appliances, and fixtures but also enhances the effectiveness of soaps and detergents, improves skin and hair feel, and extends the life of your household appliances. We ensure the system is sized correctly for your home size and water usage patterns, offering both salt-based and salt-free options to cater to different preferences and environmental considerations.
