Common Water Softener Problems
- Salt bridging: This is a common issue where a hard crust forms in the brine tank, preventing your water softener from regenerating properly.
- Resin bed problems: The resin in your softener can become foul or exhausted. Regularly cleaning the resin bed, or replacing it when necessary, can restore your water softener’s efficiency.
- Iron or manganese fouling: These minerals can coat the resin beads, reducing their effectiveness. Using a mineral cleaner designed for your water softener can help remove these deposits, keeping your system running efficiently.
- Motor and valve malfunctions: These mechanical components can wear out. Regular maintenance checks by our team can keep these parts in working order and help spot potential issues early.
- Incorrect salt levels: Too much or too little salt can affect your water softener’s performance.
- A clogged injector or venturi: These parts can become blocked with sediment. Cleaning them regularly helps maintain the water softener’s functionality.
- Power loss: Sometimes, a simple power outage can reset your system.

The Environmental Benefits of Water Softeners
Water softeners play a significant role in promoting environmental sustainability and eco-friendly living. By reducing your reliance on harsh cleaning products, they help minimize chemical runoff into the environment.
Soft water enhances the effectiveness of soaps and detergents, meaning you need less of these products to achieve the desired cleanliness. This reduction benefits the planet by decreasing the amount of chemicals entering our water and supports a healthier home environment.
Furthermore, by preventing scale buildup in your pipes and appliances, water softeners aid in conserving water. This buildup can lead to leaks and inefficiencies, causing unnecessary water waste. By maintaining the integrity of your plumbing system, water softeners enable water to be used efficiently throughout your home.
Installing a water softener is a proactive step towards sustainable living. The combined benefits of reduced chemical use, energy savings, and water conservation make them an environmentally responsible choice.

What's the difference between soft and hard water?Hard water is water that has not been treated. It contains certain minerals like calcium and magnesium. Soft water, has been treated, and does not contain any minerals other than sodium. Soft water may be naturally occurring, such as rainwater, or may result from treating hard water with filtration systems that remove potentially harmful minerals. Hard water is associated with a number of health issues like cardiovascular and reproductive health problems.

How can I tell if there are contaminants in my water?Water must be officially tested for specific minerals and contaminants to see if it is contaminated. However, certain signs can signal that contaminants may be present. These signs differ based on which contaminant is present in your water. If your water tastes funny, or looks murky, it may have certain water contaminants. If you would like a free water analysis, please contact us today: (956) 253-1692
