Sized to Your Water and Your Household

A softener removes the calcium and magnesium that cause scale. Sizing it correctly is what separates a system that works from one that runs out halfway through a shower.

  • Protects your water heater

    Scale build-up makes a water heater work harder and shortens its life. It is the most expensive appliance hard water quietly damages.

  • Soap and detergent work properly

    Hard water fights soap. Softened water lathers with less of it, and laundry comes out softer without extra product.

  • Demand-based regeneration

    A correctly specified system regenerates based on how much water you actually use rather than on a timer, which keeps salt consumption down.

Do You Actually Need One?

We would rather tell you no than sell you a system that solves a problem you do not have.

  • On a private well: quite possibly

    Hardness is common in Georgia groundwater, often alongside iron. Worth getting your water looked at properly.

  • On Athens city water: usually not

    ACC water comes from Piedmont surface sources that are naturally low in hardness minerals. Most city customers do not need a softener.

  • Look for the symptoms

    Spotting on glassware, scale on fixtures and shower doors, stiff laundry, and soap that will not lather are the everyday signs.

Frequently Asked Answers

Frequently Asked Questions About Water Softener Systems

Do I need a softener if I am on Athens city water?
Usually not. Athens-Clarke County draws from Piedmont surface water, which is naturally low in the minerals that cause hardness. Softeners here are mostly for homes on private wells.
Will softened water feel slippery?
Some people notice it at first, because soap rinses properly instead of leaving a film behind. Most stop noticing within a week or two, and a system can be set less aggressively if you prefer.
How much salt does a softener use?
It depends on your hardness and how much water the household uses. A correctly sized system regenerates on demand rather than on a timer, which keeps salt use down.
