Water softeners are a great addition for many homes, and when they are working properly, they provide many benefits. But your water softener system, just like any other appliance, will only last so long. Eventually, components may break, electrical problems may occur, and your system may stop working. Here are some things to look for so you can know when it is time to consider water softener system repair services:

● Your Soap Doesn’t Lather As It Used To: If you’ve noticed that you have to use more soap in the shower than usual, it could be a result of hard water. The presence of minerals makes it harder to create soap suds for washing and bathing.

● Your Skin Feels Itchy and Dry: Soft water is better at moisturizing your skin, so if your water softener system is not working properly, you may feel dry and itchy after your shower. Hard water also leaves behind a filmy residue which you may notice on your skin or hair.

● Your Water Tastes Different: Hard and soft water taste different. If you drink water from the tap and notice that the taste seems to have changed, it could mean your water softener needs to be serviced or replaced.

● Your Dishes Are Cloudy or Spotted: The minerals in hard water will often leave deposits on your glassware or spots on your dishes. If you notice that your dishes are not coming out as clean as they should, the water softener should be inspected.
