Why Install a Water Softener?

In Halifax, Bedford, and other areas throughout the Halifax Regional Municipality, water contains high levels of calcium and magnesium. These minerals cause what is commonly referred to as "hard water." 

While safe to drink, hard water can lead to several frustrating and costly issues around your home.

Common Signs of Hard Water

  • White, chalky buildup on faucets, showerheads, and around drains, which is caused by mineral deposits left behind when hard water evaporates
  • Difficulty creating a rich lather with soap or shampoo, often leading to overuse of cleaning products
  • Skin that feels dry, tight, or itchy after bathing, as hard water can strip away natural oils
  • Laundry that comes out stiff, faded, or scratchy despite proper washing, due to mineral residues bonding with fabrics
  • Visible scale or sediment in appliances such as kettles, dishwashers, and hot water tanks, which can reduce efficiency and lead to costly repairs

Installing a water softener helps remove these minerals before they reach your plumbing system. This reduces wear and tear on your pipes and appliances, improves cleaning efficiency, and helps you use less soap and detergent.
