Frequently Asked Questions

Water softener answers before you call

Does Brevard County have hard water?

Yes. Brevard County water has moderate to high mineral content, particularly calcium and magnesium. Over time this causes scale buildup on fixtures, pipes and appliances — a water softener helps reduce these effects.

How does a water softener work?

A water softener uses an ion exchange process to remove calcium and magnesium from the water supply, replacing them with sodium. The result is softer water that is gentler on fixtures, appliances, skin and laundry.

How much maintenance does a water softener need?

Water softeners require periodic salt replenishment and occasional servicing to maintain proper operation. The frequency depends on water hardness and household usage.

Can a water softener extend the life of my plumbing and appliances?

Yes. Hard water scale buildup is a leading cause of reduced efficiency and early failure in water heaters, dishwashers, washing machines and other appliances. Softer water reduces this buildup.
