If you realize that your scalp and skin feel more dry than normal throughout the day, it could be because the water flowing through your showerhead is “hard water.” This indicates that your water softener isn’t working properly and should be looked at by a professional technician.
Faded laundry can also be a sign that your water softener needs to be repaired. If after you have washed your laundry and the colors have faded, it could be due to hard water flowing through your pipes.
In the event that scale builds up in your pipes, the water that flows through those pipes will leave a chalky and gray appearance on your dishes or your other appliances. Scale buildup is often the result of a malfunctioning water softener.
If you notice you are using more shampoo and soap in the shower than you normally do, your water softener may be to blame. Hard water makes it more difficult to lather shampoo and soap, causing you to use more of it in the shower.
Another sign that something might be wrong with your water softener is if your plumbing system has weak water pressure. If your water softener isn’t working properly it will allow hard water to flow through your home’s pipes, which can have adverse effects on your plumbing system, affecting its water pressure.
In addition to those, we also work with many other great brands. And if it’s only a repair you need, we trained and certified to fix just about any make and model.
The summer months often lead to increased water usage due to activities such as gardening, filling pools, and outdoor cleaning. This higher demand on your water softener can lead to wear and tear or reveal underlying issues that necessitate repair.

If a power outage occurs, check your water softener’s settings once the power is restored.

Don’t hesitate to contact our expert plumbers with any questions about taking care of your water softener!
While your water softener itself is usually unaffected by heat, high Louisville, KY summer temps can certainly impact the surrounding humidity. Excess moisture in your storage area can cause salt to clump in the brine tank, to which regular cleaning and professional maintenance services are the best solutions.
Unless the issue is minor, such as replenishing salt, repairs should always be handled by the Sal's Heating & Cooling, Plumbing & Sewer professionals. Attempting complex repairs without the proper expertise will lead to further damage and affect the overall performance of your water softening system.
Absolutely! Regular maintenance, such as cleaning the system, checking for salt levels, and ensuring proper drainage, can all help keep your water softener in optimal condition. Scheduling a professional inspection with our team before summer starts is also a great way to catch potential issues early on.
