Frequently asked questions
How do I know if I have hard water in San Marcos?
Common signs of hard water include soap scum buildup on fixtures, spots on dishes, dry skin and hair, and reduced appliance efficiency. We can also perform a water hardness test for you.
What is the difference between a water softener and a water filter?
A water softener specifically removes minerals like calcium and magnesium that cause hard water, while a water filter removes impurities such as chlorine, sediment, and other contaminants to improve water taste and safety.

Most standard water softener installations can be completed within 3-5 hours, depending on the complexity of your home's existing plumbing and the chosen system.
