Gilbert Water Softener FAQ

If you see white spots on glass and fixtures, crust on faucet aerators and showerheads, or soap that does not lather well, your water is hard enough that a softener will help. We test your water at the estimate so the recommendation is based on your numbers.

A softener removes calcium and magnesium through ion exchange, so you get truly soft water. A salt-free conditioner leaves the minerals in the water but changes how they behave, which reduces scale without salt. Softeners do more; conditioners need less upkeep.

Many Gilbert homes were built with a softener loop in the garage, which makes installation quick. If yours does not have one, we can add a loop so the softener can be connected.

Softened water contains a small amount of sodium, but most people do not taste it. Many homeowners add a reverse osmosis system at the kitchen sink for drinking and cooking water.
