Do I Need a Water Softener in San Antonio?

23Dec2020

The short answer: It depends.

Have you noticed any of the following hard water problems?

Scale build-up on your fixtures
White stains on your dishes, sinks, and tubs
An increase in water bills
Water-based appliances (dishwashers, water heaters, coffee makers, etc.) dying prematurely
Frequently clogged drains
Dry, itchy skin
Laundry quickly becoming faded and rough

If you answered “yes” to more than one of the above, you could really benefit from installing a water softener in your San Antonio home.

Service was excellent. He taught me alot about our water heater. He was kind and very knowledgeable. Sorry I'm just seeing this message. I will be calling on Shafer for all my plumbing needs. He also talked to me about a water softener and I would like more information about that.

Repair of our Mini-Split unit-it was hard to diagnose the problem, but they did. We now have cool air in my husband’s office! The manager offered a discount since it took several visits to diagnose. Shafer was very fair!
