Water Softener Installation

If you’re thinking about investing in a water softener for your San Antonio home, you may be concerned with where it will be placed and how it is installed. The installation process looks a little different for everyone, but we’re here to present you with a general installation scenario.

Although water softener installation may seem like a do-it-yourself project, it requires prior plumbing knowledge and should always be done by a professional. At Kinetico San Antonio, we take care of all the worry, so you can sit back and enjoy your new, soft water.

How Is A Water Softener Installed?

The water softener will usually be placed near the main water supply entry point to ensure the entire house receives soft water. The best placement for a water softener is oftentimes where it feeds into your water heater. This placement not only extends the life of your water heater by feeding it soft water, but it ensures your water softener won’t get damaged by hot water.

Whether you’re opting for our Essential Series, Signature Series or Premier Series Water Softener System, you’ll need room to install your unit. Although our Essential Series is a single-tank system, it still requires space. Our twin-tank and multi-tank-designed water treatment systems need a little more room than the single-tank system, but be prepared to clear space near your main water supply entry point when the time comes for installation.

Reasons To Install A Water Softener

With hard water levels as high as 20 grains per gallon, San Antonio is no stranger to the impact this substance can have on local properties. Water hardness can cause a range of issues in residential and commercial settings. Luckily, investing in a Kinetico water softener install can reduce these problems and enhance water quality in the area.

A few benefits of installing a softening system in your space include:

• Leaves fewer white spots on clothes and dishes
• Prevents wear and tear on water-using appliances
• Protects against dull hair and dry skin
• Provides better-tasting water
• Enhances the efficiency of soaps and detergents

Kinetico San Antonio takes pride in providing efficient soft water systems for homes and businesses in the area. With the help of our top-tier Kinetico systems, you can experience the many benefits of soft water in your space.

Kinetico Water Softening Systems

To help you better understand your options, here’s a closer look at three of the water-softening systems we offer.

Essential Series

Essential water softeners use water power to operate, not electricity. Regeneration occurs in a fraction of the time it takes other softeners to come back into service. Its compact design makes it the perfect solution to provide soft water for a smaller household with a low water use rate.

Signature Series

The Signature Series uses a twin-tank design to provide your home with endless soft water. Even during a regeneration cycle, one tank is always in operation while the other is quickly regenerating. Medium-sized homes with more than five people can use the support of a system like the Signature series.

Premier Series

The Premier Series water softeners from Kinetico are some of the world’s most efficient systems. They use a resin mesh compared to the standard resin beads, which allows the unit to adjust to a high water demand. These units are usually marketed to homes with larger pipes or higher water usage. 

Choosing The Right System For Your Needs

After reading that last part, you’re probably wondering which system will you need for your home? Determining the right size water softener for your home is made easy with a simple equation. Multiply your water’s grains per gallon by the amount of water that is used per household, per day. Don’t worry – our team will help with this calculation during your consultation.

It’s important to have a properly sized water softener to maximize efficiency and ensure you never run out of soft water. Another way to determine what system will work best for you is knowing what’s in your hard water. At Kinetico, we provide a free water assessment to help you identify what minerals are in your water and guide you to the best system to help your household.
