What can we help with?
Water-treatment services
Start with the water—not a tank size.
A useful proposal connects tested hardness, household demand, peak flow and the installation site to a written equipment and programming plan.
02
Repair or replace
Softener replacement
Separate salt, valve, resin and programming problems from a system that truly needs replacement.

Measure first
Hard-water testing
Use the right field or laboratory method and keep the untreated result with the final settings.
Explore this service →St. George water context
The City gives a range—not one permanent setting.
St. George’s 2023 water-quality report says many customers with softeners may find 13 to 24 grains per gallon effective. Because customers can receive varying mixtures of groundwater and surface water, final programming should follow a test at the home.
- Test untreated water at the address.
- Record hardness in grains per gallon or mg/L.
- Ask for usable resin volume and the proposed salt dose.
- Bypass irrigation and unnecessary hose bibs where appropriate.
Useful details before the first visit
01
Bring the test result.A dated untreated-water result is more useful than a generic regional chart.
02
Photograph the installation area.Show the main line, drain, power, bypass and available service clearance.
03
Ask for final settings.Keep hardness, capacity, salt dose and regeneration programming in writing.
A plain-English starting point
Which treatment fits which goal?
| What you notice | Possible approach | What still needs inspection |
|---|---|---|
| Scale, spots and poor soap performance | Ion-exchange water softener | Hardness, peak flow, drain and usable capacity |
| Avoid salt and regeneration discharge | Salt-free conditioning | Chemistry limits and the exact performance claim |
| Sediment, taste or odor | Targeted whole-home filtration | Tested concern, media, flow and replacement cost |
| Hardness has returned | Diagnosis or replacement | Untreated/treated tests, brine draw, valve and resin |
Planning comparison only. Final treatment should follow an address-specific water result and written proposal.

Frequently asked questions
Useful answers before you request service.
How hard is St. George water?+
The City’s 2023 report describes Southern Utah sources as hard and says many customers with softeners may find 13–24 grains per gallon effective. Treat that as broad guidance and test at the residence before programming.
Does St. George require a water softener?+
No. Softening is a household performance choice for hardness-related scale, spotting and soap use—not a City safety requirement.
How much does installation cost?+
A common whole-home installation may plan around $1,500–$4,000, while twin tanks, filtration and new plumbing can move higher. These are planning figures, not local bids.
Is salt-free conditioning the same as soft water?+
Usually not. Most salt-free systems manage scale behavior while hardness minerals remain. Ask for a written, measurable performance claim.
