Home Water Softeners
A home water softener treats hard water at the mains supply, helping reduce limescale, protect appliances and make everyday water feel softer around the home.
What can a home water softener help with?
A water softener uses ion exchange to remove calcium and magnesium hardness minerals before water travels around your home. This helps prevent new limescale and can make bathrooms, kitchens and appliances easier to maintain.

Limescale-free taps
Softened water helps reduce chalky scale on taps and fittings.

Fewer blocked shower heads
Reduce new limescale build-up that can block shower heads and restrict flow.

Protected appliances
Help protect kettles, washing machines, dishwashers and hot water systems.

Cleaner shower screens
Bathrooms can be easier to clean when new scale is reduced.

Less kettle scale
Kettles and hot drink appliances stay cleaner for longer.

Better lather
Soap, shampoo and detergent lather more easily in softened water.
Softer-feeling water
Many households prefer softened water for washing, bathing, laundry and cleaning. Hair and skin may feel less dry after showering, although a water softener is not a medical treatment.
