‘Once you have had a water softener, you will never be without one’. That was a quote from a customer some years ago and one we constantly use here at Fountain Softeners.  

We stock a wide range of Water Softener systems to suit all situations. From a small 2 bed house to a large 7/8 bedroom house with multiple bathrooms.  The size of softener you need is actually based on the number of people in your household, because that estimates the amount of water used. It also depends on the amount of space you have, but most softeners can fit in a kitchen cupboard or under a worktop.

Situated as close to the incoming water main as possible, softened water will save you time and money.

Now, the science bit - hard water contains dissolved lime, chalk and other minerals and quickly causes scale to form on all surfaces which come into contact with it, from sinks and taps to granite worktops and shower doors. The unseen and potentially more costly examples of hard water are clogged pipes and failure of central heating elements/pumps. British Water's Quality Group estimate that just 1.5mm of scale reduces the efficiency of your boiler by almost 10%.
 
You will also use less detergents, soaps, and other cleaning products as the water will lather using smaller quantities. Softened water will eliminate the build-up of limescale in your pipes and on heating elements found in dishwashers and washing machines, leading to fewer expensive engineer call-outs and spare parts.
 
Once installed the benefits of your water softener systems will be immediate.
  • Your shampoo will lather up really easily when washing your hair and will leave your hair feeling and looking fabulous.
  • Softened water can leave your skin feeling, smooth glowing and health.
  • Softened water can clear up minor skin problems such as irritation and dryness, and itchy skin associated with Eczema symptoms.
  • Your washing will feel softer, cleaner and you will use less detergent.
  • Cut down your cleaning time with no more stubborn limescale hard water marks.
  • Your sinks, taps and shower doors will have their sparkle back!  
We stock the most technologically advanced softeners including Harveys non-electric brands, along with the Coral electric softeners, both timed and metered models.  For people on water meters, the new Coral Water Save model would be ideal as it uses 40% less water than standard metered water softener systems!

At Fountain we also stock water softener salt, drinking water systems, water filters and domestic UV equipment.
