At Pure Water Systems of Nevada we install water conditioning equipment every day to protect our clients’ homes. We see a lot of ruined appliances from hard water and iron staining, and the question we get asked most often is what it’s actually costing.
So we compiled a cost-saving chart from research and industry statistics. It shows the average homeowner saving $4,538 annually by installing a water softener.
That figure assumes an average home on hard water with a family of four. Your results will vary with household size, hardness level, and appliance mix — but these numbers are real, and they come from the categories most people never add up: water heater efficiency, appliance replacement, detergent and soap, cleaning products, skin and hair products, and bottled water.
