Water Softeners in Corpus Christi, TX
While it's generally safe to use, hard water can cause a variety of problems related to cleaning your home and your family's clothing, washing your family's produce, personal skin conditions, and even appliance life expectancy and efficiency. Let the experts at ABC Home & Commercial Services diagnose your home's hard water issues and install the best water softener in Corpus Christi to fit your needs.
Water softeners treat hardness of water by removing calcium, magnesium, and sediment from the water. The benefits of soft water include:
- Reduced build-up of film on tubs, sinks, faucets & wall tiles
- Elimination of spotting on glassware, dishes & flatware caused by hard water
- Whiter and brighter laundry while using up to 50% less detergent
- Elimination of hard water residue in fabrics, which can help clothing last longer
- Reduced scale build-up in pipes and up to 29% lowered energy consumption of your water heater due to reduced scale build-up
- Decreased amount of cleaning agents and excess water going down the drain and back into your community’s ground water and/or water system
ABC offers home water softeners in a single tank cabinet style or a two-tank system. How do you decide which system is right for your home? Our experienced specialists will guide you by evaluating the amount of space available for the system along with the hardness of your water.

One of the biggest misconceptions about water softeners is that the salt is what softens your water. What actually softens the water are the thousands of resin beads inside your softener that filter out hard water minerals.
Water softeners use a negatively charged ion exchange resin to collect the impurities from your water. The resin becomes charged when it mixes with a sodium or potassium solution. The salt in the water softener isn’t what softens the water; it is what enables the resin to collect and remove the hardness from your water.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is hard water?
To understand soft water, we need to know what makes water hard. Hard water is water that has a high mineral content. It’s a natural result of minerals like calcium and magnesium accumulating during the water cycle, and it can happen with well water and even city water. The more calcium and magnesium dissolved in the water, the harder the water becomes. This is why certain cities and counties within the same state can have varying degrees of water hardness.
A water softener system treats your water at the point it enters the home. Having soft water means removing these hardness impurities before the water travels through your pipes and into your water-using appliances and before you draw water from the taps of your bathrooms and kitchen. Soft water is less than 1 gpg, whereas hard water is anything above 7gpg. Over 85% of households live in hard water areas.
ABC offers you a water softener system and reverse osmosis drinking water system, creating the healthiest water for all uses.

“A big thank you to ABC & Frank of Corpus Christi for helping us with our HVAC! Frank listened to our concerns & immediately located a leak in our system. He kept us well informed & took the time to explain everything. It was nearly 100° & we were thankful for the next day appointment. We appreciate all of your hard work!”

“I couldn't be happier with ABC's replacement of an AC condenser (outside unit). Even after replacing both inside (air handler) and outside units once with them, I did shop around to hopefully find something more affordable (since everything costs much more these days). But unlike others who tried to make me spend money on things I don't actually need or gave me a better price only after I tried to bargain, ABC was down to earth and Ed (salesperson) was most honest. ABC carries Lennox, which is supposed to be a premium brand, but it beat all other brand estimates. The team came almost immediately and did all the installation work in one seating (more than 3 hours straight). ABC probably won't pop up in a Google search for top AC businesses. Despite their anteater logo, they do a lot more than lawn care. Their HVAC services might well be Corpus Christi's best kept secret!”
