Sacramento’s water hardness typically averages between 120–180 parts per million (ppm), which puts it in the “hard” to “very hard” category. Over time, that mineral-rich water can cause scale buildup in your plumbing system, reduce water flow, and wear out appliances faster. It can also leave your skin dry, your dishes spotty, and your clothes feeling rough. That’s why many Sacramento homeowners already have water softeners installed.
These systems remove excess calcium and magnesium from the water before it reaches your taps. With a professionally installed system from America’s Plumbing Company, you’ll enjoy softer water, longer-lasting appliances, and a cleaner home.

Book an AppointmentA water softener removes minerals like calcium and magnesium through a process called ion exchange. Hard water passes through a tank filled with resin beads that attract and remove these minerals, leaving you with soft, clean water that’s easier on your home and your skin. Here’s what else you need to know about installing a water softener:

Before you buy anything for your home, it’s smart to do your research (like you are right now). If you want to learn more about what a water softener can actually do—or you’re wondering if it’s worth it—here’s what your water softener installation in Sacramento can help with:
Hard water takes a quiet toll on your home. Minerals like calcium and magnesium build up inside pipes, faucets, and appliances until something slows down or stops working altogether. A water softener stops that buildup before it starts, keeping your plumbing clear and your water heater, dishwasher, and washing machine running like they should. You’ll save money on repairs and replacements—and your whole system just lasts longer.
Ever step out of the shower and feel like you still have soap on your skin? That’s hard water. It leaves behind a residue that can dry out your skin and weigh down your hair. Once you switch to softened water, you’ll notice the difference right away—softer skin, lighter hair, and even clothes that feel cleaner after washing.
With hard water, no matter how much soap or detergent you use, things never seem completely clean. Softened water fixes that. Dishes come out clear instead of cloudy, laundry looks and feels better, and you won’t have to fight off that chalky film on sinks and shower doors anymore. Everyday chores get easier, and everything just looks fresher.
If your water pressure has been fading over time, minerals might be clogging up your pipes or showerheads. A water softener helps prevent that buildup so water flows freely everywhere you need it. Showers feel stronger, and you won’t be dealing with slow taps or blocked fixtures as much.
Mineral buildup makes your water heater work overtime, which drives up your energy bills and wears the system out faster. Softened water heats up more efficiently, helping your water heater last longer and use less energy. That means lower monthly bills and fewer unexpected breakdowns.
While a water softener’s main job is removing hardness minerals, most people notice their water tastes and feels cleaner afterward. Pair it with a simple drinking water filter, and you’ll have water that’s smoother, fresher, and much more enjoyable right from the tap.
A water softener installation connects directly to your home’s plumbing, which means it needs to be done by a licensed plumber who knows exactly what they’re doing. A poorly installed system can lead to leaks, low pressure, or even water contamination.
