Proudly Serving Sanford, Fayetteville & Raleigh-Durham, NC
Hard water can be an annoyance, leaving behind soap scum in showers and water spots on dishes, but it can also damage your plumbing. The extra calcium, magnesium, and other minerals that cause hard water can accumulate on the interior of pipes and fixtures, restricting water flow. In the Triangle area, municipal water supply tends to have only mild hardness, while private wells can vary by location.
When you need help with hard water in your Sanford, Fayetteville, or Raleigh-Durham home, talk to our team at Comfort First Heating & Cooling. We install and service water-softening systems. We can also provide water quality testing to determine whether you have hard water or other water quality concerns.
Improve your water quality and protect your plumbing with help from Comfort First. Call 919-635-4349 to request water softener services in the Triangle area today.
Signs You Have Hard Water
Hard water can make it difficult to lather and rinse soaps and can affect the health of your hair and skin. It’ll leave behind soap scum, water spots, and stains. Plus, the calcium buildup can damage appliances like dishwashers or coffee makers, as well as faucets, fixtures, and pipes.
Some indications that you may have hard water include:
- Low water pressure from one or more fixtures
- Insufficient or erratic water flow
- Soap scum on fixtures
- Stains on freshly washed laundry
- Water spots on dishes
- Leaky or damaged pipes
Whole-Home Water Softener Installation
If you’d like to avoid premature pipe replacement and find an effective solution to all your hard water issues, talk to our team at Comfort First. We can install a whole-home water softener to remove the calcium and magnesium from your water supply and replace them with harmless sodium or potassium through an ion exchange process.
With a water softener, you’ll experience benefits including:
- Longer-lasting pipes, fixtures, and appliances
- Cleaner water
- Healthier hair with less breakage
- Softer, smoother skin
- Cleaner dishes and clothes

Whole-Home Water Softener Repair
If your water seems harder than normal, leaves behind mineral deposits on fixtures, tastes salty, or is cloudy, your water softener may need repairs.
Ensure it has power, check that the regeneration timer is set correctly, and that it has enough salt and water to work properly. If the system still doesn’t work, call our team at Comfort First for water softener repairs. We can diagnose the issue quickly and recommend the right solution.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Triangle’s water hardness level?
According to Fayetteville’s latest water quality report, the average water hardness is 48 PPM or parts per million. In Raleigh-Durham, water hardness is 25 PPM. In Sanford, it’s 37 PPM.
Are there any health concerns with hard water?
There are no real health concerns with hard water. While it can have adverse effects on the feel and appearance of your skin and hair, it doesn’t cause or contribute to any illnesses.
Do I need a water softener and water filter?
A water softener only removes excessive minerals like calcium from your water. If it has too much sediment and debris, you may need a water filter.
If your water has contaminants like viruses, bacteria, heavy metals, or pesticides, you may need a multi-stage filter, a reverse osmosis system, or UV disinfection.
