Old culligans
Do you have an old Culligan water softener?
This customer did. It was full of nasty coloured water and really worn our. Culligan as a company do not exist any more and you would certainly not be able to get parts for this model.
We replaced it with new pipe work and one of our UK made single cylinder softener that offer great performance and an affordable price.
My son the water softener builder

The Softi water softener with the happy face.
Is this a screen saver
Plumbers do not normally go to university but this mess is going to stretch the old grey matter.
This customer is having a new block salt Softi water softener to replace their old Culigan unit that was undersized and trapped within this cage of metal.
' customers quote- no idea what does what'
What is a water conditioner
That's a great question
This customer had a chemical conditioner and a magnetic conditioner feeding his combi boiler but as he said ' there is still lots of scale'
in it's place he now has one of our softi Softeners. Goodbye scum and scale. Hello a clean home and money saving.

Coffee we love it
it's well known that in Dorset the water is too hard to make great coffee without a softener or filters.
we are very lucky to have the best coffee roaster in England as our customer. He is only a stones throw from us and his coffee is amazing. We popped over yesterday to watch him roasting.
If you want to buy the best coffee visit his website.
and if you want some information about the best water to make coffee call Dorset Water Softeners
Electric Showers
electric showers and hard water are a bad combination.
take a leaf from our customers book and have a water softener fitted so that your water softener does not scale up and your shower screen stays nice and clean.

Service Call
we spend a lot of our week visiting customers with water Softeners that need a service.
this customer had just moved in and was telling us that the softener cupboard smelt of drains.
Further investigation showed why with the pipework naughtily run through the gas vent. Smacked hand to the person that did this. Dorset Water Softeners to the rescue.
Softi Block Salt Softener
another happy block salt softener
here you see our top of the range English made block salt water softener. Made by Harvey's. Non electric and really efficient. Also check out the drinking water filter and the push button stop cock.
Re-Install
just had to be done
had a call from a great lady saying that she had a softener and could we have a look. Great softener but. The but is the 'installer' had covered her stopcock and all of her other isolators. Added to that he had used very long hoses that filled her cupboard. Remember to make sure your water softener company use qualified plumbers.
The new job looks like this, everything excess able and a Push Button Stop Cock ( surestop)
Happy customer now she has one place to come for service and salt.
Cheap Chinese Water Softener
this customer left his plumber to install and buy a water softener. Two years later and no soft water later we got called to fix the problem.
Well we are good but not that good. No name, no parts and guess what no resin. Buy cheap buy twice
Worn out and badly maintained
Just been out to look at an old Euro water softener. No soft water and the motor was solid. The customer had paid for a new servo on the last service but broken again. On closer inspection the resin was worn out and had turned in to jelly. The previous engineers solution was to open the bypass giving the cutomer hard water anyway. Marked sinks and dirty showers soon followed.
Our solution. Replace the unit with a quality English made block salt water softener. No electricity and easy to load with salt.
happy softener happy customer.
Free Me. Free me now.
Its all in a days work
You can buy most things but not time. With a water softener there is less cleaning and its is so much easier.
Use your time wisely. Coffee and cakes, golf, shopping anything is better than cleaning.
I did look for an image of a cleaning man but they are somewhat in appropriate for a family audience.
How often does your need cleaning?
According to my customers every other week
Shower heads
According to my customers every other week. Its because they block up with calcium slowing the water to a trickle and spraying out in all directions. I have heard customers taking them apart, cleaning them with vinegar and generally getting frustrated.
In our home with soft water we have never needed to perform this boring task. We have saved money but more importantly time.
Great Cuppa
the great british cuppa
So many things go into making a great cup of tea. Temperature, timing, tea quality and lets not forget the water.
Tea connoisseurs agree that water quality is as critical as tea quality. Hard water can create a film that floats in the cup or pot due to flavanoids in tea reacting with Calcium Hydroxide in hard water. Several experts believe that hard water is simply unsuitable for tea. For example, ice tea made with hard water will turn cloudy upon cooling.
Soft water makes stronger better tea with none of the floaties plus it will keep your teapot and cups clean. Great News.
Do not forget the biscuits.
Have you ever seen
such a beautiful pair of dogs
not soft water but certainly soft and fluffy
