Improving Water Quality in Your Home

Haller Enterprises provides water filtration and softening services in Southern and Eastern Pennsylvania. A certified Haller technician will come to your home to test your water for sediments and contaminants, such as lead, arsenic, and chlorine.

Based on the results of this test, we’ll recommend and install a new water softening and filtration system to ensure your home’s water is clean and safe. Haller also offers regular maintenance to keep quality water flowing through your home.

UV Lights

Ultraviolet Light Systems

Removes all bacteria contaminants from water, making it safe to drink.

Why Soften Your Water?

Soft water can bring greater efficiency to your life. From time spent on chores to energy use and the amount of soap you use, soft water makes it easier.

Water from your public water system has added minerals like calcium and magnesium. While these minerals do have health benefits, gradual buildup can damage your household appliances.

You can install systems to remove these minerals. Soft water, similar to rainwater, flows through your taps and can make your home run more efficiently.

1. Household Chores

The minerals in hard water leave spots and residue on your dishes. Using soft water makes your dishes, bathtub, and even your hair shinier.

2. Hard Water Uses More Energy

When the ions of minerals in hard water react with soap, it’s more difficult to form a lather. This means you use more soap with hard water. You and your appliances will be less effective and require more soap to wash dishes, laundry, and your hair.

3. Hard Water Can Damage Household Appliances

Hard water can damage appliances when sediment collects and restricts water flow in your home’s pipes. This can decrease water pressure and further damage your plumbing system.

4. Reduce Plastics

Soft water is often considered “smoother” and lacks the “chemical” taste that’s sometimes detected in hard water. Stop buying bottled water and enjoy water right from your tap!






Signs You Need Water Softener Repairs

You may not notice it immediately, but there are plenty of signs that your water softener needs repairs. If you detect any of these, we recommend scheduling a service:

  • Decreased salt use: If you’re using less salt than normal, it’s a sign the unit is malfunctioning.
  • Limescale: When you notice calcium and magnesium lining the sinks, faucets, tubs, etc., it could mean the unit isn’t removing these minerals.
  • No lather: When soap or detergents won’t lather, it indicates a high mineral content in the water.
  • Dry skin or hair: Soft water won’t leave your hair feeling brittle and your skin feeling irritated.
  • Lower water pressure: Hard water can block water flow through pipes. 
  • Discoloration: Cloudy, discolored water can indicate too much sediment or high mineral content.
  • Faded clothes: Calcium and magnesium in your water can cause clothes to fade.

Frequently Asked Questions

Water Filtration & Softening

What causes water pollution?

Water pollution occurs when water is contaminated by a number of things, including sewage and wastewater, industrial waste pollution (via chemicals), agricultural waste, marine dumping of human garbage (i.e., plastics, glassware, etc.), oil leaks, fossil fuel ash, landfill leaks, and chemical fertilizers/pesticides.

How does water softening work?

Hard water contains minerals (lime, magnesium, and calcium). These can damage your appliances and home systems. A water softener filters minerals from your home’s water supply to ensure the safety of your home’s appliances and systems.

Why is water filtration important?

A water filtration system separates pollutants from our water. This ensures our water is clean and safe for drinking, cooking, cleaning, and more.

Water Quality & Testing

What causes water pollution?

Water pollution occurs when water is contaminated by a number of things, including sewage and wastewater, industrial waste pollution (via chemicals), agricultural waste, marine dumping of human garbage (i.e., plastics, glassware, etc.), oil leaks, fossil fuel ash, landfill leaks, and chemical fertilizers/pesticides.

What are water quality indicators?

Water quality indicators are measures that are used to test the quality of water. Key indicators include the amount of dissolved oxygen, the water temperature, pH balance level, Escherichia coli (E. coli) level, transparency, and amount of nitrates.

What are water quality standards?

Water quality standards are parameters set and approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to ensure water is safe and clean for drinking, and aquatic water life is protected. As mandated by the Clean Water Act, every state must adopt water quality standards that work toward achieving this goal.

Why is water quality important?

Water is vital for humans and our environment. We use water every day for drinking, cleaning, bathing, cooking, and more. Ensuring it’s clean protects our health and safety.
