Discover the Best Water Softeners for
Alaska's Unique Needs
​​
Alaska's water hardness varies depending on the levels of dissolved minerals such as calcium and magnesium. Compared to other regions, the mineral content in Alaska's water supply is generally lower, thanks to its geological features including volcanic and glacial formations. However, the water in Alaska is typically classified as soft to moderately hard, with glacial meltwater containing minimal minerals.
In areas with sedimentary or volcanic rock formations, particularly in the interior or regions typically known for mining activities, may have slightly harder water. Data shows significant differences in water hardness levels across various cities in Alaska, with the highest levels recorded in the Palmer / Wasilla Area (180 ppm or 10.5 gpg) and Anaktuvuk Pass (160 ppm or 9.3 gpg). If you're dealing with hard water issues in your home or business act today and call us and we can help you with which type of Alaska water softeners are best for your application.

How Can A Water Softener Make A Difference in Your Home?
You may not be aware of the many benefits of soft water in your home. Here are just a few reasons we recommend you consider a water softening system in your home, especially if you live in the Wasilla & Palmer Area of Alaska
Softer Skin & Hair
Achieve softer skin and hair with a water softener. The minerals present in hard water can easily bond with our skin and hair, resulting in a unpleasant film similar to limescale on faucets. By installing a water softener, these hardness minerals can be removed naturally, allowing your body to be free of buildup. This eliminates the need for expensive lotions and skin care products, as your skin and hair will feel noticeably softer and smoother.
Appliances Last Longer
Prolong the lifespan of household appliances - dishwashers, washing machines, water heaters (electric, gas, and tankless on-demand), ice makers, boiler systems, and humidifiers can all be negatively impacted by the presence of hardness minerals in your water supply. The prolonged exposure to hard water can significantly shorten the operational lifespan of these appliances as they are not equipped to withstand such conditions.
Reduce Cleaning Time
Soft water can facilitate easier removal of dirt and residue from various surfaces in the home, ultimately reducing the time and effort required for cleaning. In contrast, hard water can make it challenging to effectively eliminate stains and grime, often leaving behind unsightly mineral deposits. By utilizing soft water, you can streamline the cleaning process and achieve a sparkling, streak-free finish throughout your living space.
