Water Softener Installations in Dayton, OH
Not sure what to do about your hard water problem? Call (937) 238-8620 for a consultation in Dayton. We’ll help you determine if a whole-home water softener is right for you.
Hard water, while not harmful to your health, can create problems in your plumbing. Pipes are more likely to corrode, your toilet bowl may have hard-to-remove stains, and your water heater tank will suffer from scale buildup.
But your plumbing system is not the only thing affected by hard water. Your skin and hair may feel rough after showering, clothes will look dull out of the washer, and it may be harder to get soap scum off your dishes.
Fortunately, whole-house water softening is available to tackle your hard water problems. Spartan Plumbing provides water softener installations throughout Dayton, OH and surrounding areas. We’ll help you choose the best type of system for your property and make sure it’s properly connected to your existing water line.
How Long Will Installation Take?
The time frame depends on whether or not your property is pre-plumbed. Newer homes often have water softener loops already installed. If your home is pre-plumbed with this feature, our team can easily have your water softener connected and running within a couple of hours.
If your property doesn’t have an existing water softener loop, you can still install a whole-house water softener. We’ll just need to prepare your home for this new addition. This includes accessing your water supply line, putting in bypass valves, and installing new pipes (if necessary). All of this will take a few hours to ensure that your water softener and water lines are connected properly and working efficiently.
We understand you have a busy schedule and the last thing you need is a water softener installation job that drags on. That’s why we arrive on time, ready to get to work. Our fully-stocked service trucks have all of the necessary equipment to complete the job in one go, saving you time.
Which Type of Water Softener is Best?
Homeowners looking to install a new water softener have three main types to choose from.
Salt-based systems (ion exchange): This is the most common type of water softener and is what most people think of when they start their search for a new system. Salt-based systems use two tanks—one contains the resin beads that are used to capture hard water minerals such as calcium and magnesium; the other tank supplies the brine solution that removes the harsh minerals from your hard water.
Salt-free systems: These water softeners use potassium chloride rather than sodium to combat hard water. Unlike salt-based systems, there is no need to check your salt levels or worry about refilling the tank. As a result, salt-free systems are ideal for homeowners who prefer something that doesn’t require too much maintenance. They also don’t take up as much space as salt-based units.
Reverse osmosis: This is a more comprehensive water filtration system that not only works against hard water but removes other contaminants as well.
There is no single type of water softener that is better than another. The best one for you depends on your own needs and preferences.
- For those who prefer a more mainstream choice, we recommend the proven and reliable salt-based systems.
- If you don’t want to spend too much time maintaining your water softener, we can help you install a salt-free unit.
- And for homeowners who are looking for additional water purification solutions, we will go over reverse osmosis options.
Spartan Plumbing will discuss your needs in detail and help you select the right water softening system for your household.

Great customer service.
Wes Holman - Lebanon, OH
Braden was awesome. Super professional and very respectful. The price was roughly $1,300 more than the other quote I received so I’m moving forward with the other quote. If it was within $500 of the other quote, I would’ve moved forward with Spartan due to his customer service. Thanks again for being so respectful, Braden!

We we’re called out by Justin and Robin to help them with a bathroom project and cover some concerns with their water quality and their water treatment equipment in the mechanical closet in the basement. Justin is starting a shower project but would like us to update the drain from 1.5 to 2 inch pipe. We will have to pull up subfloor and cut some drywall in order to update this drain piping. We recommended to have the water tested with a water analysis lab in order to see what equipment they really do need for their water treatment. We found out they have a UV light and sediment filter that is not up to par with their needs. Justin was planning on doing the walls for the shower. Justin would like a second opinion to look at all of his options for pricing.

For the Schramm’s we installed a Watt’s pressure regulating valve and expansion tank off the water heater to absorb thermal expansion. We also installed a quarter turn ball valve for main water shut off.

Mrs janning contacted Spartan plumbing with tankless water heater with code 12 which is a combustion issue. Current tankless installed is a propane unit. Evaluated current tankless water heater installation and noticed issues with venting. Contacted manufacture with today’s findings and performed a gas manifold test on system and verified flow and drop in water column. Determined that the heater has been consuming its own exhaust gas since installation and may as well have compromised components that may present issues in the near future. Determined air inlet screen free from debris and unit is working as it should with tech-support on phone went through all possible Errors But manufacture cannot give straight answer on the heat exchanger itself. Returned September 22, 2022 To install new Navien 240a tankless with six year parts and labor warranty and complementary one year flush. Replaced pecks piping to nearest isolation valves, replaced vent with new pvc and installed according T
