Kalamazoo pumps its water from 90 wells beneath Kalamazoo County and doesn't soften at any of its 13 treatment stations, so it arrives very hard, around 20 grains per gallon. That's enough to scale your pipes, spot your dishes, and wear on appliances and equipment. Kalamazoo's groundwater also carries iron and manganese, which stain fixtures and laundry, and a softener on its own won't clear all of that. Gordon Water Systems installs and services residential and commercial water softeners across Kalamazoo and West Michigan, for homes, restaurants, manufacturers, and everything in between.
Why a softener in Kalamazoo
Hard water builds up inside your plumbing and shortens the life of your appliances. It also wears down dishwashers, boilers, and other equipment as scale collects and causes early failures. Curious what's in Kalamazoo's water? See our Kalamazoo City Water page.
