What causes the buildup in my shower?
Calcium and magnesium in the water supply combined with soap form a gray, sticky curd that adheres to bathtubs, tile, and glass. Additionally when water droplets evaporate the calcium carbonate recombines as limestone leaving a very hard, difficult-to-remove deposit. The softening of the water coming into your house will solve this problem.

Why does my clean laundry look grey?
When calcium and magnesium in the water are mixed with soap a gray sticky curd is formed that adheres to clothing. This is the source of the gray color. There are numerous chemicals that can be used to control this problem, but they shorten the life of the fabric. By softening your water, not only will you eliminate this problem, you can substantially reduce the use of laundry detergent and increase the life of your clothes.

If you have municipal water coming to your home in the Miami Valley area, the primary cause is the presence of Chloramines. While the municipal waters locally do meet safe drinking water standards, they can regularly taste bad. This can easily be solved with a quality drinking water system installed underneath the kitchen sink or on the main water line going into the house. The degree of hardness standard as established by the American Society of Agricultural Engineers (S-339) and the Water Quality Association is:

What a great company, everything went smoothly. Chris and Bryan were very... professional with my sales and installation. All my questions were answered. This is a much better alternative to Culligan. Where they still treat you personally, not like Culligan who have their own corporate values in mind, not your soft water needs. I'm so glad I found Glaser, and you will be too. Do yourself a favor and give these guys a try, you won't be disappointed. 5 stars !!!Chris Jonesread more

Ivan and Glaser did a great job for us this past week. We had a new build... with a rough in, and the space was very small , but Ivan brought several sized salt tanks and the smallest fit in perfectly. The communication with Ivan and team was smooth and the product we chose to go with has an awesome 7yr warranty for parts and labor, so we're well positioned to be supported for a long time. Thank you Ivan and Glaser!read more

We had a leak in the water heater and water softener. We called Glaser... and they were so quick to respond to review the situation. They happen to have an opening, ordered items needed and installed everything the next day. The guys installing were very professional and friendly. Would not hesitate to call Glaser again and also recommend to everyone!! Thanks again Glaser!read more

We had Glaser Softwater come to our house and do a water test, as we have... well water that had a sulfer smell and tasted bad. Ivan did a great job testing our water, and explaining each step along the way. He then told us our options with no big sales pitch, and let us decide what we could do. We now have drinkable water from the tap, which we truly appreciate. Thank you Glaser Softwater for your help and professionalism.read more
