Water Softener and Filtration
Akron has moderately hard water. Minerals in hard water accumulate in water pipes and appliances, reducing water flow and causing damage. Hard water used for bathing dries skin and leaves hair looking limp. Roto-Rooter installs and services water softeners, which alleviate the damaging qualities of hard water.
Types of water softeners
Salt-based water softeners
Salt-free water softeners
Dual-tank water softeners
Magnetic water softeners
Reverse osmosis water softeners
Shower head water softeners
Akron’s water supply comes from the Cuyahoga River and Lake Rockwell Reservoir. Local water meets state and federal safety standards, but may still contain trace amounts of harmful compounds from industrial discharge, agricultural runoff, disinfection byproducts, and PFAS or “forever chemicals.” A water filtration system helps ensure your home or business's best possible water quality.
Types of filtration systems
Activated carbon
Ion exchange
Reverse osmosis
Mechanical
Ultraviolet
