Water softener not working — San Diego, California
A malfunctioning water softener leaves hard-water minerals in your supply, causing limescale buildup on fixtures, spotty dishes, stiff laundry, and reduced appliance lifespan. Common causes include a depleted or bridged salt tank, a stuck brine valve, a failed resin bed, or incorrect timer settings preventing regeneration cycles. A licensed plumber can diagnose whether the issue is mechanical, electrical, or related to water chemistry and restore proper softening.
