Decided to go with Besco for soft water in our home. They sent Clyde to price it and Michael to install the unit. Both men were very knowledgeable and friendly. Michael started working the minute he hit the driveway and didn't stop until he was done,... very impressive. This is an easy 5 stars.read more

I had a wonderful experience with Besco Warer Treatment. I'm a seasonal resident and didn't know there were steps to take before closing up after the summer. As a result, I had horribly hard water on my return visit, my silver hair was stained yellow,... and some of my water lines were clogged with sediment. Mike, one of their technicians, went above and beyond to help me! He advised me on how to try and salvage my softener (that's not even their brand), and Besco tested my water every five or six days to see if the hardness was changing. They could have sold me an iron filter (what I thought I needed), or told me my resin tank was shot, but they didn't. All told, it cost me $88 to get back up and running. I wasn't exactly a cash cow customer! I highly recommend this ethical company.read more
At Besco Water Treatment, we know how important clean, pure water is for your daily life and home. Hard water can cause many problems because it has many minerals, such as magnesium and calcium. It can damage pipes and make appliances work poorly. Our modern water softeners are made to fix these issues, giving you soft water that’s great for your home.
This page will show why installing a water softener is a good idea. We’ll explain how our different systems can help with your home’s specific water problems. We want to help you understand how to pick the right Besco system for your home. This way, you can enjoy all the good things about soft water every day.
A water softener is a device installed in a home or office that removes minerals such as calcium and magnesium from hard water, making it softer and more suitable for household use. If not treated, these minerals can lead to scale buildup in pipes and reduce the effectiveness of soaps and detergents.
According toEnergy.gov, “There are many water softeners on the market, but almost all rely on the same principle—ion exchange, a chemical process that substitutes sodium (sometimes potassium) for the minerals that make water hard.” In the ion exchange process, hard water passes through a tank of resin beads charged with sodium ions. As tap water flows through, the beads attract and capture the mineral ions, replacing them with sodium, resulting in softer water.
Besco Water Treatment softeners incorporate advanced technology to soften your home’s water efficiently. “Our systems are built for longevity and user-friendliness, ensuring your household enjoys soft water with minimal upkeep,” says General Manager Ken Morgan. We specialize in providing tailored water treament solutions that match Michigan’s unique water composition. Explore our house water softener systems below or call us at (800) 964-0257 for more details.
Why Do I Need to Install a Water Softener in My Home?
Hard water can cause numerous problems in your home, making a water softener a valuable investment. The effects of hard water include:
Clogged pipes and reduced efficiency of your water heater
Unsightly stains on fixtures and appliances
A film left on dishes after washing
Dry skin and hair after showering
Stiff and dull-looking clothes after laundry
A water softener removes excess minerals, protecting your plumbing and appliances while improving water quality for everyday use. According to theMinnesota Department of Health, the benefits of installing a water softener are that it:
“Prevents buildup of minerals (scale) on the inside of pipes, fixtures, and hot water heaters.
Lengthens the life of some appliances.
Reduces or prevents mineral spots on glassware.
Prevents or reduces soap films and detergent curds in sinks, bathtubs, and washing machines.”
At Besco Water Treatment, we understand hard water’s impact on your home and daily life. Our expert team can assess your water quality and recommend the perfect water softener solution for your needs. By installing a Besco water softener, you’ll enjoy softer skin and hair, cleaner dishes, brighter laundry, and extended lifespans for your water-using appliances. In addition, you’ll save money on energy bills and reduce the need for harsh cleaning products. Let us help you experience the benefits of soft water in your home today.
How Do I Determine if I Need a Water Softener?
Wondering if you need a water softener? Look for these signs:
Soap scum and spotty dishes after washing
Soap that doesn’t lather well
Dry skin or dull hair after showering
White crust around faucets or showerheads
Clothes that feel stiff after washing
Having water heater issues. According to thisBob Vila article, “One of the most costly and inconvenient signs that you need a water softener is having your water heater malfunction or fail.”
If you notice these problems, you might have hard water. To be sure, you can buy a simple water hardness test kit from a local store. These kits are easy to use and can give you a good idea of how hard your water is.
For a more accurate result, Besco Water Treatment offers free water testing. “We’ll come to your home and check your water right there,” says Manager Ken Morgan, “Our experts will explain the results and help you decide if a water softener would be good for your home.”
Don’t guess about your water quality – let us help you know for sure. Call us at (800) 964-0257 or complete our online form to set up your free water test. We’re here to help you get the best water for your home.
What Is the Typical Cost of a Water Softener?
The price of a home water softener can vary greatly depending on what kind you get and factors like:
Size of your home
Your water usage
How hard your water is
Type of system (salt-based or salt-free)
Brand and features
Installation costs
According toThis Old House, “The average price to professionally install a whole-home water softener is $1,500, including both materials and labor. Depending on the type of system you choose, the process could cost as little as $500 or as much as $6,000.”
Besco Water Treatment offers water softeners at different price points to fit various budgets. Our team can help you determine the best system for your home and wallet. We’ll give you a clear price that includes both the system and installation.
Besco also has payment plans to make it easier to afford a good water softener. Our goal is to help everyone get better water without breaking the bank.

Smart Water Plus Extractor
Do you have problems with iron or sulfur in your water? Our Smart Water Plus Extractor can help. This system cleans your water without using any harsh chemicals. Here’s how it works:
Oxidation: The Extractor mixes air into your water. The oxygen in the air reacts with iron, sulfur, and manganese in the water, turning them into tiny particles.
Filtration: These particles then get caught in a special filter, removing them from your water.
The result? Water that’s clear, odor-free, and iron-free every time you turn on the tap. The best part is that the filtered water still has lots of good oxygen in it.
Want even better water? You can add a Besco Series water softener after the Extractor. This will also remove calcium and magnesium, which make water “hard.”
With the Smart Water Plus Extractor, you can say goodbye to water that smells like rotten eggs or leaves rust stains. Check outthis brochure or give us a call at (800) 964-0257 to learn more about how this system can improve your water quality.
