San Marcos’ beautiful springs come with a tradeoff: very hard water from the Edwards Aquifer. Left untreated, mineral scale cakes onto faucets and shower glass, shortens the life of dishwashers and clothes washers, and turns water heaters—especially tankless—into sluggish, noisy energy hogs. Radiant recommends and installs water treatment that fits how you live, from mid-century homes near The Square to newer builds in TRACE, La Cima, and Blanco Vista, as well as student rentals around Texas State.
We start with a quick hardness/flow assessment and talk through your goals (spot-free dishes, softer laundry, protecting a new tankless water heater, protecting your skin and hair, improving taste/odor, etc.). Then, we pick the right size based on actual water hardness (in ‘grains’), so the softener regenerates only when it should – no wasted salt, no cold showers. We install it neatly with a bypass valve, labeled shutoffs, a proper air-gap to the drain, and cleanly routed brine lines. Tankless water heater? We add an annual descaling to keep the heat exchanger in top shape
Our maintenance visits focus on catering to San Marcos conditions. We recommend quality salt, periodic resin checks, sanitation of the brine tank, and calibration after plumbing changes or remodels. Light commercial spaces, such as cafés off University Dr., salons, and retailers near the Outlet corridor, see fewer equipment breakdowns and better customer experiences when water softening systems are installed to protect ice makers, fixtures, and on-demand heaters.
