Salt-Based Water Softener Installation
Removes calcium and magnesium via ion exchange so soap lathers, fixtures don't scale, and laundry feels softer.
Service · Coastal Alabama + New Orleans Metro
Calcite tank that raises low-pH well water to neutral, stopping copper pinhole leaks and blue-green staining.
An acid neutralizer is a tank of calcite — crushed calcium carbonate — that low-pH water dissolves as it passes through, raising itself toward neutral by eating the very media designed to feed it. The tank simply gets topped up as the calcite depletes.
Left uncorrected, acidic water works on your plumbing instead: it dissolves copper from the inside, which is what the blue-green staining around drains actually is, and pinhole leaks follow years later where the wall thinned. Treating the symptom — repiping, restaining — without correcting pH just restarts the clock.
Shallow wells in Baldwin County commonly test in the 5.5 to 6.5 range, acidic enough to matter. It is a quiet problem until a slab leak makes it loud. The free in-home visit reads the staining and your plumbing before we quote, and a neutralizer install carries the one-year parts and labor warranty.
Many shallow Baldwin wells run pH 5.5–6.5; corrosive water causes blue-green staining and copper pinhole leaks.

Local groundwater runs a median pH of 6.69 in Mobile and 6.88 in Baldwin. Below about 6.5, copper starts dissolving — and the stain is the receipt.

Iron, manganese, pH and dissolved solids are covered by standards that are guidance rather than law — and they cause most of what people complain about.

A metallic taste usually means dissolved metal, and the two candidates behave differently. Which tap it comes from narrows it immediately.
