Noticing spots on your glasses, buildup on your faucets, or a chlorine smell when you turn on the tap? Many homeowners in our area face similar water issues. Charleston’s water comes from the Edisto River and Bushy Park Reservoir. It’s treated to be safe, but along the way it can pick up minerals and chlorine. That’s why dishes come out cloudy, showers show scale, and tap water sometimes has an odd taste. In older homes downtown and across Charleston, lead pipes can also add to the concerns. At Wadford Water Works, we specialize in solving these problems for our neighbors. As Charleston’s exclusive Hague dealer, we provide advanced water systems designed for local water conditions.

All around great service! The quality of my water now is amazing. No more cleaning hard water stains weekly. There is a difference with my skin and hair. The only regret I have is not doing it sooner!
Installation went smoothly and efficiently taking only about two hours from start to finish. I am 100% satisfied with my new water softener and filter. The unit I was recommended comes with a Smartphone app that allows for in-home monitoring of the entire system. I couldnâ t be more pleased with how this project went. Thanks guys!

Here are some of the mot commonly asked questions about water filtration systems from our customers
Charleston’s tap water is treated to meet all state and federal safety standards, but many homeowners still notice chlorine taste, odor, or discoloration. Filtration or reverse osmosis adds an extra layer of protection and improves taste, smell, and clarity.
Charleston’s water measures about 58 parts per million (roughly 3.4 grains per gallon). That’s considered moderately hard. Over time, it can cause spots on dishes, buildup on fixtures, and shorten the life of appliances. A Hague water softener can solve these issues by removing hard minerals before they reach your tap.
Yes. If your home uses a private well, the water is not regulated or routinely tested like city water. Well water can contain bacteria, iron, sulfur, and other contaminants that vary by location. Wadford Water Works provides well water testing and treatment solutions to keep your water safe, clean, and reliable.
Each serves a different purpose: Whole-house filtration treats all the water entering your home, reducing chlorine, odors, and sediment. Reverse osmosis systems purify drinking water at a specific tap, removing dissolved solids and metals for crisp, clean taste. Water softeners reduce hardness minerals throughout your home, protecting fixtures and appliances. Many Charleston homeowners choose a combination for the best results. Contact us to find the best water treatment solution for your home.
The first step is a professional water analysis. Our team will check for hardness, chlorine, pH, and metals, then explain the results in plain language. This helps us recommend the right water treatment system for your home. Schedule a water test analysis in Charleston today.
