How do I know if my home needs water softening, filtration, or both?

Most homeowners can benefit from both systems, but a simple water test can determine exactly what you need. If you notice spots on dishes or buildup on fixtures, you likely need a softener. If your water tastes or smells off, or you’re concerned about contaminants, filtration may be the better choice. ME Plumbing can test your water and recommend the right setup for your home.

Why choose BRITA PRO® products?

BRITA PRO® systems offer certified quality, efficient operation, smart features, and customizable solutions designed for whole-home performance.

Do water softeners and filtration systems increase my water usage?

A water softener may use a small amount of water during its regeneration cycle, but the increase is minimal and often offset by the improved efficiency of your appliances. Whole-home filtration systems generally do not increase water usage at all.

Will a water treatment system change my water pressure?

When installed properly, water softeners and filtration systems should not reduce your water pressure. We size each system correctly for your home to ensure strong, consistent flow throughout all fixtures.

How often do I need to replace filters or media in these systems?

The replacement schedule depends on the type of system and your water quality. Most filtration systems require new filters every 6–12 months, while softener resin typically lasts several years. During maintenance visits, ME Plumbing checks all components to keep your system running at peak performance.

Whole-Home Water Softening & Filtration Solutions in Seguin, TX

Hard water and poor water quality can create a long list of headaches for homeowners. From scale buildup and inefficient appliances to unpleasant tastes, odors, and residue, these issues are common throughout Seguin, San Marcos, Luling, and New Braunfels. With naturally mineral-heavy water in many Central Texas communities, it’s no surprise that residents experience higher utility costs, frequent appliance problems, and irritation to skin and hair. Addressing these concerns is an important step toward protecting your plumbing system and improving daily life at home.

ME Plumbing provides premium whole-home water treatment solutions featuring BRITA PRO® products, engineered to improve water quality at every tap. As an Authorized Dealer of BRITA PRO® Products, ME Plumbing delivers expert installation, licensed service, and customized solutions designed specifically for Central Texas water conditions.

What’s the Difference Between Water Softening and Water Filtration?

Water softening and water filtration both improve your home’s water quality, but they solve different problems. A water softener targets hard minerals like calcium and magnesium that cause scale buildup, appliance wear, and cloudy residue on dishes and fixtures. Softening helps protect your plumbing system, extends the lifespan of appliances, and leaves your water gentler on skin, hair, and clothing.

A water filtration system, on the other hand, removes impurities such as sediment, chlorine, chemicals, and even certain contaminants that affect taste, odor, and overall safety. Filtration improves the purity of your drinking water and ensures cleaner water throughout your home.

Water Softening (Hard Water Removal)

A BRITA PRO® water softener removes hardness minerals like calcium and magnesium through ion exchange, helping to:

Reduce scale buildup
Extend the lifespan of appliances
Improve water heater efficiency
Minimize spots on dishes and fixtures
Leave skin and hair feeling smoother

Water Filtration (Impurity, Taste & Odor Removal)

A BRITA PRO® whole-home filtration system targets impurities such as:

Sediment
Chlorine
Chemical contaminants
Bad tastes and odors

Filtration improves your water quality, clarity, and comfort throughout your entire home.

Together, softening and filtration create a complete water treatment solution that delivers cleaner, safer, and more comfortable water for everyday use.

our customers go nuts for ME Plumbing

Who you gonna trust when you've got a leak in your home? ME Plumbing, of course! We've exclusively used them for every plumbing issue we've had for the last several years, from way back when Mike Edwards himself came out in the field, back when he was growing his business. Our experience has been that regardless of who gets dispatched/sent to your home or business, the level of care you get is exactly the same as if Mike was taking care of it himself. Top notch customer care and the highest quality service, with honest prices and integrity. 2 days ago we had what appeared to be an emergency leak situation at the house, and Martin miraculously was able to fit us in that same day. They are so good, in such demand, and they take such great care of each of their customers, it didn't surprise me that they were solidly booked every day all day and initially weren't going to be able to fit us in for another 6 days. I was sort of panicking though.. the wet spot on the carpet had grown from 3 feet to about 1/3 of the room overnight, so Martin offered to fit us in after their regular business hours!! It was 💯 worth it to pay the extra fee for our peace of mind. I'm so SO grateful he did that. He sent us 2 incredibly professional, thorough and efficient, wonderfully kind young men -- Daniel and Derek who took extremely good care of us. Daniel especially went above and beyond for us, and I am just so grateful for his kindness, thoughtfulness and generosity. We were very fortunate that our problem turned out to be relatively minor, but there's no way we could have known that without them running their diagnostic tests etc to determine the source of the issue. Thanks again, ME Plumbing Team!! My family and I so appreciate you!

They replaced 2 toilets, installed bidets, replaced bathroom & kitchen faucets, installed a new water softener and relocated an attic water heater with a new larger water heater. They were always on time and cleaned up afterwards. Their price was less than I expected and their lead technician, Daniel, kept us informed on the progress of the project. Excellent company.

We had a problem with the water heater. Johnny came out & told us the 2 options. We bundled the new heater with a kitchen sink repair. The $ was pricey (but necessary) & the bundling really helped. Service was quick & professional! Thank you Johnny & Jacob. We'll be sure to ask for Johnny if we ever need help again. Once again thank you Johnny & M.E. Plumbing! :)

I had to call ME Plumbing to tear out and re-do a recent job from a different plumbing company. ME Plumbing was very professional, knowledgeable, thorough, and fair. They explained the issues and possible solutions in great detail. They were very clear on what needed to be done. I felt very confident in their expertise. I am very pleased and will be using ME Plumbing for all of my plumbing needs in the future.

Daniel and Jacob were very cordial and communicated the process and work extremely well. They hauled out and took away the old dishwasher and cleaned the area. They did a wonderful install and explained the procedures. They did final set up and leveling and ran a cycle to check for water leaks and function. They did a final cleanup, adjustments, and explanations as we started a clean cycle. We appreciated their work, instructions, and friendliness.

During our recent renovation, we hired Me Plumbing for all the necessary installations, and I was incredibly impressed. They handled the complete replacement of all the stops in our bathrooms, installed new faucets in both the bathrooms and the kitchen, put in our new kitchen sink and faucet, and installed a new disposal. The service quality and value were truly excellent. The team sent out Will and Trip, and they were outstanding—so kind, professional, and they kept their workspace incredibly clean. It’s such a relief to have competent, thoughtful people working in your home. I highly recommend Me Plumbing for any home plumbing needs. Thank you, Will and Trip!
