Simply Softeners provides professional supply and installation of eco-friendly water softeners across Chichester — with a free home survey and no obligation.
🌊 Chichester's water is very hard at 312ppm — well above the UK average. Every day without a softener costs you in energy bills, appliance wear and cleaning products.

At 312ppm, the city's historic properties and modern homes alike are affected by significant limescale problems. Here's what that means in practice for homes and businesses across Chichester.
Many of Chichester's period properties have older pipework that is especially vulnerable to internal limescale restriction and damage.
At 312ppm, Chichester's hard water rapidly scales boiler heat exchangers, reducing efficiency and shortening system lifespans.
Shower screens, tiles and chrome fittings in Chichester homes require constant descaling — a battle that disappears with softened water.
The mineral content in Chichester's supply is clearly detectable in drinking water and hot drinks — something a softener and bypass tap resolves.
A free no-obligation home survey takes around 30 minutes. We assess your property, recommend the right system, and give you a fixed price — no surprises.
Hard water affects everyone in Chichester — but some households see a particularly dramatic improvement.
Chichester's wealth of historic homes require careful protection — hard water is particularly damaging to older pipework and heating systems.
Marine environments combined with very hard water create an especially challenging environment for plumbing and appliances.
Soft water is better for children's skin, gentler for bathing and eliminates limescale from family bathrooms.
