- Locally Owned, Ohio-Based
- Engineer-Led Since 1998
- Satisfaction-Backed Service

## Commercial Water Treatment Systems We Engineer

Each piece protects the next. We size the whole train around your flow rate, your water and your process, for manufacturing, food and beverage, healthcare, hospitality, pharmaceutical, data center and energy facilities. [See the industries we serve](https://www.hoffmansoftwater.com/industries.html).

| System | What It Does | Details |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Water softening | Ion exchange removes the calcium and magnesium that cause scale. Twin alternating, demand-initiated and custom multi-stage systems. | [Softener installation](https://www.hoffmansoftwater.com/water-softening.html) |
| Filtration | Multimedia and activated carbon remove suspended solids, chlorine, iron and manganese before they reach softeners and membranes. | [Water filtration systems](https://www.hoffmansoftwater.com/filtration.html) |
| Reverse osmosis | Strips dissolved solids, sodium and silica. A well-run commercial system drops conductivity by 95 to 99 percent. | [Commercial RO](https://www.hoffmansoftwater.com/reverse-osmosis.html) |
| Deionization | Polishes RO water to near-zero conductivity, as service-exchange tanks or on-site regenerable systems. | [DI and specialty treatment](https://www.hoffmansoftwater.com/filtration.html) |
| Service and monitoring | Water testing, resin and media replacement, written service reports and 24/7 emergency response. | [Service agreements](https://www.hoffmansoftwater.com/service-monitoring.html) |

## What Untreated Water Costs a Facility

Commercial water is hard on equipment, and the cost shows up in energy bills, repairs and downtime.

### Ohio Water Is Very Hard

Commercial water in Ohio falls in the “Very Hard” category, 15 to 25 grains per gallon. See the [Ohio water hardness guide](https://www.hoffmansoftwater.com/ohio-water-hardness.html) for your area.

### Scale Wastes Energy

Scale builds at roughly 1/16 inch per year on heat exchange surfaces at these hardness levels, enough to raise energy use by up to 29 percent, per U.S. Department of Energy data.

### One Train, Not Parts

Softening and filtration protect reverse osmosis membranes, so we design them together. Skip the pretreatment and you replace membranes on a schedule no budget wants.

## Pretreatment, Done Properly

Hoffman Soft Water is led by a chemical engineer and has been in the field since 1998. We install and service pretreatment equipment. For boiler chemistry, cooling tower chemistry and other full-plant chemical programs, our parent company [Hoffman Water](https://www.hoffmanwater.com) handles that side. Not sure where to start? Our [cost guide](https://www.hoffmansoftwater.com/cost-guide.html) shows what drives the price of a commercial system.
