Water Softeners & Filters in Maidstone
Soft water for hard-water Kent
Water across Maidstone and much of Kent is hard and chalky, so limescale builds up in kettles, showers, taps, boilers and hot water cylinders. Over time that scale reduces efficiency, shortens the life of appliances and leaves marks on every surface.
Phoenix supply and install water softeners and filtration systems that treat the water as it enters your home, protecting your plumbing and heating and making cleaning easier. We will recommend the right size and type for your household and water pressure.
What we install
Water filtration systems
Filters for cleaner, better-tasting drinking water at the kitchen tap or for the whole house.
Scale protection for boilers
Inline scale reducers and filters to protect combi boilers and hot water cylinders from limescale.
Magnetic system filters
Filters on the heating system that capture sludge and debris to protect your boiler and pump.

What people say
“I had Excellent experience with them, couple of times on different occasions. Boiler service , no big expense no unwanted upgrades, just a good service for under 100 quid. On the other occasion, their team came in to do some plumbing for my dish washer. We had a last minute hiccup so had to do 2 bends at a really difficult to reach place. Guys just went for it with all the necessary tools and a perfect professional job. Can’t recommend them enough for any heating and plumbing needs.”
“I recently used Phoenix Plumbing for a bathroom tap installation and was really impressed with the service. Later on, we had a plumbing emergency with a mains water leak, so I called Luke and he quickly arranged for one of his team to attend. The response was fast, professional, and the issue was sorted efficiently. Great service, great price, and excellent communication throughout. I would highly recommend Phoenix Plumbing to anyone looking for reliable plumbers.”
“Highly recommend Phoenix Plumbing and Heating Solution. My toilet was overflowing intermittently. Sent over videos of what was happening. Quickly provided a clear quote. Engineer arrived ontime. Discovered had wrong part but was no trouble as quickly ordered the correct part and went to collect. Once back the engineer fitted the correct part and resolved the issue. Would recommend to people looking for a reliable plumbing service.”
Straight answers
Frequently asked questions
Can't see your question? Call the office on 01622 585169 and speak to a real person.
Is Maidstone water hard?
Yes. Maidstone and most of Kent sit on chalk, so the water is hard and leaves limescale. Our guide to chalky water explains how it affects your plumbing and what you can do about it.
Will a water softener help my boiler?
Softened water stops new limescale forming in the boiler's heat exchanger and in hot water cylinders, which helps them run efficiently for longer. Manufacturers often recommend scale protection in hard water areas.
Can I still drink softened water?
Most people keep one unsoftened drinking water tap in the kitchen. We can fit this at the same time as the softener.
