Expert Water Softening Solutions for the Austin Area

At Cold Is On the Right, we believe everyone deserves high-quality water in their homes. Our water softener systems use advanced ion exchange processes to remove hardness minerals like calcium and magnesium, replacing them with sodium ions that create soft water. This not only protects your plumbing system but also helps prevent skin irritation, smelly water, and stubborn water spots.

We provide customized water treatment equipment designed to give you a better life. Our team installs and maintains whole-house water systems, offering both traditional salt-based solutions and advanced filtration systems to address chlorine, contaminants, and other chemicals present in tap water.

Our Process

Start with a Water Quality Test

Every water softening project begins with a water quality test. Our team measures the hardness minerals, chlorine levels, and any contaminants present in your water supply. This test helps us understand exactly what’s affecting your water quality and ensures we recommend the right system for your plumbing needs. By starting here, we give you a clear picture of your home’s water conditions.

Assess, Diagnose, and Explain

After the test, our repipe specialists for water systems take the time to assess the results and explain them in detail. We’ll diagnose whether you’re dealing with high levels of calcium, magnesium, or other factors contributing to hard water. Just as important, we explain the available solutions so you understand the entire process before making a decision.

Get the Job Done Right

When it’s time for installation, our professional plumbers handle the entire process with precision. From setting up the brine tank to connecting the system with your plumbing, we make sure every detail is correct so your fixtures, appliances, and drains receive softened water immediately. We test the water flow, confirm the system is functioning properly, and leave you with clear instructions for care and maintenance. With our team, you can count on excellent service and a system that works the way it should from day one.

High Fives from Austin Homeowners

Graysen and Andrew from Cold is on the Right came out just a couple hours after I called and took care of cutting out my kitchen faucet. They were professional, friendly, and clearly knowledgeable, explaining everything in a straightforward way without any upselling or confusion. It was refreshing to get honest answers and excellent service so quickly. I’ll definitely be using them again for future plumbing needs.

We contacted Cold is on the Right today with an urgent plumbing need. Their very professional and organized crew arrived within 30 minutes and fixed our issue. We called five other plumbing companies before them and no one was able to help us. Cold is on the Right will now be the first plumbers we call.

Services: Drain cleaning

We called due to slow drainage and apparently main line backing up into master bathroom shower and sink. There is an automated line that takes your information and apparently works very well. Plumbers Billy and Jeremy showed up promptly after we were informed they were being dispatched this morning, they stayed and worked until the problem was solved and advised on possible future repairs that would need to be done. They were professional, smart, respectful of our home, and efficient in their actions. Let us know what things would cost and were honest in their assessment of what would be needed next and how (un) likely our homeowners insurance would be able to help.  I appreciate the service and the fair treatment by these gentlemen. Thank you.

Santiago and Kyle were amazing during our total HVAC system replacement. Kind, informative, knowledgeable and careful to ensure a smooth install. They were efficient and got my AC working before my family arrived for spring break. Now enjoying the cool air with family. Great pricing and quick turn around from quote to finished job. Thank you! 10/10 would recommend them to anyone needing HVCA or plumbing work.

These guys are prompt and very polite, and explain your options well without trying to upsell. We thought we needed three things replaced, but they showed us that one of the three just needed an adjustment rather than a replacement. Wonderful service!
