A couple living in Ferndown had been putting up with hard water for years. They’d replaced their kettle twice, their shower head was permanently clogged, and their plumber warned them that limescale was starting to affect their boiler. Sound familiar? If you live in the BH22 postcode, it probably does.
Hard Water Is the Norm in Ferndown
This popular residential suburb — close to Bournemouth airport and surrounded by golf courses and heathland — has water hardness levels between 288 and 295 PPM, averaging around 291 PPM. That’s well into “very hard” territory, and approximately 91% of Ferndown homes are dealing with the consequences. The mineral-heavy water supply affects everything from your morning shower to the lifespan of your central heating system.
What Changed for Our Ferndown Customers
After calling Southern Softflow on a neighbour’s recommendation, the couple booked a free home survey. Our engineer tested their water, checked the available space, and recommended a TwinTec softener that fitted perfectly in their utility cupboard. The whole installation took less than two hours.
Within the first week, they noticed the difference. Their taps stayed clean, the shower ran better, and their skin felt softer. A month in, they reported using noticeably less shampoo, washing-up liquid, and laundry detergent. That’s money back in their pocket every week.

What Our Customers Say
“Fantastic service from the Southern Softflow Team! My enquiry was dealt with promptly and expertly. We were first told by the guy from another local company who installed our water softener (before we owned the property) that the softener couldn’t be serviced reliably as it hadn’t been used for a while and was in any case 10 years old so in need of replacing. We were also told it would be unsafe to use and were quoted a heavy price by him to replace it. Keith from Southern Softflow came to have a look, He was knowledgeable, friendly and very understanding. He spent time analysing the water to make sure it was safe to use. He flushed the system through thoroughly and assured us the softener is in good working order so we wouldn’t need to replace it which was a great relief. Several weeks after Keith’s visit we are using our softener with no issues and are very relieved Southern Softflow operate in our area!”
“We've had fantastic service from Southern Softflow from initial enquiry through to installation and beyond. This is our first water softener (TwinTec S5) and we can't fault it (we wish we'd installed one years ago). Southern Softflow's friendly and accommodating service is what set them apart from other companies that quoted. There was no pressure to place an order, and they were very accommodating, as this softener was purchased during a renovation of the whole downstairs, including new kitchen, bathroom & plumbing throughout, so they had to coordinate with our plumber and fit in around other trades. Competitively priced. Fantastic product. Excellent service. I highly recommend Southern Softflow.”
“Brilliant service. Survey done clear explanation of product from Ben. Fitting done three days later. Very helpful and tidy technician. Added a hard water tap at the last minute no problem. Would highly recommend the service and product. Thanks guys!”
“Southern Softflow’s response to my call for help was amazing, from Edith in the office, Keith the boss man to Will the plumber who worked so hard and did a first class job. A truly great personal service not found easily these days. My heartfelt thanks to them all !”
“I have dealt with Southern Softflow for 22 years. Recently after 22 years a fault developed on the machine. The machine was taken away and repaired at a very reasonable cost. As I had moved house I had the machine installed by the kitchen company installing the kitchen and they made a poor job of the pipework needed. When Will from Southern Softflow brought the repaired machine back he rerouted the pipework and put new valves in and did a very neat and professional job. I am delighted. A very genuine and professional company ,a delight to deal with.”
“Fast response to our enquiry, full information provided, work booked for following week. Fitter arrived on time, pleasant, efficient, very tidy and cleaned up when work finished. Very neat pipework, showed us how to isolate soft water if required at any time, and showed us position of new stopcock. Explained how filter system worked, helped us to set up App for notifications when salt low. Stacked spare salt in garage, advised how to apply for more supplies. Presented us with a delightful gift hamper of locally sourced products. Would highly recommend Southern Softflow Ltd.”
