Get matched with top water softener pros in Daphne, AL

Q: How do I know if I have hard water in my hair?

• <div><p>If your &lsquo;do isn&rsquo;t doing what you want it to do despite using good hair care products, hard water might be to blame. Since hard water can&rsquo;t rinse soap off as well as soft water can, your hair might grow limp because of the shampoo and conditioner residue that&rsquo;s left behind. If you color your hair, you might see it fade more quickly or even turn a different shade as the dye reacts with the minerals in the water. You might also experience an itchy scalp, thanks to the dryness that comes from bathing in the hard water.</p></div>

Q: What benefits does installing a water softener system provide?

• <div><p>Softener systems extend appliance life spans, improve skin and hair health, and reduce pipe buildup by removing minerals like calcium and magnesium.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to replace a water softener?

• <div><p>Replacing a water softener costs $200 to $6,000, depending on the capacity of the water softener, the type of water softener, and the amount of people living in your home. An ion exchange water softener is the most common type and costs $500 to $3,000. Water distillers, which cost $1,200 to $4,000, and dual-tank models, which cost $1,000 to $5,000, are definitely pricey, but they offer more filtration or capacity, respectively.</p></div>

Q: Will a whole-house filter help with hard water?

• <div><p>Yes. Hard water is what causes scale buildup, and a whole-house filter provides numerous benefits beyond water softening. Any water that enters your home will go through the filter, which cleans up all water that you will use for cooking, bathing, and drinking. A whole-house water filter also blocks harmful particles like heavy metals.</p></div>

Q: How many hours does it take to install a water softener?

• <div><p>While it depends on how complicated the unit and installation is, it takes two to four hours to install a water softener unit, on average. It might take longer if pipes need to be replaced. You should make sure the installation area is clear of any objects that might get in the way before you begin.</p></div>

"It went terrific, I was kinda nervous at first because my house is very old and my water heater was in very bad shape. The guys came in and did a wonderful job. Couldn’t even tell they were there and only charged me 850 dollars.
