"Chris, from Aqua Systems thoroughly explained how their water softener worked and would enhance the quality of our water (very hard water in a limestone quarry area). We purchased their SmartChoice Gen II model. Installation was delayed three days due to a large project, but they notified us well in advance. Jarred and Robby completed a clean, quick, and efficient installation. They thoroughly explained the system operation and left their cell numbers in case we needed help. The control module also displays an Aqua Systems contact number for help. Within 24 hours, both the hot and cold water felt different and the water taste was improved. Our system has been in 7 days, the water feels silky. My wife's makeup washes off completely with soap and water. Our towels feel softer. Our dishes, especially the glasses, look cleaner. Aqua Systems can analyze you water and recommend a product that will help you - we're very happy with their product and installation."

"On Tuesday we set up an appointment for Thursday afternoon to have the faucets replaced. This morning (Wednesday) Mr. Wise called and asked if it would be OK if he did the job this afternoon. Since both my wife and myself were going to be home it was certainly OK with us if he did the job today. Mr Wise, along with his helper, arrived promptly and went to work. Together they have the Faucets quickly replaced. They cleaned up after themselves and didn't say anything about being finished until we were satisfied with the job. When we need a plumber again Wise Plumbing with be called first!"

Customers say: Quick response

"Selected out-of-the blue for the gas hot water heater installation I needed. A little skeptical with respect to alll the high ratings but, from my experience, they appear very legitimate. Aaron is extremely polite. Showed up on time and worked diligently. Completed the installation in no time at all and for less than what others quoted. I asked for his business card and will call on him for any future plumbing service needs. Quality work and more than reasonably priced. When you find someone fair, responsible, and friendly, you stick with them."

"Well, the first time the replacement was ordered it was the wrong one, which of course, delayed the installation a week. When it was finally installed I had to pay an additional $850 for code upgrades. This I was not informed of by Home Shield. Then we noticed that there was water on the garage floor and found that the pipe coming in from the wall was leaking at the wall so had to call the plumbing company back out to fix it. They first tried to say it was not their fault but since there wasn't a leak before they installed they did fix it. I have used Home Shield a few times before and never had a problem. Some of the companies they use are not the best so you have to research them before you commit. I have found HS service to be good if you do your homework. At the end of the day I was without hot water for almost 3 weeks but it was do to the plumbing company they sent out."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Some shower water softeners are effective, but this isn’t always the case. Most shower filters only filter out chlorine, not hard minerals like calcium. Other shower filters can't handle the demand in homes with very hard water. It's also important to change the filters on your shower filters. Failure to regularly swap out old filters will make the filter ineffective over time. 

Whether you need a license or permit for water softener installation depends on your location. Some municipalities require the installer to hold a plumbing license, while others may only require a permit and an inspection. In some cases, both a permit and a licensed installer are necessary, and some areas have no requirements at all. Often, only certified plumbers and electricians are allowed to pull the necessary permits. To find out the specific regulations in your area, you can contact your local building department. Alternatively, a local water softener installer or plumber will be familiar with the requirements and can typically pull the permits for you. Regardless of local laws, it is always recommended to hire a licensed professional to ensure the system is sized and installed correctly. You can use tools like Angi’s state licensing tool to verify an installer's license status.

Whether you need a permit or license for a water softener installation depends on your location, as requirements vary significantly. Some municipalities require the installer to hold a plumbing license, some mandate a permit and an inspection, and others require both. In some areas, no special permit or license is needed at all.

To determine the rules in your area, you can contact your local building department or consult a local water softener installer or plumber. Often, only certified professionals are authorized to pull the necessary permits, and they will typically handle the entire permitting process for you. Regardless of local laws, it is always recommended to hire a licensed professional to ensure the system is sized and installed correctly. You can use Angi’s state licensing tool to check an installer’s license status.

Hard water isn’t necessarily bad for you. In some ways, it’s good for you. If you’re deficient in magnesium or calcium, hard water can give you a mineral boost that you wouldn’t get with soft water. However, this is where the benefits of hard water pretty much stop. Hard water can cause many minor inconveniences and lead to costly, premature replacements of your water-using appliances.

A water softener is a worthwhile investment if you live in an area with hard water. While hard water is safe to drink, it contains minerals like calcium and magnesium that can cause significant problems over time. These minerals build up inside pipes, reducing water flow and eventually corroding the plumbing system, which can lead to leaks and a shortened lifespan. Hard water also damages fixtures and appliances, potentially resulting in costly repairs. Additionally, it makes soaps and detergents less effective, meaning you'll use more product to get things clean. By installing a water softener, you can prevent these issues. The initial investment is often recouped through long-term savings, including lower energy bills, reduced appliance and plumbing maintenance, and spending less on soap and cleaning supplies. Other benefits include cleaner linens, dishes, and clothing, as well as softer water that is gentler on your skin and hair. In some areas, a water softener can also increase your home's value, making it a valuable long-term investment.
