"Repeat customers! Last week we had Andy and Brian over to install a tankless water heater and a filtration system. Our water heater exploded and we were so happy with the septic service they did, we brought them back. Now today they are here replacing ALL the pipes under our house. We couldn't be happier with their approach, honesty and hard work ethic. Next up will be two bathroom remodels. Andy and Brian are basically family now!"

"Honestly, my system was a nightmare. The original system came with the house. Later, a local landscaper did the last well and submersable pump and worked on the system. At that time, the spray was so powerful, with what smelled like swamp water, that it would blow huge plumes of mist into the air rather than spray water on the plants. Everything hit the house and cars staining them a rust color. Heads along the house would literally explode off hitting the eve and sending a powerful jet of water into the fascia board and the attic. Water also soaked the wood fence causing rot.
This is a family business. It's been in operation long enough that I'm shocked I didn't know of them before. Given their work, they should have a wide, and great, reputation. Brad came out to inspect the system. He listened to me, inspected the system, and gave me his recommendations. He called his dad, and verified parts of his plan. Since my system was something of a nightmare, Keith, Brad's father, made an inspection the next day to fine tune their plan. He discussed it with me, provided an estimate of around $400.
Everything planned was perfect for my system, and the estimate lower than expected. They scheduled via Angie's List messages and telephone. They made appointments and when delayed, called me to make sure it was okay with me. They were prompt and professional.
They did the job faster than I expected they could. Now, the sprayers put out a spray of water on the plants. There is no mist being blown back at the house or cars. Nothing hits the house, cars or fence. The lawn and plants are watered. Three zones mean the watering period is shorter. Watching it run, is like looking at a brand new sprinkler system. I almost expect to see a new house too, the difference is so dramatic. I am more pleased than I could have anticipated. The final price of $475 was a bargain for the wonderful result. I highly recommend Professional Sprinkler Systems.

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Drinking hard water is not known to have any negative health impacts. Using hard water can lead to dry skin and hair, and the minerals in hard water can build up in pipes, faucets, and appliances. Hard water is more of a threat to your plumbing than it is to your health.

Most experts agree there’s not much difference health-wise between hard water versus soft water. That said, hard water is more likely to cause skin dryness and issues that go along with it, like an itchy or flaky scalp. Hard water can also decrease the life span of your household appliances and make it more difficult for soap to do its job.

The average cost to install a water softener, including the system and labor, is approximately $1,500. However, the total price can range widely from $600 to $6,000. For some complete systems, the cost may be between $800 and $2,500. Labor for the installation typically costs between $150 and $1,000.

The final price is influenced by several factors, including:

  • System type, capacity, and complexity

  • Home size and household water demands

  • Water hardness levels

  • Accessibility of the installation site and the extent of plumbing work required

  • Whether new electrical work is needed

  • The professional hired and any local permit costs

It’s not a good idea to oversize your water softener. Doing so will mean the tank doesn’t get full, which can lead to channeling. This leads to a large portion of the resin beads not being utilized and the beads at the bottom of the tank being overused. Over time, this will reduce the efficiency of your system, not to mention that the upfront cost of an oversized softener is unnecessarily high. If you have a timed regeneration cycle rather than a demand-based one, you’ll also spend far more on replacing salt than you need to.

If your water softener repair is fairly straightforward, like a simple filter replacement, then you can probably do it yourself with little risk. However, anything beyond a simple fix should be addressed by someone with extensive plumbing expertise to avoid costly water softener problems, like leaks. 

That said, even simple problems can be complicated to diagnose, particularly if your water softener is attached to a whole-house treatment system. So, unless you feel absolutely certain that the problem is an easy fix that you can take on yourself, it's probably best to hire a plumber to diagnose and fix the problem.
