"I had a leak in the power head on the water softener cylinder. They had to order the part which took a couple weeks to get in. I had to follow up with them several times to get updates on status and to get them scheduled to come out to install. But, in the end it was fixed accurately and all is good."

"Great. Old water heater busted during the holidays. Don came out to replace with a tankless model on New Years Day. He came back a few days later to address a whistle noise (fixed with a larger gas line) and install recirculation line for instant hot water to back of house at no additional charge. I'd recommend Road Runner highly based on my experience."

"Great company. 1st we called T & L irrigation, Morettos and 1st choice. T & L was really expensive and morettos is a plumbing company and after talking to professionals morettos  doesn't know what he is doing as far as irrigation or landscaping. We went with 1st choice not only cause the price was good but he explain more about what he was doing and added a few things for free. We called keeling company in Bentonville 479-464 7699 and talked to Charlie and he confirmed that Josh was 1 of the best in the business and had been doing business with them for over 15 yrs.. He hadn't heard much about T & L and never heard of morettos. Josh is very knowledgeable and me being 67 yrs old and this being our 5 irrigation system its by far is the best we have ever had. Less watering and more coverage. He spent a lot of his time here at our home and on the phone answering any question we had.

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Routine maintenance involves recharging the resin bed with salt or potassium, cleaning components, and periodic inspection.

The main difference between a water softener and a water filter is what they remove from the water. A water softener is specifically designed to remove hard minerals, while a filter removes a wider range of contaminants above a certain size, such as bacteria and other impurities. If your primary goal is to remove minerals, a softener is the best choice. If you want to remove various contaminants for safety or taste, a filter is more suitable. Filters are also typically less expensive to install. Depending on your water supply's specific issues, you may need to install both systems for comprehensive treatment.

Hard water is not considered unhealthy and is safe to drink, cook with, and bathe in. It doesn't pose a risk to your physical health and can even help you get enough essential minerals like calcium in your diet. However, it can negatively affect skin and hair. Using hard water for washing can contribute to dry skin, an itchy scalp, and may worsen conditions like eczema by altering the pH balance. Additionally, some people do not like the taste of hard water.

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.

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.
