"Aquaco is a great company with an even better line of products. I needed a water softener system and reverse osmosis system for my home and Glenn was able to listen to my needs and provide options to fit our budget and needs. He even provided months worth of salt and a lifetime warranty for peace of mind. I have had the water softener and reverse osmosis system in for several months now and am very satisfied. I would recommend Glenn to family and friends!"
"The installer Dustin was great! He was on time and professional. The installation was completed in about four hours as stated the job would be. I am happy with my water softener system and so is my skin!"

"We’ve had Clear Water Concepts for decades and always had great service. Matt, the owner, retired and passed the baton to his son-in-law who is very helpful and friendly. This week, we had our annual maintenance done by Tech Troy Greenwood. He arrived on time and got everything checked out and changed our filters quickly. I would recommend Clear Concepts and Troy Greenwood."
"I would definitely recommend Mountain Fresh Water Systems to others. Glenn was a pleasure to deal with, he called me personally multiple times to get the details set up and provided me with product literature to make sure the choice I made fit our needs perfectly. The installation went off without a hitch (the installer was punctual and polite) and our new water softener is in perfect working order.
"Ray is very knowledgeable on water systems and listen to all of our needs He advised us on a complete system that addressed those needs for a price that bear the price of any other system I found His installation was impeccable and explanation of the system understandable. I would recommend him to anyone looking for water systems."
"The gentleman explained very well about our water and the gentleman that installed the system was professional, courteous and knowledgeable. They did the installation very quickly without a long wait. I was impressed with the job."
If your ‘do isn’t doing what you want it to do despite using good hair care products, hard water might be to blame. Since hard water can’t rinse soap off as well as soft water can, your hair might grow limp because of the shampoo and conditioner residue that’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.
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 unlikely that hard water on its own could cause substantial hair loss or damage, though it’s true that bathing in hard water can cause your scalp to feel itchy or flaky and might dull your hair’s natural shine. Using high-quality shampoo and conditioner or buying a whole-home water softener can decrease these issues.
You should not use a water conditioner with a water softener because a water conditioner changes the chemistry of the water and causes the ion exchange in a softener to be ineffective. Choose a water softener if you have hard water or well water, and use a water conditioner if you need to remove certain contaminants.
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.
