"Scott came out on short notice and was very professional and had my Vesta Softener installed and running in minimal time. I am very pleased with the system so far and given Scott & Zak's kind, courteous, non-pushy nature, I am convinced if I ever had any issues or needed help, both of them would be "Johnny-on-the-spot" and would step up to help me out. I highly recommend these guys for anyone needing a water softener, RO System or just advice for their water needs."

"I wish I could give Aquaco more than 5 stars. Their service is outstanding. Glenn took the time to get to know me, my values and my needs before recommending a water softener that would be perfect for me. Brandon, who installed my water softener and RO was very friendly and knowledgeable and the owner Glenn came out personally twice to check on the system and make sure everything was top standard. I highly recommend Glenn and Aquaco and will be using them again in the future for any other Arizona houses I may purchase."

"I recently had an issue with my water heater diagnosed by my kids complaining of cold water! I called Bluefrog Plumbing and Drain of Gilbert. They were over within 1 hour and did a thorough inspection of the tank. They quickly diagnosed the issue and with just a $25 part, we had hot water. They could have easily said we needed new elements or even a new tank - but the did not. The were honest, prompt, clean, nice and easy to deal with. I will be using them for all of my plumbing needs from here on out!! I will be giving them five stars!!!!"

"Rich was prompt and highly communicative in advance of the first appointment to make sure I understood my options to replace my water softener. Once there, he did an extremely professional job an cleaned up perfectly after the job. During the water softener install, I mentioned that I had a leaky spigot valve in the backyard. Rich cut off the old one and welded on a new one that is working great. He charged me a minimal fee for the addon work since he was already on site. Here's the kicker and why I'd highly recommend Rich to anyone. During the install he talked about how he would come back without issue if there were any questions or issues. Well a couple weeks later, there turned out to be an issue. When the unit backwashed it dumped water onto my garage floor. This problem persisted. The second time it happened, I called Rich who we very willing to come back. It turns out my drainline, that had been put in by a previous provider had a kink which was causing it intermittently clog, causing the overflow of water in the garage. Rich found the issue and ran a brand new drain line through the attic. He was at my house for 3 hours to identify and resolve the problem. At the end he offered to not charge me, even though the drain line problem wasn't his fault. I insisted on paying him so he gave me a LARGE discount. I now consider Rich my go-to plumber. He'll get all my business moving forward."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

No. You should never directly drain a water softener into a sewer cleanout. This practice is illegal in many areas because it could allow raw sewage to get into your drinking water and make you seriously ill. Many places have codes requiring a specific seal, pipe, and a large air gap between a water softener and a sewage cleanout. Check out Florida's Plumbing Building Code as an example of what these restrictions might look like.

The most effective way to fix hard water in your shower is by installing a whole-home water softening system. This system treats water as it enters your home, removing the minerals that cause hardness before they can reach your shower or any other fixtures. While this is the most comprehensive solution, other methods are often temporary fixes. For a more affordable and shower-specific option, you can install a water-softening showerhead or a shower filter. However, these filters are generally less effective and may not remove all the contaminants that lead to limescale and hard water stains. By implementing a water softening solution, you can expect a reduction in mineral deposits and enjoy the benefits of cleaner-feeling hair and skin.

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.

A single shower consumes an average of over 17 gallons, while brushing your teeth with the water running uses up to four unnecessary gallons. Watering the lawn spreads hundreds of gallons of water across the yard each time. Limiting water usage in these areas can significantly cut down your water bill.

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.
