"We moved to a new home in Rancho Palos Verdes in September, 2021. We had a whole house filtration system in our old house and wanted one in our new house as the water in RPV is very hard. The fixtures here showed the scaling results of this hard water and our washed clothes felt â rough.â One important issue that we needed to address was the location of any treatment system that would need to be installed. Our old house had a space in the garage for a large water treatment tank; however, our new house did not have room in the garage because of pre-existing plumbing. That meant that an outside installation was required. After conducting an extensive investigation of potential water treatment systems and meeting with a number of representatives from other companies, we decided to go with Pro Water Solutions, a privately owned company located in Valencia. We were impressed by our meeting with Brad Belnap, one of the co-owners of Pro Water Solutions. He had extensive knowledge of the various water treatment alternatives and answered our questions. The price quoted was reasonable and less than some of the quotes. The location of the system would await his co-owner, Jack Fithian, coming out to do the installation. During a couple of prior meetings with other water treatment reps I wasnâ t happy that they wanted to place the water tanks in front of our house. That would be very unsightly. I wanted to put the tanks behind a gate at the side of our house to hide them from the street. To my very pleasant surprise that is exactly where Jack said the tanks should go! We selected a soft water system that included two tanks and a brine tank to hold either the salt or potassium pellets. The installation was on time and went smoothly. Because salt is not good for plants, Jack put in two water lines â one to soften the water coming into our house and another line without softener for our plants. There was no reduction in our water pressure from having two lines. Unrelated to the quality of the water softening system, we decided to change to a â Scale Prevention Systemâ which does not include a water softener. After discussing the matter with Brad and Jack, they accommodated our request and Jackâ s son came out quickly and put in the different system. After more than six months, we are very happy with how the Pro Water Solutions system works. The non-softening system (which we understand is required by some cities) has not changed the taste of our water and our clothes feel much softer than before. Also, there is no scale developing on our fixtures and we feel comfortable that our appliances are also being protected. Bottom Line: we will recommend Pro Water Solutions to our friends. They provide a number of fine water treatment options at a reasonable cost and do it in a prompt and professional manner."

"Western Rooter to the rescue again! I had a small underground leak which appeared to be due to a bad sprinkler valve. A sprinkler repair company determined that it was not a bad sprinkler valve and thought it was due to a leak in the main water line. Daniel and Alex dug down to find that the leak was coming from a very old (at least 36 years) broken pvc line. After much testing and head scratching to try to figure out where the water was coming from, they decided to "chase the pipe." After much digging, they found that the very old broken pvc pipe was hooked up to a sprinkler valve that was buried 18 inches underground that had not been capped--only turned off. Roots from a nearby tree had opened the valve which caused the leak--crazy! The current sprinkler system has been the same one since we moved into the house in 1988. It took 36 years for the underground leak to occur!"

"Can not say enough positive things about this company. Usually do alot of things diy, but i would hire them any time to do plumbing. Their professionalism is way above board. Prices more than fair. Miguel is a definite asset to this company. When i have a plumbing problem i will definitely call them back. (had another company come before them that could not get the job done and suggested replacing the trap under my bathtub. My home is not on a foundation but a slab, and that means removal of my bathtub. The cost of his visit would have gone from one hundred dollars to thousands. ) Thank you Service Champions!"

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

The chemicals in a water softener can wear down the anode rod in the heater and shorten its life span. However, for most people, the benefits of the softener outweigh this potential drawback.

Have a plumber inspect the anode rod annually for damage, as replacing the anode rod is far less expensive than replacing the entire water heater.

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 depends on the type of surface. For instance, if you’re trying to get rid of hard water deposits on glass, you can spray vinegar onto the surface and wipe it off with a soft cloth or non-abrasive sponge. However, if the deposits are on granite or natural stone, it’s better to use baking soda and water rather than vinegar or other acidic cleaners.

While not everyone can detect taste differences in high-calcium water, water that has a slightly metallic taste probably has too much calcium.

The most accurate way to determine whether you have hard water is to purchase a water test kit from a hardware store or send a tap water sample to a lab. But there are some signs you can look out for without professional testing. For instance, if you're consistently dealing with mineral stains on your glassware, windows, and shower doors, you're likely to have hard water. Hard water can also make it harder to lather and rinse soap, so if you're struggling to work up a good lather in the shower, hard water might be the culprit.
