"Found that the dispenser was damaged inside.  Could not fix.  Had to come back the next morning to fix leaking under the sink due to the work on the dispenser.  Re routed the water line so that we would still have water to the refrigerator but the join leaked so I had to turn it off at the valve.  The rerouting meant that I could not push back the sliding shelf that holds the supplies.  Had to remove it to be able to close the cabinet door.

"Highly recommended. Steve spent time with me on the phone educating me about the pros and cons of tankless and heat pump water heaters. He followed up quickly with a competitive estimate after visiting my home. He is knowledgeable about rebates that can save a lot of the cost. He is a bayren approved contractor which is required if you want to take advantage of their rebates. He installed one water heater this week and everything went very smoothly. Next week I am having him back to put in a heat pump water heater."

"I spoke with Marco, the owner of the business. He was very clear and was able to explain the options he would take to save me as much money as he could. Unfortunately after running a camera through the sewer line it showed that there were multiple issues. I had a belly in the line that wouldnâ t drain and just past that the pipe was partially collapsed. Marcos team was able to quickly jackhammer out the concrete to access the line, repair it, and then did a fantastic job patching up the concrete. I would highly recommend this business, and will absolutely be using them in the future for any of my plumbing needs."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

A water softener removes minerals from your drinking water and can make your house water softer. These softeners are designed to extend the lifetime of your plumbing system while also making water safer and more palatable for drinking. Hard water, which is water with a heavy amount of suspended particles, can also cause hair damage, skin irritation, and buildup in your pipes.

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.

Generally, it is safe to bathe in yellow water, as the color is often caused by iron, tannins, or rust, which won't harm your skin. Soap will still clean you effectively, though the water might leave stains. However, if the water has an unusual smell or you suspect contamination, avoid bathing and contact a plumber for an inspection. A professional can also help if you find bathing in yellow water problematic and want to determine how to get your water clear again.

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

Because it’s been through the water cycle, evaporating and becoming slightly acidic thanks to dissolved carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, rainwater tends to be naturally soft compared to groundwater, which has just been in contact with limestone. However, the natural hardness level of water always depends on where you are and other factors.
