"I discovered my water heater leaking this afternoon! Figured I would have to wait for an appointment. When I called Active Plumbing Solutions at 4:42pm, Jordan was very nice and professional. He set me up for an immediate installation. Right then! His estimate of "about an hour and a half" was incorrect, however. Daniel, the tech, arrived in about 35 minutes. He already had the water heater I needed; which is a testament to the communication/organization between dispatch (Jordan) and the tech (Daniel) at Active Plumbing Solutions. The install went flawlessly and here I am at 7:17pm (same night) writing this review! Pricing was better than I had last year when I needed a repair and got 2 replacement quotes just in case. I could not imagine a better experience. Both representatives from Active Plumbing solutions gave GRADE AAA+++ Service. I will use their service again and recommend them to any and everyone who needs plumbing service."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

No, hard water isn’t dangerous. The added calcium in hard water can contribute to good bone health. However, it can also cause dry skin and hair. If you have dry skin or hair, consider using a water-softening system to help minimize the minerals in your water. Plus, these systems can also add some sodium to your diet. 

The primary difference between a water softener and a water filter lies in what they remove from the water. A water softener is designed to remove hard minerals like calcium and magnesium. In contrast, a water filter has a broader effect, removing various contaminants above a certain size, which can include bacteria and other impurities.

To decide which you need, consider your goal. If you want to eliminate hard minerals, choose a softener. If you want to remove a wide range of contaminants, a filter is the better option. Filters are also generally less expensive to install. Depending on your water supply, you may need to install both for comprehensive treatment.

Yes, a water softener can remove scale deposits. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, after you add a water softener to your home, “gradually the softer water will dissolve limescale scale deposits and remove the problem entirely.” Installing a water softener—or water descaler—will also help prevent new scale deposits from forming.

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.

Installing a water softener could help reduce calcium buildup in your pool if your pool has high calcium hardness as a result of hard drinking water in your home. Pool softeners work by exchanging calcium and magnesium for sodium, so if you use softened water to top off your pool, it may help keep calcium hardness from rising over time. However, it won’t lower the calcium hardness of the water already in your pool and isn’t a practical way to control pool calcium levels. The average water softener installation cost is between $200 and $6,000.
