"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!"

"As we all know hot water is a necessity especially when it comes to bathing children or other needs. I found the water heater wizard on Yelp because of there reviews and was impressed by how fast the technician was responded to my plumbing issue with no hot water. He gave me a few options and I decided to go with a tankless water only because there was a rebate and endless hot water. The wizard got right to it and had me and my family up in running with hot water within a few hrs. Thank you to the wizard for working your magic on meeting our needs! Highly recommended and a continuing customer"

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Hard water doesn’t hurt, but it might feel more abrasive, especially if you have sensitive skin. It’s also about how your skin feels after bathing. You might feel as though you have a sticky film over your body because you do—it’s all that soapy residue left behind because the hard water can’t rinse it off completely.

It’s not a good idea to oversize your water softener. Doing so will mean the tank doesn’t get full, which can lead to channeling. This leads to a large portion of the resin beads not being utilized and the beads at the bottom of the tank being overused. Over time, this will reduce the efficiency of your system, not to mention that the upfront cost of an oversized softener is unnecessarily high. If you have a timed regeneration cycle rather than a demand-based one, you’ll also spend far more on replacing salt than you need to.

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.

Yes. Hard water is what causes scale buildup, and a whole-house filter provides numerous benefits beyond water softening. Any water that enters your home will go through the filter, which cleans up all water that you will use for cooking, bathing, and drinking. A whole-house water filter also blocks harmful particles like heavy metals.

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.
