"I woke up to a Monday morning water heater flood in my garage. All the Lompoc plumbers were not available until Wednesday or Thursday...not an option!!! I called Griffin and they were here with a few hours, not days. Jake was professional, friendly and courteous. He explained all the options and the work that was going to be done. It was more expensive than I had planned but then PERFECTION has a price. If you are looking for a bargain, not the company BUT if you want the BEST, you get what you pay for!"

"The job was done well. The repairman was very nice. He completed the work in a timely manner and left the bathroom spotless. I have already recommended 4G’s Plumbing to the Manager of my Mobile home park and my next door neighbor. I will definitely use this company for any future plumbing needs"

"We came home after a week of vacation and found that we had a hot water leak. We contacted Water Fixers and they sent out a plumber to check out the situation. After that we received a quote for the work to be done. We spoke to Lynda the Office Manager a few times and she was very kind and helpful. We also spoke to Victor, the Owner and he was very nice and professional. Victor explained to us what needed to be done to repair our slab leak. Fortunately the leak itself was small and had not done any damage so they did not have to rip up the floor. They did have to cut several holes under sinks, the hot water heater and in the ceiling in our laundry room as they had to put in new water lines and reroute them into our attic and down the walls into both bathrooms and the kitchen. We ended up having two plumbers doing the work and it took 4 days to complete the job. The two plumbers were very nice and worked very hard to get the leak repaired and made sure to verify that the repair was done correctly and that there were no leaks when they were done. The final bill was a bit more than the quote, but we believe that the charges were fair and we are satisfied with the work that they did. Water Fixers also took care of the leak detection themselves, which was really convenient so we did not have to have two different companies involved. We highly recommend Water Fixers for any plumbing job small or large."

"Vortex Filtration Inc is a excellent company with vast experience & knowledge in conditioning potable well water. I recommend Vortex Filtration Inc to design build and install their patented Vortex water system to solved all well water conditioning issues. My client had a problem for over tens years prior to the installation of the Vortex system. Once installed, the well water in the holding tank was crystal clear. Thanks Vortex!"

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Hard water isn’t necessarily bad for you. In some ways, it’s good for you. If you’re deficient in magnesium or calcium, hard water can give you a mineral boost that you wouldn’t get with soft water. However, this is where the benefits of hard water pretty much stop. Hard water can cause many minor inconveniences and lead to costly, premature replacements of your water-using appliances.

There are several things that can shorten the life of a water softener. Homes with very hard water may have to replace the unit sooner because the water softener works harder to filter out the hard minerals. High water usage and infrequent maintenance can also put more strain on a water softener.

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.

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.

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.
