"All of my toilets in the house backed up. Called wild Waters plumbing who responded promptly. Found a plug in my septic tank and used a shovel to remove it. Refused to charge a trip charge despite my insistence. This is a highly ethical company focused on customer service. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a honest plumber. I will certainly be using them in the future for other needs."

"Kevin was excellent. He looked over the problem, gave me suggestions and options for getting the job done, and explained everything to me in ways I could understand because I have no idea what needed to be done. Kevin fixed my problem (the same day no less) and I was totally satisfied with his work. If I have any other plumbing issue I won't even bother calling anyone else. Thank you Kevin I appreciate your help."

"After consulting with Walter I decided not to do an install of a tankless water heater and instead replace my current 40 gal water heater. He did not try to push the install of a more expensive and construction heavy tankless heater. Walter was also able to replace the water heater the same day, total 6 hours elapsed, 4 hours actual work time. The owner Donny also helped out. Both were very professional and informed me of everything they were doing. All prices were provided up front and any extra work or part replacement was explained and why it needed to by upgraded (mainly to conform to current housing code). I would recommend this company to anyone that asks for my opinion on my choice of plumbers."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

While it depends on how complicated the unit and installation is, it takes two to four hours to install a water softener unit, on average. It might take longer if pipes need to be replaced. You should make sure the installation area is clear of any objects that might get in the way before you begin.

Whether you need a license or permit for water softener installation depends on your location. Some municipalities require the installer to hold a plumbing license, while others may only require a permit and an inspection. In some cases, both a permit and a licensed installer are necessary, and some areas have no requirements at all. Often, only certified plumbers and electricians are allowed to pull the necessary permits. To find out the specific regulations in your area, you can contact your local building department. Alternatively, a local water softener installer or plumber will be familiar with the requirements and can typically pull the permits for you. Regardless of local laws, it is always recommended to hire a licensed professional to ensure the system is sized and installed correctly. You can use tools like Angi’s state licensing tool to verify an installer's license status.

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.

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.

Some shower water softeners are effective, but this isn’t always the case. Most shower filters only filter out chlorine, not hard minerals like calcium. Other shower filters can't handle the demand in homes with very hard water. It's also important to change the filters on your shower filters. Failure to regularly swap out old filters will make the filter ineffective over time.
