"Jonathan was a lifesaver. The well circuit breaker had flipped earlier that morning. I called plumber because there was no water. The series of evenst that followed were horriffic. Plumber had flipped the well switch back, turned on the water and left. Neighbors called to tell me te basement windows were pumping out smoke. The fire deprtment came and shut everything down. I contacted Johnathan as a well specialist. That he is. He troublshooted the problem. The well switched tripped. The pump was burned out, fire, pressure valve and fittings melted. He replaced the hot water heater, all fittings and new pressure pump installed. I give Jonathan R. Habacker Pumbing, LLC the highest ratings possible. He also pointed out other future issues. I will be having him install new hot water heater, well serviced and/or replacement. HE is my only contact for well and plumbing issues. Make him yours. With much respect for quality work. Carol A. Whelan"

"Ralph was excellent. He called within minutes of me submitting the Angies List request....... and came the very next day to fix our problem. He was pleasant, down to earth, honest and did the repair quickly, solidly, and for the money he’d estimated. Overall we were very very happy with our choice to go with Ralph!!"

"EWS did a great job of explaining the system that i needed. The well water consultant came out for a no charge water analysis and consultation, she reviewed the whole install with me prior to the technicians coming and answered all of my questions. The install went flawless the technicians explained how the system is maintained and what each unit was, they even returned 2 weeks later to retest the water and make sure that the system did everything that they promised (which it did). Great company with great staff! I am so happy with the quality of my well water now."

Water Softeners FAQs, answered by experts

Softened water prevents scale deposits, reducing appliance wear, leading to energy savings and longer-lasting household fixtures.

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.

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.

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.
