"National water has done a great deal of work for us. When we bought our house in 2001 NWS installed our water purification system any water related needs. I highly recommend them & we will continue to use their services. My husband pays the bills so I'm not sure about the fees but they know what they're doing, professional, friendly & honest."

He connected one side a horse to water heater at basement and placed other side horse in our lundry room'm sink ( about 38ft long), then turn on the water heater, flushed about few minutes. I saw water was dripping from the horse to sink, and technician used his one hand collected little water says to me water is clean and your water heater is good."

"
After receiving a proposal for remediation of two damp crawl spaces at a cost of nearly $10,000 I sought a second opinion from a highly-rated wterproofing contractor, Waterproofing, Inc., that I found on Angie's List.  Its owner, Mr. Stephen Norfolk, came out to my house, entered and spent a considerable aomount of time in the crawl spaces, and concluded that my prolem in one of them was minimal and didn't need expensive remediation,and the source of visible water in the second crawl space was likely due to a leaking dishwasher located directly above.  In short, displaying honesty and integrity, he talked me out of contracting with his company for any water remediation work because it wasn't necessary.   This was quite a contrast to the guy from a competing company that tried to sell me an expensive process that wouldn't have solved the main problem because it is a plumber that is needed rather than a waterproofer.
I can't evaluate the work that Waterproofing Inc. performs butI can attest to their honesty and integrity.  A+."

"I hired Shawn to replace my water heater. He was fantastic- Sean and Kyle showed up exactly on time, provided excellent service at a competitive price, and provided a better warranty than anybody else around. I'd use them again in a heartbeat."

"I've used Floodbusters twice in the last two years. The first time they came out and sealed a crack in my utility room to exposed concrete. The job was solid, but the sealant they used looked a bit sloppy. I called and the same week they came out and painted over it. Now it looks good! This was in 2019. This past February 2020 I had them come out again, this time they had to remove drywall to access where the crack was. Two different men came out then the first time. They did a pretty good job. All I need now is for my drywall to be replaced and another successful job will have been done and in the books. I really appreciate this company and highly recommend!"

"I have used Roy for three items, the latest being a hot water heater replacement (mine had a super vent, hence the higher cost). I first used Roy for a subpump emergency a few years ago. He came out the same day, actually at night with little notice. He replaced the subpump quickly and professionally. Based on the great service and price fro the subpump we have used Roy for other household repair, such as clogged toliets, clogged kitchen sink etc...I highly recommend Roy and AABCO."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Yes. To get soft water, you can install a water softening system, which will replace the calcium and magnesium ions in the water with sodium or potassium ions. Water softeners cost anywhere from $200 to $6,000, depending on the size and complexity of the system. You can either install a water softener for the whole house or just at your shower heads. If you’re sensitive to sodium or potassium, you can install a salt-free water conditioner.

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.

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.

It depends on the type of surface. For instance, if you’re trying to get rid of hard water deposits on glass, you can spray vinegar onto the surface and wipe it off with a soft cloth or non-abrasive sponge. However, if the deposits are on granite or natural stone, it’s better to use baking soda and water rather than vinegar or other acidic cleaners.

Routine maintenance involves recharging the resin bed with salt or potassium, cleaning components, and periodic inspection.
