Everyone wants good water in their home. Obtaining that in the Tampa Bay area generally requires some form of home water treatment. Mr. Water sells and services water treatment products of the highest quality and excellent value to homeowners and businesses throughout the Tampa Bay area. We would like to show you options of water softening, water conditioning and drinking water filters and provide you a full understanding of each.

"I called Mr. Water to come out and take a look at our water softener as it did not seem to be working correctly. Steve Crocker quickly came out, showed me that I had been using it wrong, and helped me get it back on the right track. Super service."

"Called FWT for an estimate on a water softener/conditioner and they were quick to send Chris out to provide a reasonable estimate. He answered all my questions and made a recommendation on size and type of unit. The next week Jason and Jacob showed up on-time for the installation. They did an outstanding job of placement of the unit and routing of plumbing and electrical lines. Very professional! I would highly recommend FWT. Our water is now perfect! After living on the beach for the last 1.5 years with hard water, I wish I would have made this investment sooner."

15% OFF FOR ALL NEW CUSTOMERS! Central Florida's #1 Residential Plumbing Company! Providing services for all residential plumbing repairs, Leak Detection, Re-piping, In-line video drainage inspection, water heater installation and repair, faucet/toilet repair and replacement, garbage disposals, all septic and sewer repair and replacement. Convenient upfront flat rate pricing. Family owned and operated since 1973!

"I do not recommend. Omar was unable to restore my system to its original condition; he had to remove the irrigation valve because he did not have the fittings to attach it to the pipes, so now my system has no irrigation valve. I asked for a discount because parts of my system were being removed so that the leak could be fixed, but the owner informed me that I should have called an irrigation company. They claim to be REPIPING EXPERTS with expertise in drain line repairs and sewers, but do not bring basic plumbing fittings to the job. If I were the owner of a company and my employee did not have what he needed to do the job, I would either offer the customer a discount or I would send the employee back out to do the job right. At least the leak was solved."

"David Spence did it again!! We had 2 bathrooms that needed to be gutted and one a conversion from tub to shower only. Not only did David Spence come in at a fair price, everything was done professionally and in a timely manner. Tile for second bath was running behind so instead of having us wait for it to come in, he gave us a choice to go pick out tile from Floor and Decor, which we did and the bathroom looks beautiful. Great customer service! We love that Ched and Tristan took time to answer any concerns we had along the way and they kept us up to date on the daily work. Both of our bathrooms are totally unrecognizable from where we started. You can’t go wrong hiring DAVID SPENCE INC. for your remodeling needs. We would definitely recommend him and his team."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

It does cost money to have a water softener, both for installation and ongoing maintenance. Additionally, the taste of your water will be altered, especially if sodium is the ingredient you use to run the water softening system. Look up exactly what your chosen water softener will remove and what will remain because not all systems provide the same results.

A good hardness level for drinking water can vary based on personal preferences, but an ideal level is 3.5 to 7 GPG. This means your water isn’t soft or hard. However, some people prefer the “fresh” taste from the minerals in hard water, while others like the smoother, “slippery” texture of soft water.

Drinking hard water is not known to have any negative health impacts. Using hard water can lead to dry skin and hair, and the minerals in hard water can build up in pipes, faucets, and appliances. Hard water is more of a threat to your plumbing than it is to your health.

A tankless water heater should be at least 10 feet away from a water softener, although the pros you hire for water softener installation can help you determine the correct distance. These two units need to have some distance between them to prevent hot water from the tankless water heater from flowing backward into the water softener when it runs a regeneration cycle.

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.
