"1st Choice Water Solutions completed the repairs to my sprinkler system, including replacing nine sprinkler heads and the control panel. Plus they adjusted and verified that the other sprinkler heads were functioning and covering the areas that needed watering. Earl and his wife did an outstanding job for us, they were very timely in responding to my request and completed our project in record time. Their price was extremely fair and they completed our project the same day as they gave us the estimate (on a Sunday, no less). We will definitely hire them again and we did... They are going to add two more zones to our sprinkler system. We are very happy customers!!!"

"I have used them twice before and had been happy with their responsiveness and quality of their work. This time I was given 4 different delivery times and I had to keep calling on the day they were supposed to install and get the status. Prices started at $1230, then went to $1690.00 on the phone when it was discovered I needed a power vent. Took a week to get the water heater delivered and then after they installed it I was presented for a bill for $2200.00. When I called and asked why the price went up, they said the price of the water heater went up since I ordered it a week ago. No one called to let me know that the price had changed. We settled for $1800 still $110 over what was quoted. The plumbers were very good, respectful and professional. It is a shame that the office staff doesn't reflect the their plumbers' excellent qualities."

"Ken and Danny did a fantastic job of installing a whole home water treatment for our townhome. Ken explained everything throughly and Danny installed it all within half a day. Carbon filter, UV Light, and Reverse Osmosis system for under the kitchen sink. I added on a replacement water heater as well since the old one was on expired time in my opinion. I would absolutely recommend this team to anyone because of their honesty, professionalism and work ethics."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

It’s not a good idea to oversize your water softener. Doing so will mean the tank doesn’t get full, which can lead to channeling. This leads to a large portion of the resin beads not being utilized and the beads at the bottom of the tank being overused. Over time, this will reduce the efficiency of your system, not to mention that the upfront cost of an oversized softener is unnecessarily high. If you have a timed regeneration cycle rather than a demand-based one, you’ll also spend far more on replacing salt than you need to.

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.

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

Whether you need a permit or license for a water softener installation depends on your location, as requirements vary significantly. Some municipalities require the installer to hold a plumbing license, some mandate a permit and an inspection, and others require both. In some areas, no special permit or license is needed at all.

To determine the rules in your area, you can contact your local building department or consult a local water softener installer or plumber. Often, only certified professionals are authorized to pull the necessary permits, and they will typically handle the entire permitting process 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 Angi’s state licensing tool to check 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.
