"They came to my home on Friday and the system was installed Saturday. Excellent job I would highly recommend them to anyone seeking a water treatment system. I do not itch anymore thanks to the water system, Charles and all the treatment person were great,"
"Jeff was great to work with. He gave me a systematic approach to solving some ongoing water/drainage issues we may have. He recommended first and foremost fixing a number of things his company would not benefit at all from (roof/gutters/downspouts, dehumidier) prior to us embarking upon a major project. Thus, I felt that he was honest and gave answers/suggestions that weren't "cookie cutter" and had our best interest in mind. If we do end up taking on a major basement waterproofing project after doing some of the more minor fixes he suggested, I will definitely be giving him a call to have his company do the work.
"1. removed all trash (plenty) from under house 2. leveled ground surface 3. removed all insulation; tacked up all wires to roof of crawl space; treated all joists with effective chemical to destroy mold 4. replaced vapor barrier on ground 5. attached heavy duty wrap to all walls (to within 4 inches of roof of space) and about all posts 6. placed new dehumidifier in center of space; programmed to maintain proper humidity level 7. attached lighting to illuminate space. Every step of the process done by professional, competent and efficient workers with daily supervision by "crawl doctor" himself. Entire job done in one week. My crawl space is now as clean as interior of my home. I strongly recommend this process by this provider to anyone with crawl space. Price not only competitive but at least half that of others in area who offer this process (I interviewed Orkin and Low Country). "
"Still waiting for parts after 7 days. TOMORROW IS A WEEK.. We have no water heater. My wife recently had surgery and needs higene.can we replace the water heater???? PLEASE"
"Well, the first time the replacement was ordered it was the wrong one, which of course, delayed the installation a week. When it was finally installed I had to pay an additional $850 for code upgrades. This I was not informed of by Home Shield. Then we noticed that there was water on the garage floor and found that the pipe coming in from the wall was leaking at the wall so had to call the plumbing company back out to fix it. They first tried to say it was not their fault but since there wasn't a leak before they installed they did fix it. I have used Home Shield a few times before and never had a problem. Some of the companies they use are not the best so you have to research them before you commit. I have found HS service to be good if you do your homework. At the end of the day I was without hot water for almost 3 weeks but it was do to the plumbing company they sent out."
Most experts agree there’s not much difference health-wise between hard water versus soft water. That said, hard water is more likely to cause skin dryness and issues that go along with it, like an itchy or flaky scalp. Hard water can also decrease the life span of your household appliances and make it more difficult for soap to do its job.
Selecting the right system depends on testing your water to understand the contaminants present and considering your household's water usage and specific needs, such as removing specific contaminants.
Routine maintenance involves recharging the resin bed with salt or potassium, cleaning components, and periodic inspection.
The most effective way to fix hard water in your shower is by installing a whole-home water softening system. This system treats water as it enters your home, removing the minerals that cause hardness before they can reach your shower or any other fixtures. While this is the most comprehensive solution, other methods are often temporary fixes. For a more affordable and shower-specific option, you can install a water-softening showerhead or a shower filter. However, these filters are generally less effective and may not remove all the contaminants that lead to limescale and hard water stains. By implementing a water softening solution, you can expect a reduction in mineral deposits and enjoy the benefits of cleaner-feeling hair and skin.
Softened water prevents scale deposits, reducing appliance wear, leading to energy savings and longer-lasting household fixtures.
