In the spring of 1989, hometown boy Bill Wix opened a water conditioning business that he called Wix Water Works. For the 8 years previous to this, Bill worked for another water conditioning business. Deciding to take “the plunge” and start his own business was a major event in his life. Bill operated the business from 1989-2016 before handing the reins to his son Robert in 2017. Robert grew up in the business and after his high school graduation in 2000, became a full time employee. Over the years, Wix Water Works has had several employees. At the present time, Wix has 3 fulltime employees: Shane Carlson (cousin) heads up deliverys and service calls and has been on board since June 2010. Susan Rewerts is our administrative assistant and has worked for Wix for the past 24 years. Bill also still works for the company. The staff at Wix Water Works is made up of friendly, competent workers with the best interests of their customers in mind. Honesty and dedication to our client's water needs is our utmost responsibility. Wix Water Works is happy to service both residential and commercial operations. We provide sales and rentals of water softeners, water coolers, iron filters, reverse osmosis drinking water systems, ultraviolet lights, and chemical feed systems.

Working with the family-owned and operated Hellenbrand manufacturing company of Waunakee, Wisconsin, Wix Water Works sells and rents only high quality water treatment equipment. We firmly stand behind our products and services.

Residential and business water treatment systems. Water softeners, UV lights. We will analyze your water for contaminants such as chlorine, low pH, iron, bacteria, and devise a system to suit your needs. Treat your water from the source, as it enters your home, so whether you are drinking it, cooking with it or bathing in it, your water is pure.

"The process was quick and easy. I just provided a water sample. It was determined that I had high levels of chlorine in our drinking water. I was able to solve my water problems with only one filter. Why did I wait years to have this done? Now I can be confident that our water is safe. Highly recommended."

"These guys can't change a wax ring on a toilet. Literally. They eventually got mine replaced at 6pm on a Friday and they were ready to give up at 5 but their boss told them to stay until done. After they got it ( it took 5 guys, 2 of them just slumbering around ), they charged me $300 for a wax ring . I've got nothing to gain by leaving this review, mainly I wanted to leave one in order to warn people to stay away from this company."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Whether or not your water softener installation requires a permit depends on where you live; some municipalities only let certified plumbers and electricians pull the necessary permits and complete the work, others only require a professional to sign off on the work, and some don’t mandate permits at all. You can contact your local building department to find out, but you can also ask a local water softener installer or plumber to see if a permit is necessary. They will usually pull the permits for you and can help close them out after the work is complete.

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.

It’s sometimes possible to install a water softener yourself, but it’s usually better to hire a water softener professional to get the job done. Water softeners involve plumbing and electrical work, which usually require permits and a certified expert to sign off on the work. Not only is it dangerous to work with these utility lines, but it’s also not legal in many areas. Plus, improper installation or system sizing might not fix your hard water issue and could lead to an increased risk of leaks, fires, and other property damage. 

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

Yes, a water softener can remove scale deposits. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, after you add a water softener to your home, “gradually the softer water will dissolve limescale scale deposits and remove the problem entirely.” Installing a water softener—or water descaler—will also help prevent new scale deposits from forming.
