"Comprehensive discussion of what will be done, included pictures, good discussion of the actual mechanism that removes the radon. Once scheduled the process was completed in about 3 hours - walked me through what was done. The final product looked just liked the pictures. Discussed maintenance before leaving. All went well and was pleased. Radon's now at healthy levels."

"On 5/24/2024 we called C& K (we will never call then again) because our over price sump pump we bought from c&k was not working correctly. We bought this sump pump 2 years ago. In Iowa we were in a 2 year drought. On May 24, 2024 our sump pump was only working about 1/3 of the time due to heavy rain. We called c&k to come out to look at the pump, they cut the seal around the top of the unit to raise the led. The problem was that the person that installed the pump did not screw down the ring that goes around the pump. WORKMENSHIP DEFECT SO TO COVER UP THERE ERRORS THEY DID NOT CHARGE FOR LABOR BUT CHARGED US FOR THE "SERVICE CALL" $$$$100 bucks TRIP CHARGE- HERE IS WHAT WAS ON THE INVOICE: "Found check valve came loose and sump pump not operating normally. "Check valve needs reconnected." no charge $100 bucks for there misstake (I am retired) Check this out this is how they will try and RIP YOU OFF I wanted to replace the THERMOSTAT s&k price over $700 bucks THE SAME THERMOSTAT AT LOWES IS $259 BUCKS C&K YOUR """"""FIRED"""""""""

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."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

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

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.

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.

Because it’s been through the water cycle, evaporating and becoming slightly acidic thanks to dissolved carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, rainwater tends to be naturally soft compared to groundwater, which has just been in contact with limestone. However, the natural hardness level of water always depends on where you are and other factors.

The most accurate way to determine whether you have hard water is to purchase a water test kit from a hardware store or send a tap water sample to a lab. But there are some signs you can look out for without professional testing. For instance, if you're consistently dealing with mineral stains on your glassware, windows, and shower doors, you're likely to have hard water. Hard water can also make it harder to lather and rinse soap, so if you're struggling to work up a good lather in the shower, hard water might be the culprit.
