"Mike from Allegiance Water called. I explained what my problem was. He asked me a few questions and had me look at the unit to tell him what was happening. He asked if I had ever plugged the unit into a different wall plug. I hadn't, so he waited while I got and attached an extension cord to the water softener. When I plugged the cord into a different wall plug, the control pane lite up and I was able to program the softener. Further checking the wall plug showed the bottom plug was semi functional. The unit is working now. It appears the water softener is fine and I need to replace the wall plug. It will be replaced on Saturday. The Allegiance technician was honest. He could have taken another path and charge me for unneeded repairs. Allegiance Water Services phone number is written on the front page of my water softener maintenance manual for any future service it may need."

"I would highly recommend Kyle and Pristine Plumbing. He did a great job replumbing our entire house and installing a new water heater at a price that was very affordable. Kyle always returned calls, showed up to the job on schedule and completed the job on schedule."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

The main difference between a water softener and a water filter is what they remove from the water. A water softener is specifically designed to remove hard minerals, while a filter removes a wider range of contaminants above a certain size, such as bacteria and other impurities. If your primary goal is to remove minerals, a softener is the best choice. If you want to remove various contaminants for safety or taste, a filter is more suitable. Filters are also typically less expensive to install. Depending on your water supply's specific issues, you may need to install both systems for comprehensive treatment.

Soft water is better for your hair. The minerals in hard water can dry out hair, make it brittle, and leave a film on the hair and scalp that may cause irritation. Hard water also doesn't rinse out shampoo and conditioner effectively, which can lead to product buildup that makes hair look dull and limp. You may also find you need to use more shampoo to get a good lather in hard water.

Replacing a water softener costs $200 to $6,000, depending on the capacity of the water softener, the type of water softener, and the amount of people living in your home. An ion exchange water softener is the most common type and costs $500 to $3,000. Water distillers, which cost $1,200 to $4,000, and dual-tank models, which cost $1,000 to $5,000, are definitely pricey, but they offer more filtration or capacity, respectively.

Hard water stains can be a headache because they will reoccur as long as hard water flows through. Thankfully, hard water stains are not permanent. With the right tools and an appropriate cleaning routine, you can prevent hard water stains from ever building up. However, you might feel like you are stuck in a constant cleaning cycle. In that case, you may consider hiring a contractor to perform routine cleaning.

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.
