"as installed in 2010, which is correctThe plumbers did arrive about 1 hour and 40 minutes into the 2 hour window.  I explained the problem.  They asked me to show where the drain went in the basement.  They estimated it was about 55 feet from the kitchen sink that would need to be cleaned.  They said they would perform a whole house plumbing inspection while there.  While one plumber worked on the drain the other checked for natural gas leaks, there were none, and checked the water heater.  They told me the water heater was installed in 2010, which is correct.  He also told me the anode rod needed replacing.  I googled anode rods and found 2 references from plumbing supply companies that verified everything he told me.  They also sold me an enzyme to maintain the drain.

"Mr. Paul is a extremely knowledgeable and compassionate about  his business.  He detected the problem of mold in my basement  immediately.  He was able to locate the source of the water intrusion.  He was up front about the problem and what is would cost to fix it.  He  gave us multiple options on the prices.  I am grateful for his honesty.  I will definitely use him and refer him to my friends.  Thank you Mr. Paul.

"Initially, it went well. But I didn’t know what I didn’t know. The diagnosis of the problem was incomplete. Two large basement wall cracks (clearly visible at the time because wet dry wall had been removed) also contributed to the water issues and they were never discussed. In the fall of 2017, I came home from an overseas trip to find 2 inches of mud in my basement which had poured in over the drain tile installed by PermaJack. I reached out to the company a couple of times and was told I would be contacted the next week for an inspection. But this never happened. On the advice of my real estate agent, I turned to a different company for an inspection. The cracks were clearly diagnosed as a major issue. And when the drain tile/sump pump system installed by PermaJack was inspected, it was found that the drain tile was improperly installed. The pipe laying in the drain tile reservoir was twisted so that only a third of the holes in the pipe would even come into contact with water at any one time. In other words the system was easily overwhelmed and shouldn’t have been. In addition, the system should have been installed under the sill, the wooden board I left in place after ripping out the dry wall. Because it was installed in front of the sill, it never came into contact with the corner of the foundation and water could easily come into the basement over the drain tile. I realize at the time of the installation there was lots of water damage throughout St. Louis from the massive spring storm. But in retrospect, it seems like the job was rushed and for that reason it was not done properly. Also, when I reached out to the company to inspect their work, they were fairly unresponsive. They did say they would call me, but they never did."

It went excellent.  We have used Spenglers in the past for a complete Water Heater replacement, their office staff are spot on, their field techs are professional, personable and knowledgeable.  They arrived on time, I was notified by the office when they were on the way, they made their scheduled arrival, and the entire job took less than 4 hours.  The quality of materials is outstanding, the lines were all soldered in without any leaks, and the technician even took the time to show me how the new faucet could be tightened if leaks appear later on.  This job is now two months complete and I have no leaks, and I can (finally) wash the cars and water the front flower beds without hauling hose or buckets.  Awesome job for the Spengler's team!

"Not good. The water leaks had caused black mold that had to be repaired. When repairs were completed 3 months later, the valves still leaked from the stem when turned on. It was past 60 days so I had to pay another $100 service fee to have the water leaks fixed. He tightened the packing and quoted $350 to replace the valves. Sheesh."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

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

Drinking hard water is not known to have any negative health impacts. Using hard water can lead to dry skin and hair, and the minerals in hard water can build up in pipes, faucets, and appliances. Hard water is more of a threat to your plumbing than it is to your health.

A lower-end water softener would cost around $900, not including installation. Each home has different requirements, water hardness, and number of inhabitants, so there’s a huge range in pricing—$600 to over $6,000. The average water softener repair bill is around $500, meaning it’s a much better option to repair any issues and only replace your softener if absolutely necessary. 

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.

Hard water is not considered unhealthy and is safe to drink, cook with, and bathe in. It doesn't pose a risk to your physical health and can even help you get enough essential minerals like calcium in your diet. However, it can negatively affect skin and hair. Using hard water for washing can contribute to dry skin, an itchy scalp, and may worsen conditions like eczema by altering the pH balance. Additionally, some people do not like the taste of hard water.
