"Was surprised to get a response as quickly as I did. Even more surprised that he was able to complete the job the next day. Plumbers in this area are few and far between. We have a lot of iron in our water so this system has a third tank that addresses this issue instead of a small filter that we had to replace quite frequently."

"I interviewed 3 different water purification companies, because having safe, good water is one of THE MOST IMPORTANT investments we can make in our home and for our good health (both in the short term AND in the long term). My urgent (because of my timetable) inquiry to the companies was for an estimate to install a Reverse Osmosis (RO) Purification System, knowing that was my base cost, but also knowing Iâ d inquire about the other water systems at the time of the inquiry. We have purification systems at 3 homes, therefore I know costs and some aspect of the business practices. The owners of Water Air and You, Mr and Mrs Les Strong, heard the urgency in my situation in a new condo in Peoria, and came to visit immediately. They explained that to truly purify the water, that is, to achieve the level of pure water that I wanted, the mechanism would involve 3 systems, but NOT to panic, because the price would be very good, I am a cancer surgeon at a university in Tampa, FL,, and Les and Judy conveyed warmth, encouragement, and sound information about water treatment systems. Their estimate was very fair, very comparable with what our other water treatment systems cost in Florida and in our other Home. Their company is the ONLY company that did not take advantage of our desperate timetable and needs. The installer for Water, Air and You, Phil, was just as professional and kind and knowledgeable as the owners, although his assistant was not so on par with the others. Iâ m still amazed that I almost chose the first company to respond to my request for an estimate, though it was over 3x the cost I expected for the the RO system installation ALONE. I am so glad I restrained the impulse to just â get it done.â Les and his amazing team (â ¦. ESPECIALLY Judy, his Superlady-wife) were out to visit our newly purchased condo, the very next day, and they installed the systems the following day. The professionals (â ¦ at every level) at Water Air and You listen carefully and work ever so diligently, to educate their customers about water (ie the sources of city-water, governmental mechanisms of water treatment, and why after-care of this â cleanâ water (â ¦ and I use therm VERY loosely, here) is so absolutely imperative. Les and Judy explained how different water treatment systems work and work together, to make your water safe, delicious, and enjoyable. Les and Judy entered our home with warmth, kindness, invaluable information, and absolutely NO PRESSURE, just information and options. I cannot speak highly enough about them or their company. Phil, the installer, was especially respectful of our needs, was very attentive to any drill holes and such, and he carefully cleaned up his installation debris. The company, Water Air and You, is truly one of the rare and pure examples of an honest, hard working business, holding up â old-schoolâ values, traditions, and business practices."

"There was no leakage until about three weeks ago.  The crack then reopened and water is seeping through.  We have tried to contact them.  However, they shut down their email and three phone numbers.  They will not return any messages.  It was a lifetime warranty, but that does us no good if they are out of business.

The existing problem (and why they have C's from us) is that we have completely lost contact and have no way to get resolution."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Whether you need a license or permit for water softener installation depends on your location. Some municipalities require the installer to hold a plumbing license, while others may only require a permit and an inspection. In some cases, both a permit and a licensed installer are necessary, and some areas have no requirements at all. Often, only certified plumbers and electricians are allowed to pull the necessary permits. To find out the specific regulations in your area, you can contact your local building department. Alternatively, a local water softener installer or plumber will be familiar with the requirements and can typically pull the permits 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 tools like Angi’s state licensing tool to verify an installer's license status.

No. You should never directly drain a water softener into a sewer cleanout. This practice is illegal in many areas because it could allow raw sewage to get into your drinking water and make you seriously ill. Many places have codes requiring a specific seal, pipe, and a large air gap between a water softener and a sewage cleanout. Check out Florida's Plumbing Building Code as an example of what these restrictions might look like.

It depends on the type of surface. For instance, if you’re trying to get rid of hard water deposits on glass, you can spray vinegar onto the surface and wipe it off with a soft cloth or non-abrasive sponge. However, if the deposits are on granite or natural stone, it’s better to use baking soda and water rather than vinegar or other acidic cleaners.

Installing a water softener could help reduce calcium buildup in your pool if your pool has high calcium hardness as a result of hard drinking water in your home. Pool softeners work by exchanging calcium and magnesium for sodium, so if you use softened water to top off your pool, it may help keep calcium hardness from rising over time. However, it won’t lower the calcium hardness of the water already in your pool and isn’t a practical way to control pool calcium levels. The average water softener installation cost is between $200 and $6,000.

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.
