"It went good. Randy took time and inspected all my drain lines and water lines. Ended up the clog was so bad he could not unstop it. After inspecting all my drains he made a recommendation to get all of the copper lines out and replace with pvc and found i had 3 splits in copper lines i was unaware of. Then he noticed my copper water lines had a couple very small leaks around the sink and the hot water heater. He recommended that I replace them and he installed new peck lines. Was a lot more than expected but it need to really be done. Great service, very friendly and professional."

I have been in building trades in the greater Cincinnati area for over 10 years.

"Pro: 1. Quick Turnaround (Called on Sunday , came fixing the leakage on Monday.) 2. Free evaluation (they will come out to test and estimate the repair cost before they start working on it) It went very well. Called 3 other companies on Angie's List, they all either went into voicemail or wanna charge a few hundreds before they even come checking the issues. Will definitely recommend to my neighbors in Highlands."

Water Softeners FAQs, answered by experts

Most of the U.S. has hard water, especially across portions of the West and Midwest. The areas with the hardest water include parts of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, Wyoming, Illinois, North and South Dakota, Ohio, and New York. You’ll find soft water in parts of New England, the Southeast, the Pacific Northwest, and Hawaii.

The chemicals in a water softener can wear down the anode rod in the heater and shorten its life span. However, for most people, the benefits of the softener outweigh this potential drawback.

Have a plumber inspect the anode rod annually for damage, as replacing the anode rod is far less expensive than replacing the entire water heater.

While it depends on how complicated the unit and installation is, it takes two to four hours to install a water softener unit, on average. It might take longer if pipes need to be replaced. You should make sure the installation area is clear of any objects that might get in the way before you begin.

Experts recommend that you put two to four bags of potassium chloride in your water softener every month. This amount depends on how much is in the bag (40 pounds is most common) and what your water softener manufacturer recommends. For more specific advice, talk to a water softener pro in your area and read the manual that came with your system.

You should not use a water conditioner with a water softener because a water conditioner changes the chemistry of the water and causes the ion exchange in a softener to be ineffective. Choose a water softener if you have hard water or well water, and use a water conditioner if you need to remove certain contaminants.
