"Wonderful! What an amazing company! I worked with Megan in the office and she answered my 103 questions about the softener and the water system. She said I would stop buying bottle water after installing it, I didn't believe her....but I haven't bought bottle water in over a month. The service tech that installed was great too and did great with my dog, who can be a jerk. Would I recommend them? So much so that I bought another system for our family lake house!"

"Ethan is really a good person who cares only about solving your issue at the best price. He replaced my water softener system and late the same night he replaced my water heater as well. His price is half of the big shops and i’m 100% satisfied and will only use him for my water processing needs."

"I initially called for a service call because it didn't feel like our water was being softened and the softener wasn't using salt. He looked it over, reminded me that it was 17 years old, tested the water, and said it was time for a new one. I've worked with Plumbing Heating paramedics for our furnace and air conditioning. They are great to work with, and I've found their techs to be very professional."

"It was still operating fine but it turned out that they discovered that I have iron filter water softener. There was a test that bypassed iron filter and I have perfect water pressure again. It was a waste of call. I had a bad iron filter that was so clogged up with gunk that it wasn't passing water at that point. They had to charge me $50 service call. Maybe I would have figured it myself. It was embarrassing that I didn’t find the problem myself. I have no problem with them at all. I would call them in a heartbeat for anything. They did it professionally and quickly. If I ever need them again, I would be the first one to call them. I got them through Angie’s List. I check Angie’s List any time before I need to have any work done. With the lightning strike, I was pretty desperate. Angie’s List is a big help."

"The person who came to inspect my sump pump was very professional and spoke to me about the issues I could have if I do not keep the sump pump area clean.  He also spoke to me about the water softener and the drain by my hot water heater.  He did not charge me a lot for the visit and informed of things I could do to save money.

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

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.

A good hardness level for drinking water can vary based on personal preferences, but an ideal level is 3.5 to 7 GPG. This means your water isn’t soft or hard. However, some people prefer the “fresh” taste from the minerals in hard water, while others like the smoother, “slippery” texture of soft water.

The most effective way to fix hard water in your shower is by installing a whole-home water softening system. This system treats water as it enters your home, removing the minerals that cause hardness before they can reach your shower or any other fixtures. While this is the most comprehensive solution, other methods are often temporary fixes. For a more affordable and shower-specific option, you can install a water-softening showerhead or a shower filter. However, these filters are generally less effective and may not remove all the contaminants that lead to limescale and hard water stains. By implementing a water softening solution, you can expect a reduction in mineral deposits and enjoy the benefits of cleaner-feeling hair and skin.

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.

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.
