"BUYER BEWARE: On Sept 10, 2025, BlueDrop installed a reverse osmosis system under our kitchen sink. Within hours it failed, flooding our kitchen and basement. Their own plumber confirmed a failed component from installation caused the leak. A restoration company documented saturated walls, cabinets, floors, and basement; demo/rebuild required, fans ran 24/7 for a week. BlueDrop waited a week to file a claim, then their insurer denied liability despite a 30-day workmanship/materials warranty. We?ve now gone 2+ weeks without use of our washer, dryer, or kitchen, forced to hire legal counsel, a public adjuster, and involve our insurance. One BlueDrop contact gave occasional updates, but leadership ignored direct outreach. You pay $2K+ for a filter and instead get water pouring from your basement ceiling. This has been the worst experience we?ve ever had with a company. Think very carefully before proceeding?one bad part can cause massive disruption, leave you responsible"

"They sent a young apprentice to my house on an emergency call. He was there 20 minutes said he fixed the problem. I paid him 550 dollars. The leak problem continued. I called the office and Ada the secretary was so rude. I asked if they guaranteed there work and she said not necessarily. She treated me so poorly. They just care about making money. I wish I had known how bad they are. This is why I am writing the review. When I asked why they sent an apprentice on an emergency call so responded that he was all that was available. They do not care or respect there customers."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

The license requirements for water softener installation depend on your location. Some municipalities require that the installer hold a plumbing license, some require a permit and an inspection, but no license for the installer, and some require a permit and a license for the installer. Regardless of the local laws in your area, it’s always a good idea to hire a licensed plumber or installer. These pros will install your system properly and have the experience to size the system appropriately. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to check your installer’s license status.

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.

Water softener versus water filter: which one should you choose? If you want to remove minerals, opt for a softener. If you want to remove a wide range of contaminants, go for a filter. Or, you can install both.

It does cost money to have a water softener, both for installation and ongoing maintenance. Additionally, the taste of your water will be altered, especially if sodium is the ingredient you use to run the water softening system. Look up exactly what your chosen water softener will remove and what will remain because not all systems provide the same results.

Soft water is better for your hair. The minerals in hard water can impact hair in a number of ways. It can cause the hair to dry out and become brittle, and it can require you to use more shampoo to get a good lather. The hard water may leave a film on the hair and scalp from mineral buildup, which may also cause some irritation.
