"Damien arrived on time and determined our issue quickly and corrected our clogged pipes. We also asked him to check out another issue. He stayed and fixed this issue as well. He also cleaned everything up before leaving. A true professional. We will definitely be hiring him again and recommending him to all of our friends. Thanks again Damien"

"Wow! Unbelievable! If we ever have a water problem again, Pioneer will be the only waterproofing company that we call. We were getting some water in our basement which has a stack-stone foundation and radiant floor heating. We interviewed three companies and were particularly concerned about a solution that would stop the water without compromising the radiant tubes that were in the floor. Initially, Pioneer recommended a baseboard system that would run along the outside of the wall. Upon inspection, Mike Oliveira discussed a traditional drain to sump pump solution. We reiterated our concern about puncturing a tube in the floor and Mike assured us that he and his team would hand chisel potential problem areas to avoid the tubing. Moreover, this solution would save us roughly $2K and give us a lifetime guarantee vs. a 25 year guarantee on the baseboard system. The team showed up on time, cleared a 50' span of concrete by Noon, uncovered two sections of radiant tubing without puncturing the line, installed the moisture barrier, sump pump and new concrete by 4 p.m. They had to drill through a hefty header board to connect the pump line to an existing drainage line that carries water away from home and that was completed by 5:30 p.m. Mike came back in a week and we tested the fix using free-flow from our sprinkler system -- it worked perfectly. Subsequently we've had some consistent spring rain and absolutely no water in the basement. The team (including sales, service, billing, installation) was professional, courteous and available when we had questions. They saved us money, fixed our problem and provided a lifetime guarantee. We're both ecstatic and amazed!"

"After spending 2 days trying to find someone to replace my hot water heater, Home Advisor recommended this company. They fit me into their schedule the same day and it was installed about 4 hours after my initially contact with them. Casey and Phil were great. Had them look at a couple of other minor future projects to do while they were here. Will definitely hire them again."

"Smooth experience beginning to end. We decided to treat our well water rather than switch to town water and PWS was helpful in designing the appropriate system to provide whole house filtering along with RO drinking water. Expert installation by Rick who explained the system and how to maintain it really well. The whole process from sales contact to in home water testing to install took around 2 weeks."

"I highly recommend Cliff Cummings Water Services, David, and the team. David is 4th generation in this business, even his son followed in his footsteps. He knows this business inside and out, it is not just a job for him. He impressed upon us if we were dissatisfied in ANY way to give him a call so he could address the issue. You don't find that kind of customer service anymore. They are: Knowledgeable Punctual Reliable Trustworthy Affordable Customer service friendly I've wanted to install a water softener for years. I am not sure why we waited?! My hairdresser is going to thank me ;) We have noticed an immediate difference and in the long run, we will save money. How will this happen? We will use less: soap, shampoo, conditioner, dish detergent, etc. The color in my hair will stay longer allowing me to go another week before coloring it again We will save on all the bottled water we buy. Sorry Poland Springs! We will need to use less lotion because the water softener has helped with dry skin My kid's scalps won't continue to dry out and flake so we don't need to buy special shampoo We couldn't be more pleased! Thank you Cliff Cummings Water Services, David, and team!"

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

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.

Choosing involves understanding water hardness levels, household size, desired features, and consulting professionals experienced in suitable system types.

Water softeners have many benefits. The most important one is converting previously hard water—water with too many minerals—to more usable, easier water. When we say easier water, we mean water that’s easier to digest, less harsh on skin and clothes, and builds up less in the water system. Softer water may lead to lower energy costs and will extend the lifespan of all appliances that use water.

You can install a water softener system by turning off the water supply, draining the water, and then connecting your device to the waterline. Next, you’ll fill your tank with the recommended amount of salt or brine (whichever your unit calls for; be sure to read the instructions). Turn the water supply on and check for leaks. You can opt to let your water run for a few minutes, then test it using strips. 

The process of inspecting your water softener system is similar.

No, hard water isn’t dangerous. The added calcium in hard water can contribute to good bone health. However, it can also cause dry skin and hair. If you have dry skin or hair, consider using a water-softening system to help minimize the minerals in your water. Plus, these systems can also add some sodium to your diet.
