Customers say: Quick response

"I was very impressed with the follow up calls. Marlene was patient and called back multiple times. When I finally scheduled the appointment Tom was professional and thorough in his assessment. Another company told me I needed to replace parts on my water filter system that would take months to order. Tom, said they just needed set properly and it will work. The best part was a flat fee for the service call and parts if needed. I was so happy I can't thank you enough. Honesty should be rewarded!"

"Able explained every part and what its performance is. I went from taking washing a load of clothes 2 hours to because of the lack of water pressure to 35 minutesâ ¦. The price is really fair !!!! I got to hold my new pump before it was put into the ground 300 hundred feet. So grateful for getting someone so trustworthy! I highly recommend Able Well to everyone!"

"We had the reverse osmosis put in for our drinking water. Then we had the whole house filtration system put in. Justin and Charlie tested our water for free and gave us the results. They were great in explaining everything about the water systems. We made an appointment to have the installation of everything done the next week. The installers were great and answered any and all questions we had. We would highly recommend Justin and ClearWave Water Solutions!"

"A&F Plumbing did a great job. They relocated the Washer box, moved the water heater, and added a external/outside water line. A&F tech, Gary was on time and very effecient with completing the job. The estimate was on Friday, and the work was started and completed on Monday. All in all, very prompt service with quality workmanship. I would easily recommend A&F to others."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Most experts agree there’s not much difference health-wise between hard water versus soft water. That said, hard water is more likely to cause skin dryness and issues that go along with it, like an itchy or flaky scalp. Hard water can also decrease the life span of your household appliances and make it more difficult for soap to do its job.

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. 

A water softener is a worthwhile investment if you live in an area with hard water. While hard water is safe to drink, it contains minerals like calcium and magnesium that can cause significant problems over time. These minerals build up inside pipes, reducing water flow and eventually corroding the plumbing system, which can lead to leaks and a shortened lifespan. Hard water also damages fixtures and appliances, potentially resulting in costly repairs. Additionally, it makes soaps and detergents less effective, meaning you'll use more product to get things clean. By installing a water softener, you can prevent these issues. The initial investment is often recouped through long-term savings, including lower energy bills, reduced appliance and plumbing maintenance, and spending less on soap and cleaning supplies. Other benefits include cleaner linens, dishes, and clothing, as well as softer water that is gentler on your skin and hair. In some areas, a water softener can also increase your home's value, making it a valuable long-term investment.

Yes, a water softener can remove scale deposits. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, after you add a water softener to your home, “gradually the softer water will dissolve limescale scale deposits and remove the problem entirely.” Installing a water softener—or water descaler—will also help prevent new scale deposits from forming.

The average cost to install a water softener, including the system and labor, is approximately $1,500. However, the total price can range widely from $600 to $6,000. For some complete systems, the cost may be between $800 and $2,500. Labor for the installation typically costs between $150 and $1,000.

The final price is influenced by several factors, including:

  • System type, capacity, and complexity

  • Home size and household water demands

  • Water hardness levels

  • Accessibility of the installation site and the extent of plumbing work required

  • Whether new electrical work is needed

  • The professional hired and any local permit costs
