"Scott was super informative and helpful in showing us the difference in the water softener systems. We love that we now have the added alkaline water â on tap!â"
"The reason I didn't use them is because someone came that very day instead of the next week only schedule that was available at Ensor Plumbing. The other company was someone that the other person in the house knew and used. So it wasn't a bad reason for me not using them."
"They were up front with what is wrong. Provided explanation of the quote. Asked permission to get access to places. They explain the reasoning for the cost and the risks if ignored. Pricing was fair. Went above an beyond to solve the water heater issue we had. Even calling in an electrician to help with a fix. They were on-time to early on their scheduled appointments. Excellent customer service."

"I was pleasantly surprised. They had to dig up the front yard and when they were done they excavated it and put down grass seed and straw. They did the job very quickly so my tenants could have running water. They were a great experience. I'll use them again."
"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!"
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.
Hard water isn’t necessarily bad for you. In some ways, it’s good for you. If you’re deficient in magnesium or calcium, hard water can give you a mineral boost that you wouldn’t get with soft water. However, this is where the benefits of hard water pretty much stop. Hard water can cause many minor inconveniences and lead to costly, premature replacements of your water-using appliances.
Choosing involves understanding water hardness levels, household size, desired features, and consulting professionals experienced in suitable system types.
Whether you need a permit or license for a water softener installation depends on your location, as requirements vary significantly. Some municipalities require the installer to hold a plumbing license, some mandate a permit and an inspection, and others require both. In some areas, no special permit or license is needed at all.
To determine the rules in your area, you can contact your local building department or consult a local water softener installer or plumber. Often, only certified professionals are authorized to pull the necessary permits, and they will typically handle the entire permitting process for you. Regardless of local laws, it is always recommended to hire a licensed professional to ensure the system is sized and installed correctly. You can use Angi’s state licensing tool to check an installer’s license status.
The primary difference between a water softener and a water filter lies in what they remove from the water. A water softener is designed to remove hard minerals like calcium and magnesium. In contrast, a water filter has a broader effect, removing various contaminants above a certain size, which can include bacteria and other impurities.
To decide which you need, consider your goal. If you want to eliminate hard minerals, choose a softener. If you want to remove a wide range of contaminants, a filter is the better option. Filters are also generally less expensive to install. Depending on your water supply, you may need to install both for comprehensive treatment.
