"Brad came by to inspect our very old water softener that had stopped working. He determined it needed to be replaced and had a new one installed for us the following Monday. He was very informative and didnâ t charge us an arm and a leg. I highly recommend Maineâ s Best Water Treatment."

"The company's responsiveness to our urgent situation was extraordinary. The owner made a 60 mile trip to examine our situation on Sunday morning! He expected at least a week before they could do the work, but he got it done the next morning so that we would have safe water...we had been waiting for another contractor for more than 3 months! The installed radon mitigation system has performed flawlessly. We are grateful and confidently give AquaMax our highest recommendation."

"This year, my shop was in the basement (I make turned wooden bowls) radon level inexplicably increased from the 2.5 - 4.0 level to 8.0 - 11.0 level. I decided I was not going to work down there unless I did something about radon abatement. The guys said I needed one port under my basement floor, but I opted for two --- one near the exit port of the system and one in the center of the house. I had crushed stone and a vapor barrier under the floor, but radon was still getting in. After the installation lasting 3 hours, twenty-seven hours after install, the level was 0.83. Now after 1 week the level is 0.48 I am ok with that. I have not seen the results from the lab yet, but my continuous meter has been a good indication of what is happening. I am concerned now about radon in my drinking water, but cannot comment on that yet. Dick P Alna, ME"

Water Softeners FAQs, answered by experts

You can decide whether you need a water softener or water filter based on how your bathing or laundry experience is. If you notice issues like limescale buildup, dry skin, or stains on dishes—all telltale signs of hard water—you'd likely benefit from a water softener. However, if your main concern is over chemicals or bacteria in your tap water filter, and not just comfort, a filter is a better option.

Hard water stains can be a headache because they will reoccur as long as hard water flows through. Thankfully, hard water stains are not permanent. With the right tools and an appropriate cleaning routine, you can prevent hard water stains from ever building up. However, you might feel like you are stuck in a constant cleaning cycle. In that case, you may consider hiring a contractor to perform routine cleaning.

A lower-end water softener would cost around $900, not including installation. Each home has different requirements, water hardness, and number of inhabitants, so there’s a huge range in pricing—$600 to over $6,000. The average water softener repair bill is around $500, meaning it’s a much better option to repair any issues and only replace your softener if absolutely necessary. 

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.

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.
