"Scott and his team were the best!  From the time we called and met with him, he did exactly what he said he was going to do.  He called when he said he would and came out to the house on time every time.  He took care of all the permits with the county when other contractors we had called expected us to take care of that.  They were very considerate, took their muddy boots off every time they came into the house.  I highly recommend Ries Well Drilling.They took their time to do a neat job and made the project as mess free and painless for us as it could be.  The quality of water and pressure we have now compared to before is outstanding.  If you need a new well, don't hesitate to call them!

"They have done 5 jobs for me they are just great and customer service is great! I thought I needed a new water heater and instead it was a 20 dollar part that needed replaced and everything works well. I appreciate that I did not feel taken advantage of. They also replaced my 96 year old father's water heater and had to move the furnace to get to the water heater and they did all that extra work without complaint."

"Called on Wednesday 08/17/20 talked with owner Mr. Kamienski. He explained what had to be done and gave me his price over the phone. Said he could come out to do the repairs on Saturday 08/20/20 and was there right on time (actually he was early). When he and his wife arrived they both got right to work. He explained why and what he was doing as they worked. Came prepared to do the job and worked steady until it was completed. Also they were very through in their cleanup. They work very well as a team , each knowing they role in the process. We have had a few heavy rains since the repairs and have had no issues with water leakage. I would not hesitate to hire them again."

"Metamora Water Service installed a new 180' well and home water supply system. Our yard access and slop made it a challenging project. However, Metamora Water Service made it look easy. Top quality equipment and personnel for the job. I highly recommend this company if you need a new well or a repair to an existing well."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

The main difference between a water softener and a water filter is what they remove from the water. A water softener is specifically designed to remove hard minerals, while a filter removes a wider range of contaminants above a certain size, such as bacteria and other impurities. If your primary goal is to remove minerals, a softener is the best choice. If you want to remove various contaminants for safety or taste, a filter is more suitable. Filters are also typically less expensive to install. Depending on your water supply's specific issues, you may need to install both systems for comprehensive treatment.

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.

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. 

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.

There are several things that can shorten the life of a water softener. Homes with very hard water may have to replace the unit sooner because the water softener works harder to filter out the hard minerals. High water usage and infrequent maintenance can also put more strain on a water softener.
