"Discovered water pouring from my 30+ year old water heater at 5:30am. Shut off water and did some preliminary cleanup before looking on line to see who to call. Noticed that Hedlund was open already at 6:30 so I called them and actually got to speak to someone (Tom, I think). He checked and said he could send a crew over about noon time which was fine. They actually called about 10:00 saying they could come right then if OK and they were here by 10:30. They looked over the situation and gave me an estimate which I thought was fine from the little bit I knew about water heaters. Also, the price included the cost of a city permit and they had to make the exhaust pipe that went into the chimney larger to meet code. Also, strangely enough the hot water faucet at the kitchen sink started dripping while they were turning water on/off to make sure it was running when it needed to be and not running when it wasn't supposed to be. And it just so happened that Hedlund had installed that faucet 2 years ago. I had the receipt for it and they determined that the packing nut needed to be replaced and they replaced it free of charge since it was only 2 years old. So with all that done, I thought the $1200 price was adequate."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

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. 

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 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.

While not everyone can detect taste differences in high-calcium water, water that has a slightly metallic taste probably has too much calcium.

While it depends on how complicated the unit and installation is, it takes two to four hours to install a water softener unit, on average. It might take longer if pipes need to be replaced. You should make sure the installation area is clear of any objects that might get in the way before you begin.
