"Gordon's service tech (Andrew) called to let us know he was 20 minutes away, which was exactly the time we were expecting him. He was courteous, professional and accommodating, and took time to patiently answer our many questions. He pointed out the problem we had with the softener, corrected it, and gave us tips on proper maintenance going forward. Overall, we were impressed with his knowledge, friendliness, and professionalism. Everything you would expect from a quality company like Gordon Water!"

I had extremely hard water according to the test strips perform by a recognize professional contractor. I was getting tired of having calcium and/or magnesium deposits all over the fixtures.

It is not only effective but also impressively limited maintenance. It operates quietly and efficiently, providing soft water without the need for constant attention. The system seamlessly integrates into my home, and the benefits have been evident from day one. From reduced mineral buildup to the silkier feel on my skin, this water softener has made a significant difference in my daily routine.

"When we bought this house we were planning to renovate the basement. The previous owner had represented that it had never taken on water. The first weekend we were here, however, a torrential rainstorm caused the basement to flood. We realized we needed to waterproof it before we could do anything else, and decided that drain tiling was the safest way to go. Greg was phenomenally responsive from the start. He was very clear about what needed to be done and how they would do it. He also described some optional work but was explicit that it was optional and if it didn't fit within our budget that was that, and he wasn't going to push it the slightest bit. His quote blew away the bigger, well-known firm and was less than or on a par with some others. He also agreed to demo the walls for a slight extra charge, which otherwise would have been a huge convenience for us. Between then and the start of work I emailed him repeatedly with various questions and he responded almost instantly. When his workers took down the paneling we got the unpleasant news that we had huge cracks in the walls that would need to be tuckpointed and in one area a big chunk of foundation was jutting from the wall. That section of the foundation would need to be replaced and a support beam installed. We were more or less at Greg's mercy at this point -- we weren't going to halt work and bring in a series of guys to quote the tuckpointing & repair -- but Greg gave us an estimate of $2,600-$3,000. We can't know for sure, but suspect that this price was more than fair, and Greg stuck to it even though we think the work turned out to be more than they expected. The project manager, Jim, was fantastic to work with throughout, very communicative and accomodating, and the crew of five guys or so was extremely friendly and professional. All in all, A Perfect Crawlspace was a pleasure to work with and we could not be happier with the results. "
"Stay Dry took the stress and worry out of the entire waterproofing process. The entire company was great, from the initial appointment, to the installation crew. I would highly recommend Stay Dry!"
"Hired Clear and Simple Water service after speaking with 5 different companies in the area. Brian discussed options and provided a plan to "fix" my water. First time on well water (15 hardness, with 2.5 ppm Ferrous Iron) and was used to city water systems. Installed a water softener, RO system, and UV sterilization. Quick, easy install. Really happy with the service and would recommend them to anyone. My water is great to drink, shower with, and the build-up is gone from my faucets."
"Canney's was here the next day and replaced the water softener. Got all the instruction on operation and so on, and was completed in a couple hours. I could see a great improvement in my water quality right away. Very Happy with Canney's !"
You can use a commercial water repellent treatment for glass on your shower doors to prevent water spots. Take care to only apply the product to glass. Letting air circulate also helps prevent water spots, as water is less likely to remain on the glass for a long time with good air circulation. Run your vent fan, open a window, and leave the shower door open for about half an hour after using the shower.
Generally, it is safe to bathe in yellow water, as the color is often caused by iron, tannins, or rust, which won't harm your skin. Soap will still clean you effectively, though the water might leave stains. However, if the water has an unusual smell or you suspect contamination, avoid bathing and contact a plumber for an inspection. A professional can also help if you find bathing in yellow water problematic and want to determine how to get your water clear again.
You can install a water softener system by turning off the water supply, draining the water, and then connecting your device to the waterline. Next, you’ll fill your tank with the recommended amount of salt or brine (whichever your unit calls for; be sure to read the instructions). Turn the water supply on and check for leaks. You can opt to let your water run for a few minutes, then test it using strips.
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.
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.
