"Jack Rasmussen came to the house and listened to our immediate needs for plumbing. He had some excellent suggestions. Example: even though our home is in good shape, we did not realize this particular home did Not have "shut off" valves behind the toilet and under the sink. Once our plumbing was scheduled, Master Plumber - Jason - did an "Outstanding" job. He was very personable, but also knows his trade extremely well. We had a last minute request to get a very old main "shutoff valve" replaced. Jack Rasmussen OK'd our request, and Jason had absolutely no problem accomplishing the additional request with kindness and precision. We would Highly Recommend Master Plumbing (out of Albert Lea, MN) for your needs. We have two more phases of plumbing required and look forward to using them again. *A big THANKS to both Jack Rasmussen & Jack's Master Plumber - Jason. Sincerely, Leonard & Mary - Very Satisfied Customer"

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Whether you need a license or permit for water softener installation depends on your location. Some municipalities require the installer to hold a plumbing license, while others may only require a permit and an inspection. In some cases, both a permit and a licensed installer are necessary, and some areas have no requirements at all. Often, only certified plumbers and electricians are allowed to pull the necessary permits. To find out the specific regulations in your area, you can contact your local building department. Alternatively, a local water softener installer or plumber will be familiar with the requirements and can typically pull the permits 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 tools like Angi’s state licensing tool to verify an installer's license status.

A single shower consumes an average of over 17 gallons, while brushing your teeth with the water running uses up to four unnecessary gallons. Watering the lawn spreads hundreds of gallons of water across the yard each time. Limiting water usage in these areas can significantly cut down your water bill.

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.

Most experts agree there’s not much difference health-wise between hard water versus soft water. That said, hard water is more likely to cause skin dryness and issues that go along with it, like an itchy or flaky scalp. Hard water can also decrease the life span of your household appliances and make it more difficult for soap to do its job.

Softener systems extend appliance life spans, improve skin and hair health, and reduce pipe buildup by removing minerals like calcium and magnesium.
