"Les returned my call and actually suggested that I could call another company that they recommend for potentially quicker service for drain issues. I wasn't in a hurry (out of the house) and had been happy with Zell in the past so I decided to wait (the wait was due to my needs as well as their availability). Les made two calls to confirm and showed up on time. He went right to work and got through the gunk that must have been pretty far down the pipe (traps were clear). He gave me suggestions for keeping the drain clear in the future."

"Water softener was timely installed and works fine. The issue is that the water softener installed had a plastic dial that was not in English. My home was a new construction in 2017 I contacted them in late 2018 asking for them to replace the dial that was not in English. They said they would put me on the schedule for the next week to replace it. They never showed up and I forgot about it. I recently reached out to them again to replace it, and they noted that service was completed in 2017 and asked why I didn't reach out before. I said that I did and they didn't come out. They asked me to send them a picture, which I did, and they proceeded to tell me how to operate the unit. I noted that I didn't need help operating the unit, I wanted a unit that would be in English, and directed them to the picture where the plastic dial had setting in a foreign language. There was some confusion as they thought I was talking about the display, and they proceeded to explain to me how to operate the display, and I continued to try to explain the display was not the issue, but rather the plastic dial. The conversation became tense, and there was shouting from both of us. The conversation ended with the owner saying "I don't have time to deal with this bull***" and the call ended with him asking me if I "forgot to take my medicine this morning." Professionalism aside, at the end of the day my personal expectation as a customer is to have something installed in my home in a language I can understand, and a company that will stand behind their product and make things right. The owner's response was "they make these in 17 different languages." When I tried to press whether I can get one in English, he again started talking the portions of the product that had English on it without addressing the actual problem. Overall a frustrating experience. No complaints about the initial service or the product itself, only the lack of professionalism, not following through, and not standing behind the product."

FAQs for water softener service projects in Bayport, MN

The license requirements for water softener installation depend on your location. Some municipalities require that the installer hold a plumbing license, some require a permit and an inspection, but no license for the installer, and some require a permit and a license for the installer. Regardless of the local laws in your area, it’s always a good idea to hire a licensed plumber or installer. These pros will install your system properly and have the experience to size the system appropriately. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to check your installer’s license status.

Water softeners are worth the money if you live in an area with hard water. Hard water is safe to drink, but it poses serious threats to your plumbing system. The minerals in hard water will gradually build up on the inside walls of your pipes, reducing water flow to your fixtures. The minerals can also gradually corrode your plumbing system, reduce its lifespan, and increase the risk of leaks. Hard water also makes soap and detergent less effective. Water softener systems can solve all these issues, making them a great investment.

It’s possible to install a water softener yourself, but we don’t recommend it. Water softeners require working with copper pipes and electrical wiring, neither are suitable tasks for most DIYers. Plus, working with water and electricity together is dangerous and could pose a risk to your safety. Water softeners also need to be calibrated so that they don’t make your water too soft, as soft water poses just as many risks as hard water. Overall, it’s well worth hiring a local water softener installer to place your water softener system.

The cost to install a water softener system is $1,500 on average, ranging between $200 and $6,000. The labor for water softener work typically costs between $150 and $1,000, so you can add that to your equipment costs to get an accurate total. Your price will depend on many factors, including the following:

  • System capacity 

  • Home size

  • Water hardness levels

  • Type of water softener

  • Presence of electricity in the installation area

  • Local permit costs

Your water softener size is based on your total household water consumption. In most cases, you can assume the average household member will use around 75 gallons per day. Multiply that by the number of people in your home, then multiply by 10 (for the typical grains per gallon). You’ll get a number in grains that should help roughly size your water softener. However, it’s best to hire a professional to install your system and use more exact numbers, like your exact average water consumption per day and starting water hardness.
