With over 15 years of experience, Pete’s Plumbing specializes in commercial & residential plumbing services including bathroom remodels and basement finishes. Now servicing Big Lake, Zimmerman, & Princeton areas as well as the greater Twin Cities metro. Call or text Jeremy at 763.234.8187, today!

"I have renovated over twenty properties in several Minnesota counties. I work with several plumbers and most of them are honest and ethical. I believe at one time Jeremy was honest but is now using his companies reputation to over charge customers. I called Jeremy because I needed two copper pipes installed for a water softener. I explained that I would install and setup the water softener. Over the phone he quoted that his charges would be under $200.00 to install two copper pipes. Jeremy arrived at our property and worked from 3:00 pm to 3:20 pm. I then engaged Jeremy in conversation and he required $225.00 for twenty minutes of work. I challenged his extreme charges and he continued to claim that he is the cheapest plumber in the area. He explained that other plumbers complain that Jeremy is too cheap and hurt their pricing. This places Jeremy's hourly rate at over 600.00 an hour. Jeremy then handed me a time and material invoice for $225.00 and demanded full payment. I paid Jeremy in full but this is a warning that this company is defrauding and cheating innocent people in Anoka county. I intend to file a complaint with the department of commerce and other agencies to require that plumbers be regulated by government agencies. Plumbers such as Jeremy are overcharging and are worse than the most expensive attorney."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

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.

The main difference between water softeners and water filters is that softeners remove hard minerals from the water, while filters have more of a blanket effect, removing all contaminants above a certain size. Filters are also much less expensive to install and protect against bacteria and other impurities. Depending on your water supply, you may need both.

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.

Just as hard water can wreak havoc on your skin by drying it out, it’s also not great for your hair. That’s because hard water won’t rinse out shampoo and conditioner as effectively as soft water can. All that product buildup isn’t good news for your hair, which can look dull and limp over time with hard water.

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. 

The process of inspecting your water softener system is similar.
