Patriot Heating & A/C & Plumbing has been serving the KC Metro area for 10 years strong! Our company is based on the belief that our customers' needs are of the utmost importance. We would welcome the opportunity to earn your trust and deliver you the best service in the industry.

"Beware - Patriot will not stand behind any problems they cause with existing equipment, no matter how long they have serviced it. Ten years ago I found Patriot on an app like this and have been happy with them UNTIL 4 days ago. Four days ago they came out to perform seasonal maintenance. The tech made a 'rookie' mistake (per owner Jake) which ended up making it necessary to replace a circuit board. I offered to pay half the cost. Jake refused saying he wouldn't accept the offer. WHAT? I'm having to repair my HVAC - which was working efficiently and no issues - at my expense because their 'rookie' tech broke something? This is not the way to do business. Please cancel my service contract and refund my money. Interesting question at the end of this review: 'would you hire them again?' H*** NO"

For 50 years, our goal has been to ensure the complete satisfaction of every customer by using a personal approach while providing efficient, courteous and professional service at competitive rates. Serving the Greater Kansas City area, every job, big or small is important to us as we focus on customer care and reliability. Midwest Heating Cooling & Plumbing is a family owned and operated business, taking pride in our reputation of quality and dependability from repeat business, client recommendations and of course new clients. It has been our pleasure to provide heating and cooling services to both home and business owners for fifty years. Free estimates on replacements. Nate certified service technicians. Additional ph#: 816-943-8400.

"Midwest replaced my 23 year old Lennox home HVAC system with a new, top of the line, high efficiency, Lennox system for a reasonable price. I was impressed with the fast, free, custom tailored, detailed estimate, the ability to have the new system installed within just a couple of days, and the speed and quality of the installation team. The estimator (Tom) arrived just two hours after I called, was very personable, very knowledgeable, and helped me select the right components at the right price (with guidance about unit costs, efficiencies, energy savings, rebates and tax credits) to match my criteria. I liked that he had many years of experience, and he went above and beyond to make sure my new system (which replaced a broken system) was installed before an upcoming cold blast. I received two other estimates, and they did not go near as well, with a generic good, better, and best high priced estimate (without input from me) from one company, and another company selling only units from lower quality manufacturers. The installation team started at 8:30 am, and went right to work. They also had many years of experience, and were ready for my walk-thru at 3:00 pm. They did a great job in a short time. Nice! Overall, I can highly recommend Midwest for home HVAC system installations."

"I have had a home warranty plan with ABMay for several years and always get great service. Today Joshua White did my annual plumbing inspection and when I mentioned I'd be getting new toilets soon he let me know of the wonderful credit I had and the next thing I knew...he installed my 2 new toilets in record time today at a great price. He was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and answered all my questions( tolerated my puppy)as well as gave me information. Once again I'm very satisfied with this company and their technicians."

"We had owned a Kinetico water softner before and knew that was what we wanted in this house. JFDenney is an authorized dealer. Everything from the initial contact with Jill to the install with Jared went very smoothly and quickly. Very professional, courteous, clean and efficient. We had a very tight space to fit and Jared set things up so we can maneuver the salt tank to get to other systems. More than pleased!"

"Furnace quit working on the super cold morning- negative wind temps, called, they came in couple hours, water in the intake pipe outside, could not prove switch, condemned the Board, ordered Board, gave estimate of HVAC replacement - outrageous prices, opted to fix old furnace, came back following week with new Board, installed, furnace still won't come on, cut intake pipe in half to obtain air flow and left it like that, was told to leave door open so it will not starve for air, charged me over $1100.00. Told my disabled husband to get the clog out of the pipe himself."

"I contacted Nick regarding my need to have drywall installed for one entire floor of a house. He had his drywall guy, Jeramy, come give me a estimate and talk me through the job. Jeramy was very professional and really easy to work with. Once they started the job, Jeramy communicated clearly and often about the status of the job, schedules for progress, and arrival times at the house. He and his guys were very neat and careful and minimized mess and impact while they worked even when it necessitated carrying sheet rock through the house to the 3rd story. Throughout the process Nick continued to communicate as needed to ensure everything went smoothly. The job took a little longer than expected due to the quirks of it being a very old house and lots of strange angles and corners, but they communicated and coordinated well to make it happen. A couple extra days was no problem and well worth it for the amazing attention to detail and high quality work that they did. I highly recommend them and would definitely hire them again."

FAQs for water softener service projects in Riverside, MO

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.
