We were attempting to replace the dryer vent connection from the dryer to the connection to the crawl space due our feeling that it was clogged.  When we took off the dryer vent connection to the floor vent, there was water in it.  We became alarmed at the amount of water in the clogged lint, so we thought that we had better call a plumber.  My father-in-law had used Reed's recently and was satisfied with their services.  In contacting them on a Saturday afternoon, they offered the option to wait until Monday morning which would reduce the rate by half and they would also be able to obtain the proper connection to service the vent.  They arrived on time on Monday.  They replaced not only the dryer connection but the connection from the floor to the crawl space and to the outside discharge exit.  For all the work that they performed the charge was $106!  Not only were we thrilled at the job that they did, but to only charge $106 for almost two hours of work was exceptional.  Dryer is working better than it ever has, now that the connection has been replaced.  Highly recommend Reed's Plumbing.

"Jimmy was punctual, looked professional, was very polite. The new tap was installed in 30 min or less. He also repaired a malfunctioning wall switch that operates our garage door. The charge for both jobs was fair. I recommend him."

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.

Yes, you can have both a water softener and a water filter. In fact, some manufacturers sell dual water softening and filtration systems that treat hard water and provide clean drinking water. If you’re unsure about what you need or want to discuss your options, reach out to a local water softener installation company.

A good hardness level for drinking water can vary based on personal preferences, but an ideal level is 3.5 to 7 GPG. This means your water isn’t soft or hard. However, some people prefer the “fresh” taste from the minerals in hard water, while others like the smoother, “slippery” texture of soft water.

Yes. Hard water is what causes scale buildup, and a whole-house filter provides numerous benefits beyond water softening. Any water that enters your home will go through the filter, which cleans up all water that you will use for cooking, bathing, and drinking. A whole-house water filter also blocks harmful particles like heavy metals.

You can decide whether you need a water softener or water filter based on how your bathing or laundry experience is. If you notice issues like limescale buildup, dry skin, or stains on dishes—all telltale signs of hard water—you'd likely benefit from a water softener. However, if your main concern is over chemicals or bacteria in your tap water filter, and not just comfort, a filter is a better option.
