"We also entertained a bid from another company that opened our eyes. Everett Was honest, candid, and realistic about what could be done. Where as the other company was vague, and used hard sell tactics. We were impressed when Everett brought in a kit to test our water, even though he had expressed concern that we may not have room in our laundry room for a water softener. Whereas the other guy made no effort to test anything, but told us a uv light unit couldn't properly do its job on our well water w/o a water softener unit. Naturally that was my first question for Everett. He said no, the light had a filter, and the hardness of the water had nothing to do with it...NO UPSELL. The other guy was very vague about pricing, but said we needed to lock it in because things are so crazy right now, it could jump thousands of dollars. That guy finally gave me an estimate between $3000-$6000. Quite alot of wiggle room there. EVERETT ON THE OTHER HAND, was open and honest about cost from our first conversation. His son, Austin showed up early, did a great job, and was very patient explaining things to us. So if your looking for a company that knows what they are doing, and relies on honest realism to sell there product, Jones Air and Water will take good care of you."

"The crew was professional, worked hard and kept us informed of progress or issues while working on our mother's home. Clean up was good. We now have peace of mind knowing that the job was done properly."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Hard water is not considered unhealthy and is safe to drink, cook with, and bathe in. It doesn't pose a risk to your physical health and can even help you get enough essential minerals like calcium in your diet. However, it can negatively affect skin and hair. Using hard water for washing can contribute to dry skin, an itchy scalp, and may worsen conditions like eczema by altering the pH balance. Additionally, some people do not like the taste of hard water.

The most accurate way to determine whether you have hard water is to purchase a water test kit from a hardware store or send a tap water sample to a lab. But there are some signs you can look out for without professional testing. For instance, if you're consistently dealing with mineral stains on your glassware, windows, and shower doors, you're likely to have hard water. Hard water can also make it harder to lather and rinse soap, so if you're struggling to work up a good lather in the shower, hard water might be the culprit.

The average cost to install a water softener, including the system and labor, is approximately $1,500. However, the total price can range widely from $600 to $6,000. For some complete systems, the cost may be between $800 and $2,500. Labor for the installation typically costs between $150 and $1,000.

The final price is influenced by several factors, including:

  • System type, capacity, and complexity

  • Home size and household water demands

  • Water hardness levels

  • Accessibility of the installation site and the extent of plumbing work required

  • Whether new electrical work is needed

  • The professional hired and any local permit costs

It’s unlikely that hard water on its own could cause substantial hair loss or damage, though it’s true that bathing in hard water can cause your scalp to feel itchy or flaky and might dull your hair’s natural shine. Using high-quality shampoo and conditioner or buying a whole-home water softener can decrease these issues.

Hard water isn’t necessarily bad for you. In some ways, it’s good for you. If you’re deficient in magnesium or calcium, hard water can give you a mineral boost that you wouldn’t get with soft water. However, this is where the benefits of hard water pretty much stop. Hard water can cause many minor inconveniences and lead to costly, premature replacements of your water-using appliances.
