"We had a whole house water system installed in October'25. The installers were very professional and the quality was top notch. Having a well with hard water, this system was a must, and we couldn't be happier with the results."

"The sales rep took several water testsâ ¦ The sales rep took several water tests and showed me the results. She told me that I needed more than just a water softener. I also needed a system to address the rust and iron in my well water. I did not want to spend a fortune but the sales lady was pretty convincing. The price was good and the workmanship was excellent. My water is clean again ! Now I can tackle the original problem. My toilet has bad rust stains. I will either get it clean, or replace it. I could not do this until the water was fixed."

"Bennie Bittle was in the area, when he stopped by my home. His source for electric water heaters was near by, as well. He, and his assistant son, were professional and good communicators. They took out my old electric water heater, and replaced it with a new one, on the very morning that I listed with Angi."

Small jobs welcome

"After interviewing several companies for the job, we were referred to John Schaus owner of A & E Water Conditioning. We scheduled a meeting to find out about his products and service. He answered all of our questions and we were pleased by the price of the system and installation. We went ahead and scheduled the installation. John and his plumber arrived on time and his system was installed within two hours. It is Iocated in a convenient spot in our garage and we were very pleased how everything went. The system is very low maintenance and works beautifully."

"Home advisor contacted the company seconds after I clicked on the search. The company owner called me with in 10 min. He gave me a quote after I described what I wanted. His plumber came to Rocky Mount, NC from the Raleigh area the next day and installed the system. The co owner came out later that afternoon from Raleigh and inspected the job. He did a water test and found the system completely removes all iron from our well water. He left a water test kit for me to preform in 60 days. It has a self addressed postage paid container to mail back.The price was fair. The job was professionally done. The Owner personally made sure the job was done correctly. Yes I would recommend this company highly to all my friends. Chick Nezas Retired Police Sgt."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes. To get soft water, you can install a water softening system, which will replace the calcium and magnesium ions in the water with sodium or potassium ions. Water softeners cost anywhere from $200 to $6,000, depending on the size and complexity of the system. You can either install a water softener for the whole house or just at your shower heads. If you’re sensitive to sodium or potassium, you can install a salt-free water conditioner.

No, hard water isn’t dangerous. The added calcium in hard water can contribute to good bone health. However, it can also cause dry skin and hair. If you have dry skin or hair, consider using a water-softening system to help minimize the minerals in your water. Plus, these systems can also add some sodium to your diet. 

It depends on the type of surface. For instance, if you’re trying to get rid of hard water deposits on glass, you can spray vinegar onto the surface and wipe it off with a soft cloth or non-abrasive sponge. However, if the deposits are on granite or natural stone, it’s better to use baking soda and water rather than vinegar or other acidic cleaners.

No. You should never directly drain a water softener into a sewer cleanout. This practice is illegal in many areas because it could allow raw sewage to get into your drinking water and make you seriously ill. Many places have codes requiring a specific seal, pipe, and a large air gap between a water softener and a sewage cleanout. Check out Florida's Plumbing Building Code as an example of what these restrictions might look like.
