"All About Plumbing replaced an old leaking Rinnai hot water heater with a new rur199i Rinnai tankless hot water heater. This model had a built-in recycle pump; however, All About Plumbing then installed a Rinnai controller, which we programmed to enable the pump to work on a programmed daily schedule. I am very pleased with their work and knowledge to make sure it was complete and working properly."

"Rich did an outstanding job. He came to my rescue when I needed 2 outdated outside faucets changed because they always leaked. He recommended 3 different types an explained each one to me in detail, this helped me make the choice that met my needs. He also noticed improper and leaking plumbing under one of my sinks and made the necessary repairs. He also discovered the humidity line from the central A/C was leaking and explained what this did for me and again this allowed me to make the decision to have him fix it and temporarily cap it off with the ability to use it in the future if I needed to. Rich is prior Navy and I am retired Coast Guard. Our experiences in the service have instilled a sense of "attention to detail", Richard is spot on with this as shown in his craftmanship. With over 25 years of experience he is definitely my "go to guy" when it comes to any type of plumbing...excellent job!!!"

"The plumbers showed up as scheduled. I even received a call from their office prior to the scheduled time to let me know that they were on the way, and to advise me of the lead plumber's name. When they arrived, the plumbers assessed the situation, advised me of pricing, and explained everything they were going to need, i.e. turning off water to the house, prior to starting work. They went above and beyond to help me find a coupon that was mentioned to me during my initial call to schedule service as well. While working, they found an issue with a valve on my water heater. The situation was explained to me and I was advised of pricing. I agreed to the valve replacement. Once I signed off on the work order, they began service immediately. I appreciated that they used booties on their shoes to avoid tracking dirt/clay into my home. They worked quickly and efficiently, while still taking the time to engage with my children. Once done, I was shown the repairs that were completed and was able to look over their work to insure it was up to my standards. I will absolutely call Four Seasons Plumbing again, without hesitation."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Experts recommend that you put two to four bags of potassium chloride in your water softener every month. This amount depends on how much is in the bag (40 pounds is most common) and what your water softener manufacturer recommends. For more specific advice, talk to a water softener pro in your area and read the manual that came with your system.

The main difference between a water softener and a water filter is what they remove from the water. A water softener is specifically designed to remove hard minerals, while a filter removes a wider range of contaminants above a certain size, such as bacteria and other impurities. If your primary goal is to remove minerals, a softener is the best choice. If you want to remove various contaminants for safety or taste, a filter is more suitable. Filters are also typically less expensive to install. Depending on your water supply's specific issues, you may need to install both systems for comprehensive treatment.

Routine maintenance involves recharging the resin bed with salt or potassium, cleaning components, and periodic inspection.

You can use a commercial water repellent treatment for glass on your shower doors to prevent water spots. Take care to only apply the product to glass. Letting air circulate also helps prevent water spots, as water is less likely to remain on the glass for a long time with good air circulation. Run your vent fan, open a window, and leave the shower door open for about half an hour after using the shower.

Yes, a water softener can remove scale deposits. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, after you add a water softener to your home, “gradually the softer water will dissolve limescale scale deposits and remove the problem entirely.” Installing a water softener—or water descaler—will also help prevent new scale deposits from forming.
