"They were great. They were very prompt when I called them, they responded within a very timely manner, efficient, and professional. I have a little concern about the leak around the floor where the water heater had leaked and I told them about that and he got a plywood to put down over the floor for the water heater to rest on so that it won't go directly on the floor and it would give the floor time to dry and air out and he came out of his way to do it."

"Installation was excellent. Not only did he wire it up, but with his familiarity with WiFi control, he completed that effort also. System in house is over 15 years old and we are exploring updating system for better performance and lowering electric bill. Also looking at better gas water heater."

"They were very professional and thorough. Not only did they make a thorough analysis of potential causes from the water leak under the master bathroom, but also discovered a leak under the guest bathroom as well. They provided excellent next steps for how to approach both problems since structural damage was involved. Price was very competitive. Would definitely use again.

"I've been a Realtor for 18 years. I've never had a better experience with an HVAC company than I've had with Alpine.  We decided on Friday afternoon that I needed a new furnace and duct work, and the job was done by Tuesday afternoon, the day before Christmas!!   My experience with everyone, from the person who diagnosed my problem, to the person who discussed financing with me, to the technicians who installed the system, could not have been any better.
The technicians showed up on time, were extremely knowledgeable and professional, explained everything they did for me, and left the site cleaner than how they found it.  They were very impressive, had great attitudes, and made me feel very confident that the new system will serve me well, and will save me a lot of money in energy bills.
As a Realtor, I take my testimonials very seriously.  I can honestly say that my dealings with Alpine from start to finish were absolutely perfect, and I wouldn't change anything about how it went. I've emailed a testimonial to Alpine, and told them they can have anyone who is thinking of using them, to call me for a reference.  I will refer all of my clients and colleagues to Alpine.  I could not be happier with the job they did for me.

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Most experts agree there’s not much difference health-wise between hard water versus soft water. That said, hard water is more likely to cause skin dryness and issues that go along with it, like an itchy or flaky scalp. Hard water can also decrease the life span of your household appliances and make it more difficult for soap to do its job.

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.

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.

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.

The primary difference between a water softener and a water filter lies in what they remove from the water. A water softener is designed to remove hard minerals like calcium and magnesium. In contrast, a water filter has a broader effect, removing various contaminants above a certain size, which can include bacteria and other impurities.

To decide which you need, consider your goal. If you want to eliminate hard minerals, choose a softener. If you want to remove a wide range of contaminants, a filter is the better option. Filters are also generally less expensive to install. Depending on your water supply, you may need to install both for comprehensive treatment.
