"I got six estimates for replacement of my 12-year-old water heater. I went with Advanced Water Systems of Coastal NC-VA. I’m extremely happy with the purchase and installation of my new water heater. Advanced Water Systems of Coastal NC-VA impressed me at every step of the process. They provided a fair estimate, professional communication and installation, answered all my questions during the process, and cleaned up after they were done. The installation team installed a new gas shut off valve and an expansion tank, in addition to the water heater, and didn’t add on extra charges like some companies. They also insulated the pipes. I’m thankful that everything is now up to code. The plumber explained the purpose of the expansion tank, other companies didn’t even mention one. Both of the people doing the install were highly knowledgeable and efficient. I highly recommend Advanced Water Systems of Coastal NC-VA."

"If you are ready to let go of plenty of money for work, then this is the place to call! The man that came out was courteous and polite and the work was good. Technician came out on a Saturday for weekend call and then had to return for a few hours on the following Monday. Total between 7-8 hours (included a trip to Raleigh from Creedmoor and back for a pump). We were charged an extra service charge on top of labor for the trip to get pump. The labor charge averaged out to a little more than $208 per hour. Company was called and bill was discussed. I was told that they do not charge by hour anymore, that they charge by the job and what work is done. (Replaced the pump, line and wire in well and tank). I was told that I would get a call back to discuss the bill, was called back the first time by the time that was stated, but asked could he call later that day when he had more time. There was never a call back. I know things are more expensive these days, but not this much!"

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Water softener life spans range from 10 to 25 years, with most lasting around 15 years on average. After the 10-year mark, you may see your softener’s performance diminish as it progresses in age. Proper water softener maintenance can impact how long your water softener lasts. Likewise, a home with very hard water or a high demand will put more demand on your softener, which in turn shortens its life span.

Just as hard water can wreak havoc on your skin by drying it out, it’s also not great for your hair. That’s because hard water won’t rinse out shampoo and conditioner as effectively as soft water can. All that product buildup isn’t good news for your hair, which can look dull and limp over time with hard water.

Water softeners have many benefits. The most important one is converting previously hard water—water with too many minerals—to more usable, easier water. When we say easier water, we mean water that’s easier to digest, less harsh on skin and clothes, and builds up less in the water system. Softer water may lead to lower energy costs and will extend the lifespan of all appliances that use water.

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.

Water softener installation costs vary, but on average, homeowners will pay between $200 and $6,000. Due to their location, complexity, type of unit, and water demands, water softeners have a very wide price range. That being said, the average installation cost for most homes is around $1,500.
