"We purchased a Hague Maxpack water softener and reverse osmosis system from North Carolina Water Consultants and couldn’t be more pleased with our choice. The technicians arrived on time, were professional and accommodative of our install location preferences and answered all of our question thoroughly. We highly recommend this company if you are looking for quality whole house water filtration/softener company. You will not be disappointed."

"About a year ago or more, Jim determined we needed a extra water softer tank to keep the red out of our well water. We couldn't be happier with the job he continues to do for us. Everyone who works with him is professional, clean, efficient, and very personable. Can't say anything but praises for him.

"My basement has had water seeping in since I bought it 13 years ago. Danny and the Parks crew reinforced one wall of my basement that was buckling from hydrostatic pressure and installed their drain system outside of my home. While everything was torn up, I had them replace my driveway and front porch and walkway. They were great! We had a few delays due to the rain, but Danny kept me well-informed on the progress. Jody actually did a lot of the masonry work. He does great work! Although my yard did look like a war zone for a couple of weeks, they cleaned everything up and sowed new grass for us. My driveway turned out amazing. It’s the envy of my neighborhood and feels like butter when I drive across it. I have had zero water in my basement since they installed my system in May of this year. I would highly recommend Danny and Parks waterproofing for any masonry, concrete or waterproofing you handed done. Parks is a one-stop-shop! They handle it all."

Water Softeners FAQs, answered by experts

Some shower water softeners are effective, but this isn’t always the case. Most shower filters only filter out chlorine, not hard minerals like calcium. Other shower filters can't handle the demand in homes with very hard water. It's also important to change the filters on your shower filters. Failure to regularly swap out old filters will make the filter ineffective over time. 

Whether you need a permit or license for a water softener installation depends on your location, as requirements vary significantly. Some municipalities require the installer to hold a plumbing license, some mandate a permit and an inspection, and others require both. In some areas, no special permit or license is needed at all.

To determine the rules in your area, you can contact your local building department or consult a local water softener installer or plumber. Often, only certified professionals are authorized to pull the necessary permits, and they will typically handle the entire permitting process for you. Regardless of local laws, it is always recommended to hire a licensed professional to ensure the system is sized and installed correctly. You can use Angi’s state licensing tool to check an installer’s license status.

A good hardness level for drinking water can vary based on personal preferences, but an ideal level is 3.5 to 7 GPG. This means your water isn’t soft or hard. However, some people prefer the “fresh” taste from the minerals in hard water, while others like the smoother, “slippery” texture of soft water.

Because it’s been through the water cycle, evaporating and becoming slightly acidic thanks to dissolved carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, rainwater tends to be naturally soft compared to groundwater, which has just been in contact with limestone. However, the natural hardness level of water always depends on where you are and other factors.

You should not use a water conditioner with a water softener because a water conditioner changes the chemistry of the water and causes the ion exchange in a softener to be ineffective. Choose a water softener if you have hard water or well water, and use a water conditioner if you need to remove certain contaminants.
