"The water at the beach has a terrible rotten egg smell, after replacing the hot water heater, adding a softener and a carbon filter I still have the smell. There may be nothing that can be done, but yuck! Culligan was very nice and affordable, I just didn't get my problem solved."

"Spoke with Chris about the issues we were having with our water. He provided an abundance of information and options. He scheduled for the install the very next day and we couldn’t be happier with the work and professionalism of Paul, the technician assigned to the job. We would recommend them to anyone when asked. Thanks again Chris."

"This is the most knowledgeable service provider of water purification that I have ever used. He explained everything - lots I did not know and gave me tips on how I could use it more efficiently. I would love to replace my system with a new one, but cost right now does not fit my budget. But when I have the wherewithal to have a new one installed, Purologix will be the company I will hire! Very impressed with professionalism and knowledge and of course know-how.

Purologix MaxPack Whole House Point of Entry 5-Stage Conditioner and Point of Use High Efficiency Reverse Osmosis Purification System.
Patented tank design allows us to create a 5-stage process inside a single, extra wide tank resulting in a very compact and complete treatment process. There is no better City Water Treatment available for a typical homeowner.
No water system is handsome or a work of art, and most look like scuba gear or gas cylinders. However, our WaterMax is different, and the Signature Series styling is as aesthetic as it gets in the Water Treatment Industry. More importantly is what is inside that counts, and our 5-stage process is unmatched without installing multiple filters, and fiberglass tanks in series. More connections, more upkeep, more salt, more water, more filters, more money. Talk to us about our efficiency.

"I would not recommend using Purlogix for annual service. I had to call them every time when the salt in the water softener ran out. After multiple conversations, they still don t have me in the system after one year of trying. I give up"

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

The average cost to install a water softener, including the system and labor, is approximately $1,500. However, the total price can range widely from $600 to $6,000. For some complete systems, the cost may be between $800 and $2,500. Labor for the installation typically costs between $150 and $1,000.

The final price is influenced by several factors, including:

  • System type, capacity, and complexity

  • Home size and household water demands

  • Water hardness levels

  • Accessibility of the installation site and the extent of plumbing work required

  • Whether new electrical work is needed

  • The professional hired and any local permit costs

No, a water descaler won't descale pipes. The charged water running through the pipes may very slowly dissolve mineral deposits and hold them inside the water, but it's a very gradual process. If your pipes do need descaling, it's much better to get a local plumber to descale your pipes.

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.

A water softener is a worthwhile investment if you live in an area with hard water. While hard water is safe to drink, it contains minerals like calcium and magnesium that can cause significant problems over time. These minerals build up inside pipes, reducing water flow and eventually corroding the plumbing system, which can lead to leaks and a shortened lifespan. Hard water also damages fixtures and appliances, potentially resulting in costly repairs. Additionally, it makes soaps and detergents less effective, meaning you'll use more product to get things clean. By installing a water softener, you can prevent these issues. The initial investment is often recouped through long-term savings, including lower energy bills, reduced appliance and plumbing maintenance, and spending less on soap and cleaning supplies. Other benefits include cleaner linens, dishes, and clothing, as well as softer water that is gentler on your skin and hair. In some areas, a water softener can also increase your home's value, making it a valuable long-term investment.

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.
