Proudly purifying water since 1954, we transform home and commercial water with our InstaSoft treatment system. Our expert technicians analyze your water quality and recommend the perfect solution, from water softeners and filters to reverse osmosis and UV disinfection systems. Enjoy cleaner, healthier water free of unwanted minerals, chemicals, and bacteria.

"Second time i had an issue with then over charging me. I had setup an appointment for salt delivery and to check the water filtration system. In between the scheduling and the appointment the water filter issue resolved itself, they insist on still charging me $150 for the service visit ex the salt delivery. Keep in mind one technician came out to put salt in the water softener and “check” water system. I never got a bill or adked to sign anything, they just charged the card on file. Random charge just shows up on my credit card. Borderline fraudulent activity here. Would be very careful using them if you are a new customer. Further there filters are custom so you need them to change the filter every 4-6 months which you can only use them and they charge near $500 for this. Be really careful with this company! Not to mention they don't tell you, your water pressure goes down by 40% when u install this stuff!"

"The plumber arrived on time and took off his shoes upon entering the house. Wow! Before removing the old toilet, water was removed from the tank and bowl, and then placed the toilet in large plastic bag. He fixed the old pvc opening and inserted a metal bracket for the new flange. He carefully assembled and installed the new toilet. You can tell the plumber takes pride in his work. He left the bathroom very clean."

I have one partner, you always get us. There is no mystery who will show up at your door. I will be neat, clean, respectful, and honest above all. I have over 20 years in the plumbing, heating, and water conditioning industry, both commercial and residential.

"Plumber extraordinaire! Installed whole house water purification, tankless water heater, water softener and did wizardry on my master bath to increase hot water temp. I’m wildly known by those whom I hire to be extraordinary picky. I expect the best. Most plumbing looks drab, but not Mikes work! He is a virtuoso of plumbers, and even better he makes you feel like boutique plumber at low prices! Mike is for those who may not always know what they want, but what ever it is, it’s got to be perfect. I am so happy to have found him, he does the most beautiful and genuinely amazing plumbing fixes and hacks. He fixed a not-hot-enough water issue with my tub, using a genius hack to increase my hot water without changing equipment! Mike thinks outside of the box when it comes to complicated plumbing issues in ways that will blow your mind! Everyone else you call will seem like your typical standard subpar plumber compared to his inventiveness. It is his business after all and he has a passion the way his work beautifies your home. His whole crew are brilliant and honest!"

201-286-9016! We service Northern New Jersey. We are problem solvers on all facets of plumbing and work with small renovations to new homes or light commercial new construction projects. We also do sewer and drain cleaning and replacement. We work on single family homes, condos, townhouses, apartment buildings, high rise buildings, commercial buildings, etc.

"We hired Angler to replace the valves controlling the water to outside our house and were pleased with the work, the price, and the staff. We rely on this water for the garden so it was important to get this fixed fast. Angler showed up the next day exactly when they said they would and quickly replaced the valves. They clearly explained what they did. They didn't try to sell us unnecessary work but did make suggestions for a few other things we might want to consider getting fixed in the future. The worker was very carefully in terms of COVID-19 and always had his mask on when entering our home. Definitely would recommend them."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Soft water is better for your hair. The minerals in hard water can impact hair in a number of ways. It can cause the hair to dry out and become brittle, and it can require you to use more shampoo to get a good lather. The hard water may leave a film on the hair and scalp from mineral buildup, which may also cause some irritation.

Hard water isn’t necessarily bad for you. In some ways, it’s good for you. If you’re deficient in magnesium or calcium, hard water can give you a mineral boost that you wouldn’t get with soft water. However, this is where the benefits of hard water pretty much stop. Hard water can cause many minor inconveniences and lead to costly, premature replacements of your water-using appliances.

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.

Water softener versus water filter: which one should you choose? If you want to remove minerals, opt for a softener. If you want to remove a wide range of contaminants, go for a filter. Or, you can install both.

Most of the U.S. has hard water, especially across portions of the West and Midwest. The areas with the hardest water include parts of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, Wyoming, Illinois, North and South Dakota, Ohio, and New York. You’ll find soft water in parts of New England, the Southeast, the Pacific Northwest, and Hawaii.
