"The installation went fantastic! Joe the owner was there to help with the install along with his expert Tech Ken. Joe is very responsive, knowledgeable & helpful, just a really nice person to deal with. He even vacuumed behind our washer & dryer to remove dust & lint as they were running the hose into the drain.(he volunteered for this) Ken is a fantastic Tech, very knowledgeable about installs and works efficiently & quickly. We could not be happier with the install. The results of the quality of our water is terrific, no more dry skin, chipped nails and white spots on everything. We can even drink water from our faucets and no more gallon jugs of water to lug home from shopping. We give Advanced the Highest recommendation possible if you are looking for a new house water softening system, you could not be in better hands!"

Water Softeners FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, a water softener can remove scale deposits. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, after you add a water softener to your home, “gradually the softer water will dissolve limescale scale deposits and remove the problem entirely.” Installing a water softener—or water descaler—will also help prevent new scale deposits from forming.

You can install a water softener system by turning off the water supply, draining the water, and then connecting your device to the waterline. Next, you’ll fill your tank with the recommended amount of salt or brine (whichever your unit calls for; be sure to read the instructions). Turn the water supply on and check for leaks. You can opt to let your water run for a few minutes, then test it using strips. 

The process of inspecting your water softener system is similar.

While it depends on how complicated the unit and installation is, it takes two to four hours to install a water softener unit, on average. It might take longer if pipes need to be replaced. You should make sure the installation area is clear of any objects that might get in the way before you begin.

The chemicals in a water softener can wear down the anode rod in the heater and shorten its life span. However, for most people, the benefits of the softener outweigh this potential drawback.

Have a plumber inspect the anode rod annually for damage, as replacing the anode rod is far less expensive than replacing the entire water heater.

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.
