"Very nice and very competent skilled workers. After I described the job over the phone (a gas water heater replacement) I was quoted a price and I never thought they would stick to it. But they did stick to it! Another plumber came out to look and his quote was $1400 more! YIPES! I have already recommended them to 2 other neighbors and should the need arise, I will definitely use them again."

"Jordan and Carlos were prompt, assessed what the issue was with the lack of hot water in shower of my guest bathroom, and they gave me an estimate with options. They fixed it (connecting the value and replacing a part), and were prompt in getting this resolved in a timely manner."

"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 questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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. 

Choosing involves understanding water hardness levels, household size, desired features, and consulting professionals experienced in suitable system types.

Water purifiers and water softeners serve different purposes, so the best one will depend on your particular needs. Water purifiers remove contaminants from water (such as bacteria, viruses, and chemicals), leaving you with ultra-clean and safe water. However, water softeners remove minerals from your water so that the water doesn’t leave stains around your house or cause plumbing problems.
