"I am pleased with the water softener. The owner explained the system and answered my questions. A miscommunication in scheduling installation was quickly changed to accommodate my schedule. Installation was speedy and they explained the best way to position the softener. A few questions that I had after installation were answered quickly. Thanks!"

"We have had several services completed by NE Plumbing. They have serviced our swamp cooler in the spring & fall for 2 years, & done a great job. Last December, our water heater was leaking, and Pepe and his team stayed until 9pm that night to complete the work. Based on their suggestion, we replaced it with a tankless water heater & we are extremely happy with it. It has reduced our power consumption while giving us hot water efficiently when we need it. Pepe has gone above & beyond what was expected to give us excellent customer service. Prompt, knowledgable, thorough, & friendly. Highly recommend!"

"Title: Exceptional, trustworthy plumbing — highly recommended Galactic Mechanical & Plumbing exceeded every expectation. After a frustrating runaround with other companies, Jordan drove up from Albuquerque to Santa Fe, waived the trip charge, and quickly diagnosed that I only needed a faucet fixture (not a full sink). He went to Home Depot, installed the new fixture, fixed a few other small issues, and left everything working — all billed fairly for one hour of labor. Jordan was professional, efficient, and honest; Megan in the office was courteous and helpful. As a longtime local with two homes, I’m already planning to use Galactic as my go-to plumber. Highly recommend them for reliable, respectful, and skilled service. Thank you, Jordan."

"They had great communication with me and were very polite. They even gave me the cell number of the estimator to work out the details of a modified cost estimate. They were extremely fast and efficient in getting out to the Futura House and getting me a cost estimate as well as replacing the hot water heater. If you want work done fast and complete, this is the company you want to use."

"The salesman Steve that came out to give me a quote was very professional and very thorough. He spent a lot of time with me explaining their system and telling me about the company. They have excellent products and it seems like they offer great customer service. Before I could put the phone down after putting the Home Advisor request in, he was calling me, and he was right on time for the appointment. He spent a lot of time answering my questions and explaining the value of his companies systems. I would absolutely recommend Steve and Creative Resources, LLC for your water softening and water conditioning needs."

"Father and son team squeezed me into their schedule so we wouldn't have to go without hot water all for a great price. ( December promo).They were friendly and knowledgeable and explained how to operate the water heater if it ever went out. They were done in two hours and cleaned up after themselves. They also gave us a multi tool as a thank you for our business. Would hire againbif needed."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

If your ‘do isn’t doing what you want it to do despite using good hair care products, hard water might be to blame. Since hard water can’t rinse soap off as well as soft water can, your hair might grow limp because of the shampoo and conditioner residue that’s left behind. If you color your hair, you might see it fade more quickly or even turn a different shade as the dye reacts with the minerals in the water. You might also experience an itchy scalp, thanks to the dryness that comes from bathing in the hard water.

Installing a water softener could help reduce calcium buildup in your pool if your pool has high calcium hardness as a result of hard drinking water in your home. Pool softeners work by exchanging calcium and magnesium for sodium, so if you use softened water to top off your pool, it may help keep calcium hardness from rising over time. However, it won’t lower the calcium hardness of the water already in your pool and isn’t a practical way to control pool calcium levels. The average water softener installation cost is between $200 and $6,000.

The main difference between a water softener and a water filter is what they remove from the water. A water softener is specifically designed to remove hard minerals, while a filter removes a wider range of contaminants above a certain size, such as bacteria and other impurities. If your primary goal is to remove minerals, a softener is the best choice. If you want to remove various contaminants for safety or taste, a filter is more suitable. Filters are also typically less expensive to install. Depending on your water supply's specific issues, you may need to install both systems for comprehensive treatment.

It’s unlikely that hard water on its own could cause substantial hair loss or damage, though it’s true that bathing in hard water can cause your scalp to feel itchy or flaky and might dull your hair’s natural shine. Using high-quality shampoo and conditioner or buying a whole-home water softener can decrease these issues.

If your water softener repair is fairly straightforward, like a simple filter replacement, then you can probably do it yourself with little risk. However, anything beyond a simple fix should be addressed by someone with extensive plumbing expertise to avoid costly water softener problems, like leaks. 

That said, even simple problems can be complicated to diagnose, particularly if your water softener is attached to a whole-house treatment system. So, unless you feel absolutely certain that the problem is an easy fix that you can take on yourself, it's probably best to hire a plumber to diagnose and fix the problem.
