Q: Will a water descaler descale pipes?

• <div><p>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. </p></div>

Q: What is the difference between a water softener and a water filter, and which one should I get?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: What maintenance is required after installing a water softener?

• <div><p>Routine maintenance involves recharging the resin bed with salt or potassium, cleaning components, and periodic inspection.</p></div>

Q: Is it OK to oversize a water softener?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s not a good idea to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-size-water-softener-do-i-need.htm">oversize your water softener</a>. Doing so will mean the tank doesn&rsquo;t get full, which can lead to channeling. This leads to a large portion of the resin beads not being utilized and the beads at the bottom of the tank being overused. Over time, this will reduce the efficiency of your system, not to mention that the upfront cost of an oversized softener is unnecessarily high. If you have a timed regeneration cycle rather than a demand-based one, you&rsquo;ll also spend far more on replacing salt than you need to.</p></div>

Q: Is it okay to bathe in yellow water?

• <div><p>Generally, it is safe to bathe in yellow water, as the color is often caused by iron, tannins, or rust, which won't harm your skin. Soap will still clean you effectively, though the water might leave stains. However, if the water has an unusual smell or you suspect contamination, avoid bathing and contact a plumber for an inspection. A professional can also help if you find bathing in yellow water problematic and want to determine how to get your water clear again.</p></div>

Until today, Lindi has serviced us in many ways. Our less than 3 yr old water heater ($1800) was diagnosed as “defective” and needed replacement. The quote was $984, at our expense. This doesn’t seem reasonable to us as it is half of the cost of the water heater. Seems the mfg should be covering...
