"They performed appropriate tests on my softened and filtered water before doing any work. No major repairs were needed, only targeted maintenance was needed. They were thed only water filtration rane changes from this point forward. Finding these folks is loke hitting a home run.company that offered a service to deliver salt to us, carry the salt to our basement, then install the heavy salt into our salt bin. And their price for doing that is more than fair. We will be having them provide routine maintenance & filter/membrane replacement."

"Went well. Had to run out a couple times to find the right size items for a very old house (built in 1920s). This two foot of old pipe was responsible for all our water pressure problems. Inside the old galvanized pipe was found almost an inch thick of rust/buildup."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Hard water doesn’t hurt, but it might feel more abrasive, especially if you have sensitive skin. It’s also about how your skin feels after bathing. You might feel as though you have a sticky film over your body because you do—it’s all that soapy residue left behind because the hard water can’t rinse it off completely.

You should not use a water conditioner with a water softener because a water conditioner changes the chemistry of the water and causes the ion exchange in a softener to be ineffective. Choose a water softener if you have hard water or well water, and use a water conditioner if you need to remove certain contaminants.

The primary difference between a water softener and a water filter lies in what they remove from the water. A water softener is designed to remove hard minerals like calcium and magnesium. In contrast, a water filter has a broader effect, removing various contaminants above a certain size, which can include bacteria and other impurities.

To decide which you need, consider your goal. If you want to eliminate hard minerals, choose a softener. If you want to remove a wide range of contaminants, a filter is the better option. Filters are also generally less expensive to install. Depending on your water supply, you may need to install both for comprehensive treatment.

Selecting the right system depends on testing your water to understand the contaminants present and considering your household's water usage and specific needs, such as removing specific contaminants.

Because it’s been through the water cycle, evaporating and becoming slightly acidic thanks to dissolved carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, rainwater tends to be naturally soft compared to groundwater, which has just been in contact with limestone. However, the natural hardness level of water always depends on where you are and other factors.
