"Needed a water valve replaced ASAP Miguel from Aca plumbing was here to save the day. He is smart, knows what he is doing and got the job done fast and correctly. Im very pleased with the work done today !"
"Mario and his assistant did a wonderful and fully clean and complete job upgrading my water heater to a larger size. He was fast with excellent communication and kept to his agreement to cart away the old one and install the size, brand and Model I wanted. I now enjoy a increase in hot water performance and have a new plumber in him for future repairs and plumbing related projects. I would highly recommend him and his professionalism to my friends and family. Joe"
"Iâ ve hired Daniel to do a few plumbing projects at my townhouse. He always does a great job and leaves the space heâ s working in cleaner than he found it. Highly recommend!"
"They were very prompt, efficient and pleasant. Did a wonderful job replacing my hot water tank. They cleaned up nicely and took the old tank with them. The price is very reasonable."
"Kevin was great! The rest of the company not so much. Kevin diagnosed the problem immediately as the thermostat, had a replacement in the truck, and completed the installation of the new unit quickly. He showed me how to program the updated version, and everything seemed to be fine - until the next morning. Turned out the replacement was defective. When I called, I was told that they might not be able to get back to me that day, but Kevin interrupted his schedule to come back and put in a new (and working) unit at no charge."
"Had a tankless hot water heater installed. Not the cheapest, but fast and thorough. I priced a few vendors, and ended up going with these guys because they asked more good questions and were better at communicating the various options. Recommended."
"Andy arrived early and worked conscientiously the entire time he was at my property. He was friendly, wore a mask, and had me check the work was adequate before leaving."
"Antonio, at Greenovative, was great. I really enjoyed his professionalism. He and his crew found creative ways to decrease the price of the project. We are happy we gave Greenovative this project. Honestly, we will use them again."

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.
Soft water is better for your hair. The minerals in hard water can dry out hair, make it brittle, and leave a film on the hair and scalp that may cause irritation. Hard water also doesn't rinse out shampoo and conditioner effectively, which can lead to product buildup that makes hair look dull and limp. You may also find you need to use more shampoo to get a good lather in hard water.
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.
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.
No, hard water isn’t dangerous. The added calcium in hard water can contribute to good bone health. However, it can also cause dry skin and hair. If you have dry skin or hair, consider using a water-softening system to help minimize the minerals in your water. Plus, these systems can also add some sodium to your diet.
