"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!"
"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."

Yes, you can have both a water softener and a water filter. In fact, some manufacturers sell dual water softening and filtration systems that treat hard water and provide clean drinking water. If you’re unsure about what you need or want to discuss your options, reach out to a local water softener installation company.
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.
Yes, a water softener can remove scale deposits. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, after you add a water softener to your home, “gradually the softer water will dissolve limescale scale deposits and remove the problem entirely.” Installing a water softener—or water descaler—will also help prevent new scale deposits from forming.
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.
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.
