"They did a great job! I knew I wanted a water filter for the house and drinking water since we were moving out of NYC and their awesome water to an area with a crappier water source. And I was about to have a baby! Anyway I did endless amounts of research, including multiple water companies that do their own install, and direct to consumer ones where I could just buy a system and install it myself, and after thinking about it for months (literally), I finally went with QWG. We worked with Maria (who is absolutely awesome) and the cost was reasonable. Between what they offered and how pleasant the experience was, I’m glad I picked them. We have a whole house filter and an RO system that they were able to hang in the basement so it doesn’t take up space under the sink, and it’s hooked up to both a faucet at the sink and the fridge as well. Exactly as I wanted. It’s been a couple months, and the water’s great so far. The support is great too, which is big. Can’t speak for long-term usage yet, but so far we’re very happy! Thank you!"

"My experience with Comfort Basement was excellent from start to finish.  I purchased a special offer through Angie's List so the price was excellent and a very good quality pump was installed.  Jesse was courteous, professional, prompt and explained the pump.  He offered some other possible ideas for our water issues, but did not push us to do more than the original offer.  I would definitely recommend Comfort Basement. We are relieved to have a system which will turn on automatically if our electricity goes off again.

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

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.

You can decide whether you need a water softener or water filter based on how your bathing or laundry experience is. If you notice issues like limescale buildup, dry skin, or stains on dishes—all telltale signs of hard water—you'd likely benefit from a water softener. However, if your main concern is over chemicals or bacteria in your tap water filter, and not just comfort, a filter is a better option.

It’s not a good idea to oversize your water softener. Doing so will mean the tank doesn’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’ll also spend far more on replacing salt than you need to.

The most effective way to fix hard water in your shower is by installing a whole-home water softening system. This system treats water as it enters your home, removing the minerals that cause hardness before they can reach your shower or any other fixtures. While this is the most comprehensive solution, other methods are often temporary fixes. For a more affordable and shower-specific option, you can install a water-softening showerhead or a shower filter. However, these filters are generally less effective and may not remove all the contaminants that lead to limescale and hard water stains. By implementing a water softening solution, you can expect a reduction in mineral deposits and enjoy the benefits of cleaner-feeling hair and skin.

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.
