"Simply PUR was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. They were personable and provided us with a lot of information and answered all of our questions. The installation process went smooth and they came back to check our water filtration systems and retested my water. They were honest and sincere and most importantly very reliable and professional the whole way through. Its always a pleasure dealing with Simply PUR. I highly recommend using this company and will continue to refer my friends and family to use them."

"Andy was quick, clean and very professional. I only requested the concrete and driveway and he noticed how much mildew was growing on the side of my building and with hesitation power washed that as well. Thank you for your services, I would definitely recommend his services to my family and friends."

"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!"

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Whether you need a permit or license for a water softener installation depends on your location, as requirements vary significantly. Some municipalities require the installer to hold a plumbing license, some mandate a permit and an inspection, and others require both. In some areas, no special permit or license is needed at all.

To determine the rules in your area, you can contact your local building department or consult a local water softener installer or plumber. Often, only certified professionals are authorized to pull the necessary permits, and they will typically handle the entire permitting process for you. Regardless of local laws, it is always recommended to hire a licensed professional to ensure the system is sized and installed correctly. You can use Angi’s state licensing tool to check an installer’s license status.

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.

A lower-end water softener would cost around $900, not including installation. Each home has different requirements, water hardness, and number of inhabitants, so there’s a huge range in pricing—$600 to over $6,000. The average water softener repair bill is around $500, meaning it’s a much better option to repair any issues and only replace your softener if absolutely necessary. 

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. 

Water softeners have many benefits. The most important one is converting previously hard water—water with too many minerals—to more usable, easier water. When we say easier water, we mean water that’s easier to digest, less harsh on skin and clothes, and builds up less in the water system. Softer water may lead to lower energy costs and will extend the lifespan of all appliances that use water.
