"Simply PUR recently installed a whole house water filtration/softening system, along with an RO system, in my home and did an amazing job. My experience with Vincent and his wife Claudia throughout the whole process was wonderful. They thoroughly explained the system, the installation process, and answered all my questions. The install went smooth, and Vincent even took care of a flawed plumbing trap previously done. What I appreciated most was how Vincent assured me he would continue to follow-up with me on when I should check my salt levels, change my filters, and if there are any updates with the equipment. I now have piece of mind knowing I'm providing clean and safe drinking water to my family. Thanks Simply PUR!!!"

"I am now on their maintenance program. I pay a reasonable yearly fee and they come to me like clockwork. I am called a day or two before. They give me a 3 hour time frame and they show up right on time. It takes maybe 5 minutes for them to add the salt fix the timer test the water. The last person that came was Joey who is friendly, courteous and knowledgeable. So are all their other employee. They are great to work with."

"Joe was prompt and came to check the issue on the same day I called . He did a neat job replacing our water boiler for a fair price. He was very professional and easy to work with. He also followed up on the job to ensure we had hot water. I would highly recommend him."

"There was damage to a lower ceiling from a bathroom on the upper floor. The plumber reset the toilet in the upper bathroom, which looked like it was the correct thing to do at the time, but the next day, the ceiling was still wet, and I discovered that the waste pipe had a hole in it, in two places, and the plumber had to come back, replace that pipe, reset the toilet again, at additional expense. He did a good job though, and hopefully no more leaks."

Water Softeners FAQs, answered by experts

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.

If your water softener repair is fairly straightforward, like a simple filter replacement, then you can probably do it yourself with little risk. However, anything beyond a simple fix should be addressed by someone with extensive plumbing expertise to avoid costly water softener problems, like leaks. 

That said, even simple problems can be complicated to diagnose, particularly if your water softener is attached to a whole-house treatment system. So, unless you feel absolutely certain that the problem is an easy fix that you can take on yourself, it's probably best to hire a plumber to diagnose and fix the problem.

Most of the U.S. has hard water, especially across portions of the West and Midwest. The areas with the hardest water include parts of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, Wyoming, Illinois, North and South Dakota, Ohio, and New York. You’ll find soft water in parts of New England, the Southeast, the Pacific Northwest, and Hawaii.

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.

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.
