"I recently had a water softener installed by Aquascience of NY and couldn't be happier with the experience. After our first phone conversation with Stephen, the process moved smoothly. The site visit was thorough, and we quickly signed the order. The installation team was professional, helpful, and incredibly knowledgeable about the system. They designed and executed the installation with outstanding attention to detail. Overall, I highly recommend their services for anyone in need of a water softener."

"Mike is the real deal. I had both my sediment filter and water softener fail nearly the same day. Speaking to Mike on the phone convinced me he was the plumber to work with. He was able to install a new sediment filter and Water Softener for me at a reasonable price and is a complete professional."

"The Boilerman saved me on New Years Eve! I got in over my head with a valve installation on my water main and thought FOR SURE I was going to completely flood my basement. He reassured me that everything was going to be ok over the phone, arrived when promised, talked me off the ledge, and promptly fixed the problem I'd created and helped me install the valve as intended. I really appreciated his expertise, assurance, good nature, and humor. Highly recommend!"

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

There are several things that can shorten the life of a water softener. Homes with very hard water may have to replace the unit sooner because the water softener works harder to filter out the hard minerals. High water usage and infrequent maintenance can also put more strain on a water softener.

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.

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.

Most experts agree there’s not much difference health-wise between hard water versus soft water. That said, hard water is more likely to cause skin dryness and issues that go along with it, like an itchy or flaky scalp. Hard water can also decrease the life span of your household appliances and make it more difficult for soap to do its job.

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.
