"Rick advised me via text message what to do to get the system up for a soft restart right away. Then he came to my home, tested my water, and made all the necessary adjustments to make sure the system was working properly. I didnâ t buy the original system from Rick and now I wish I had. I high recommend him!"

"This is gonna be a long one. I contacted Ken as I heard many glowing reviews from people in my area. He answered the phone after hours (7:30 p.m) and was able to ease my mind about an issue I was having with a leak in my wall due to a wire running to my well pump. I talked to people at Lowe's, home depot and a few other places and they all told me to use materials that did not work at all. When I called Ken he told me to use Duct Seal which was $4 bucks (way cheaper than any of the other solutions that I was told to try). I should have called Ken first! I did what Ken told me to and it stopped the leak for the most part, but due to heavy rain the water kind of kept coming in. I called Ken the next morning and told him that I was slightly electrocuted when putting the Duct Seal in. He said he would come on Monday which he did. He inspected my work and informed me of some details that I won't disclose here, but needless to say, he made me feel like responsible homeowner. I had a ton of questions for him which he took the time to answer. He showed me what all the pipes to the water softener go to, all my sump pump questions, well questions, septic tank questions. He answered everything! I was extremely impressed. He gave me his personal cell number and told me to call him if I had any questions at all. On a very personal note, it's extremely difficult to meet someone with Ken's experience, kindness and honesty. He went above and beyond anybody I have ever called to the house. You could tell that he loved what he does. I am 100 percent satisfied and cannot recommend Ken enough. As odd as this is to say, I look forward to Ken fixing my future problems. Now I know that if there are any issues who to call. 5 stars. I'd give 10 if I could. Extremely impressed."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

A good hardness level for drinking water can vary based on personal preferences, but an ideal level is 3.5 to 7 GPG. This means your water isn’t soft or hard. However, some people prefer the “fresh” taste from the minerals in hard water, while others like the smoother, “slippery” texture of soft water.

Soft water is better for your hair. The minerals in hard water can dry out hair, make it brittle, and leave a film on the hair and scalp that may cause irritation. Hard water also doesn't rinse out shampoo and conditioner effectively, which can lead to product buildup that makes hair look dull and limp. You may also find you need to use more shampoo to get a good lather in hard water.

Drinking hard water is not known to have any negative health impacts. Using hard water can lead to dry skin and hair, and the minerals in hard water can build up in pipes, faucets, and appliances. Hard water is more of a threat to your plumbing than it is to your health.

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. 

Replacing a water softener costs $200 to $6,000, depending on the capacity of the water softener, the type of water softener, and the amount of people living in your home. An ion exchange water softener is the most common type and costs $500 to $3,000. Water distillers, which cost $1,200 to $4,000, and dual-tank models, which cost $1,000 to $5,000, are definitely pricey, but they offer more filtration or capacity, respectively.
