"Negative a million stars. Worst contractor experience we have ever had. They only fixed the leaks they caused after we tried to initiate a refund. Our old mini split system upstairs needed to be replaced and we were referred to Blind and Sons. They came out and quoted us a good price and installed the new system the following week. The three weeks that followed were a nightmare. We noticed one of the units dripping down the wall; a tech came back and tightened a connector in the wall. We then noticed a dripping noise in the wall from the same unit; a tech came back again and made a plan to replace the new pump they just installed. Meanwhile our baseboards were now warped and untold water damage in our walls. Then we noticed a puddle by the other unit, a dripping noise in another wall and more water damage; another tech visit where they scheduled a follow up installer visit. The installer never showed up. They rescheduled for the next day (Friday), then cancelled and offered to call u"

Residential and business water treatment systems. Water softeners, UV lights. We will analyze your water for contaminants such as chlorine, low pH, iron, bacteria, and devise a system to suit your needs. Treat your water from the source, as it enters your home, so whether you are drinking it, cooking with it or bathing in it, your water is pure.

"The process was quick and easy. I just provided a water sample. It was determined that I had high levels of chlorine in our drinking water. I was able to solve my water problems with only one filter. Why did I wait years to have this done? Now I can be confident that our water is safe. Highly recommended."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Experts recommend that you put two to four bags of potassium chloride in your water softener every month. This amount depends on how much is in the bag (40 pounds is most common) and what your water softener manufacturer recommends. For more specific advice, talk to a water softener pro in your area and read the manual that came with your system.

Hard water isn’t unhealthy. It’s safe to drink, bathe in, and cook with. However, it can make some skin, hair, and scalp problems, such as eczema, worse by affecting the pH balance of your skin and hair. Additionally, some people don’t like the taste of hard water, but it does contain minerals that are important to your overall health, like calcium.

It does cost money to have a water softener, both for installation and ongoing maintenance. Additionally, the taste of your water will be altered, especially if sodium is the ingredient you use to run the water softening system. Look up exactly what your chosen water softener will remove and what will remain because not all systems provide the same results.

DIY installation is sometimes plausible, improving efficiency and reducing expenses, but adherence to safety practices guarantees optimal performance.

Because it’s been through the water cycle, evaporating and becoming slightly acidic thanks to dissolved carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, rainwater tends to be naturally soft compared to groundwater, which has just been in contact with limestone. However, the natural hardness level of water always depends on where you are and other factors.
