"Our older home had some major damage done to the basement wall in one area years ago, and other contractors would only replace the entire wall. Adelios listened to our concerns offered a solution we could live with not trying to sell anything we didnt need. The work team were hardworking and respectful of property. Cleaned things up in and out. We are glad we chose them."

"Excellent. McGuire installed my new Delta faucet. While doing so, we saw the sink was pulled away from the counter and sunk. It was installed 17 years ago. The sticks were worn, the basket was bad, which we didn't know at the time. McGuire called his boss, Mike who came over and along with Mike fixed my sink. Fabulous service and quality."

"I had a sewage pump fail with flooding in my basement. The system was installed by the prior owner and I had little information about it. I talked to 6 different plumbers and my city with 4 professionals coming to my house and failing to diagnose the problem. Eventually, I was referred to Harper Well & Pump. Mike was prompt in helping me diagnose the problem over the phone and said he could bring several parts for different potential solutions in the morning. He arrived when he said he would and made surprisingly quick work confirming the problem, replacing a failed sewage pump and its system, and replacing the old worn crock seal. Work was tidy."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Costs hinge on system type, household size, professional, and complexity, ranging between $800 and $2,500 for complete systems.

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

No. You should never directly drain a water softener into a sewer cleanout. This practice is illegal in many areas because it could allow raw sewage to get into your drinking water and make you seriously ill. Many places have codes requiring a specific seal, pipe, and a large air gap between a water softener and a sewage cleanout. Check out Florida's Plumbing Building Code as an example of what these restrictions might look like.

Water softener life spans range from 10 to 25 years, with most lasting around 15 years on average. After the 10-year mark, you may see your softener’s performance diminish as it progresses in age. Proper water softener maintenance can impact how long your water softener lasts. Likewise, a home with very hard water or a high demand will put more demand on your softener, which in turn shortens its life span.

The most accurate way to determine whether you have hard water is to purchase a water test kit from a hardware store or send a tap water sample to a lab. But there are some signs you can look out for without professional testing. For instance, if you're consistently dealing with mineral stains on your glassware, windows, and shower doors, you're likely to have hard water. Hard water can also make it harder to lather and rinse soap, so if you're struggling to work up a good lather in the shower, hard water might be the culprit.
