"Super good and fast. Only company to call me back after a leak sprung on the weekend. Replaced a section of pipe in my tight crawl space and installed a water shut-off valve under my sidewalk--all in less than 2 hours. No leaks. Easy to turn off water. They get paid by the job (not by the hour), so no wasted time. Plumbing is spendy though."

"Evergreen Plumbing & Mechanical replaced 2 20+ year old water heaters.  I changed from 40 to 50 gallon tanks.  This was the  most professional service I have received in years.  That morning at the exact time expected the truck showed up with 2 hot water heaters.  Within seconds Evergreen arrived with 3 people to remove and place the new tanks.  Evergreen handled everything right down to permits etc.  This could not have been eaiser and a huge savings from using either of the big box stores.  I have already passed his information to my neighbor.

"I would absolutely recommend Joe for any well water issues. After months of having troubles with air in our water lines and multiple attempts by other companies to solve the problem, Joe came out and knew just what was wrong. He was very kind and took the time to explain to us how different parts of our water system worked and explained what he was doing to correct the air problem. Joe is my new go to guy for any well water problems in the future!!"

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

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.

The average cost to install a water softener, including the system and labor, is approximately $1,500. However, the total price can range widely from $600 to $6,000. For some complete systems, the cost may be between $800 and $2,500. Labor for the installation typically costs between $150 and $1,000.

The final price is influenced by several factors, including:

  • System type, capacity, and complexity

  • Home size and household water demands

  • Water hardness levels

  • Accessibility of the installation site and the extent of plumbing work required

  • Whether new electrical work is needed

  • The professional hired and any local permit costs

You can install a water softener system by turning off the water supply, draining the water, and then connecting your device to the waterline. Next, you’ll fill your tank with the recommended amount of salt or brine (whichever your unit calls for; be sure to read the instructions). Turn the water supply on and check for leaks. You can opt to let your water run for a few minutes, then test it using strips. 

The process of inspecting your water softener system is similar.

Whether you need a license or permit for water softener installation depends on your location. Some municipalities require the installer to hold a plumbing license, while others may only require a permit and an inspection. In some cases, both a permit and a licensed installer are necessary, and some areas have no requirements at all. Often, only certified plumbers and electricians are allowed to pull the necessary permits. To find out the specific regulations in your area, you can contact your local building department. Alternatively, a local water softener installer or plumber will be familiar with the requirements and can typically pull the permits for you. Regardless of local laws, it is always recommended to hire a licensed professional to ensure the system is sized and installed correctly. You can use tools like Angi’s state licensing tool to verify an installer's license status.

Water purifiers and water softeners serve different purposes, so the best one will depend on your particular needs. Water purifiers remove contaminants from water (such as bacteria, viruses, and chemicals), leaving you with ultra-clean and safe water. However, water softeners remove minerals from your water so that the water doesn’t leave stains around your house or cause plumbing problems.
