"Very professional. Prompt. They came when they said they would. Our kitchen sink was leaking, actually what water came out of the faucet was draining into the bucket under the sink so that the sink was unusable. He fixed it quickly and explained what was wrong. Unfortunately, the garbage disposal was also leaking as well. I had him return and install a new garbage disposal and a new toilet the next Friday. Again, he and a partner returned exactly when he said. One fixed the garbage disposal and thr other worked on the toilet. They finished quickly and left everything clean. Would highly recommend."

The problem with most "pros"? Too many bad habits. \nIt's easy to get swept away in the day to day monotony, even for those that call themselves "pros". When it comes to hiring a heating and cooling technician, nobody wants to deal with being treated like a sale rather than a person, the use of scare tactics instead of education, or someone who just wants to get to job done quickly instead of correctly. \nAll our HVAC pros go through 5 years of HVAC schooling, for a total of 10,000 hours of on-the-job training. And it's not just technical training either; it's training that focuses on you, on making you feel comfortable every step of the way. We will roll out the red carpet for you, both figuratively and literally. \nRed Carpet Treatment \nDuring every visit to a home, we lay out an actual red carpet to prevent any additional mess. But what may be even more important than just protecting your home is making sure you feel like you've received the best in customer service.

"Homer 9 and Sons were excellent to work with from start to finish. They responded promptly to my request for a quote and worked closely with me to ensure that I understand all of my options throughout the entire purchasing process. On installation day the entire crew arrived promptly on time and got to work immediately. They were able to replace both my entire furnace and AC as well as install several new registers and a return to add heat to a finished basement all in a single day. The entire crew was friendly and professional the entire time they were in my home. I can't recommend Homer 9 and Sons strongly enough. Every person I worked with at the company from Shaun in sales, to Ken in installation planning, and to Perry and his installation crew were excellent to work with from start to finish. Would absolutely hire again."

Water Softeners FAQs, answered by experts

While it depends on how complicated the unit and installation is, it takes two to four hours to install a water softener unit, on average. It might take longer if pipes need to be replaced. You should make sure the installation area is clear of any objects that might get in the way before you begin.

Whether you need a permit or license for a water softener installation depends on your location, as requirements vary significantly. Some municipalities require the installer to hold a plumbing license, some mandate a permit and an inspection, and others require both. In some areas, no special permit or license is needed at all.

To determine the rules in your area, you can contact your local building department or consult a local water softener installer or plumber. Often, only certified professionals are authorized to pull the necessary permits, and they will typically handle the entire permitting process 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 Angi’s state licensing tool to check an installer’s license status.

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.

You can decide whether you need a water softener or water filter based on how your bathing or laundry experience is. If you notice issues like limescale buildup, dry skin, or stains on dishes—all telltale signs of hard water—you'd likely benefit from a water softener. However, if your main concern is over chemicals or bacteria in your tap water filter, and not just comfort, a filter is a better option.

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.
