Q: Is hard water healthier than soft water?

• <div><p>Most experts agree there&rsquo;s not much difference health-wise between <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/hard-vs-soft-water.htm">hard water versus soft water</a>. That said, hard water is more likely to cause skin dryness and issues that go along with it, like an itchy or flaky scalp. Hard water can also decrease the life span of your household appliances and make it more difficult for soap to do its job.</p></div>

Q: What are the side effects of drinking hard water?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: Can hard water cause hair loss?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s unlikely that hard water on its own could cause substantial hair loss or damage, though it&rsquo;s true that bathing in hard water can cause your scalp to feel itchy or flaky and might dull your hair&rsquo;s natural shine. Using high-quality shampoo and conditioner or buying a whole-home water softener can decrease these issues.</p></div>

Q: How far away does a tankless water heater need to be from a softener?

• <div><p>A tankless water heater should be at least 10 feet away from a water softener, although the pros you hire for water softener installation can help you determine the correct distance. These two units need to have some distance between them to prevent hot water from the tankless water heater from flowing backward into the water softener when it runs a regeneration cycle.</p></div>

Q: Will a water descaler descale pipes?

• <div><p>No, a water descaler won't descale pipes. The charged water running through the pipes may very slowly dissolve mineral deposits and hold them inside the water, but it's a very gradual process. If your pipes do need descaling, it's much better to get a local plumber to descale your pipes. </p></div>

Otto is excellent. He came out to replace my water heater. He is reasonably priced, professional and easy to talk to. I will definitely be calling him back when I am ready for more work that needs done.

Prompt reply to my inquiry and the job done shortly thereafter. The crew kept the project tidy by putting paper down and cleaned up afterwards very well. Wonderful skills to repair/match plaster repair on wall where I had water damage. I would 100% recommend them

Awful. I trusted Perry, and paid him $4,200 cash upfront. Perry and his helper came out to replace the pipes under the home. He didn't replace all of them. He also didn't bother to discard or haul off the pipes he took out. Perry said that the water company fixed the water main for me. Perry...

I don't think they have people, they bring it out, but it is like they hire people to bring it out. If you have to go pick up something in Lowe's, they won't help you put it up in the truck in case it breaks, they don't want it to break. We thought it leaked, but it ended up to be rain that had...
