"BUYER BEWARE: On Sept 10, 2025, BlueDrop installed a reverse osmosis system under our kitchen sink. Within hours it failed, flooding our kitchen and basement. Their own plumber confirmed a failed component from installation caused the leak. A restoration company documented saturated walls, cabinets, floors, and basement; demo/rebuild required, fans ran 24/7 for a week. BlueDrop waited a week to file a claim, then their insurer denied liability despite a 30-day workmanship/materials warranty. We?ve now gone 2+ weeks without use of our washer, dryer, or kitchen, forced to hire legal counsel, a public adjuster, and involve our insurance. One BlueDrop contact gave occasional updates, but leadership ignored direct outreach. You pay $2K+ for a filter and instead get water pouring from your basement ceiling. This has been the worst experience we?ve ever had with a company. Think very carefully before proceeding?one bad part can cause massive disruption, leave you responsible"

"When my burner broke down (after 40+ years!), I was in a panic with no heat. I contacted 3 plumbing services, but it was CJ's Plumbing that immediately came to assess the damage and set up a replacement for the following Monday. Chris and his crew were at my home first thing Monday morning, and the new system is fantastic! They removed all the old parts, pipes and gadgets, installing state-of-the-art pieces that Chris said would last for 30 years. Once installation was finished, they cleaned the entire basement for me, removing small parts and debris, as I have two cats. It was a very successful and satisfying operation, and I would definitely recommend CJ's Plumbing to anyone who needs help with plumbing or heating issues."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

While not everyone can detect taste differences in high-calcium water, water that has a slightly metallic taste probably has too much calcium.

Softened water prevents scale deposits, reducing appliance wear, leading to energy savings and longer-lasting household fixtures.

Soft water is better for your hair. The minerals in hard water can impact hair in a number of ways. It can cause the hair to dry out and become brittle, and it can require you to use more shampoo to get a good lather. The hard water may leave a film on the hair and scalp from mineral buildup, which may also cause some irritation.

Whether or not your water softener installation requires a permit depends on where you live; some municipalities only let certified plumbers and electricians pull the necessary permits and complete the work, others only require a professional to sign off on the work, and some don’t mandate permits at all. You can contact your local building department to find out, but you can also ask a local water softener installer or plumber to see if a permit is necessary. They will usually pull the permits for you and can help close them out after the work is complete.

Water softener versus water filter: which one should you choose? If you want to remove minerals, opt for a softener. If you want to remove a wide range of contaminants, go for a filter. Or, you can install both.
