"Josh and his team installed a tankless hot water system into my new home. Josh was always super responsive, showed up on time and performed quality work. There was a small issue with a line in our house and he came out immediately to resolve it. Also had his team install two new toilets to our house. Highly recommend him and his team."

"From customer service to installation I couldn’t be happier. My house was built in 1745 so I was concerned with having an old basement. I needn’t have worried. Very professional. Answered all my questions in detail. If you need a water filtration system I wouldn’t hesitate calling clear water pump and well services."

"On Thursday evening at 6:15pm while showering, my water suddenly shut off...water in the entire house, no flow what-so-ever. I called J. Lemme and left a voice message, within 10 minutes I was in contact with a representative from the Company who advised me she could have a service tech here the following morning between 8a and 12p. The techs arrived at 8:30am the following morning and quickly diagnosed the issue as a failed pressure switch caused by a bad storage tank. They left and returned within an hour, restoring my well water function quickly, professionally, and very fairly priced with a new switch and tank!! I would highly recommend J. Lemme for your needs!"

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Choosing involves understanding water hardness levels, household size, desired features, and consulting professionals experienced in suitable system types.

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.

You should not use a water conditioner with a water softener because a water conditioner changes the chemistry of the water and causes the ion exchange in a softener to be ineffective. Choose a water softener if you have hard water or well water, and use a water conditioner if you need to remove certain contaminants.

A water softener is a worthwhile investment if you live in an area with hard water. While hard water is safe to drink, it contains minerals like calcium and magnesium that can cause significant problems over time. These minerals build up inside pipes, reducing water flow and eventually corroding the plumbing system, which can lead to leaks and a shortened lifespan. Hard water also damages fixtures and appliances, potentially resulting in costly repairs. Additionally, it makes soaps and detergents less effective, meaning you'll use more product to get things clean. By installing a water softener, you can prevent these issues. The initial investment is often recouped through long-term savings, including lower energy bills, reduced appliance and plumbing maintenance, and spending less on soap and cleaning supplies. Other benefits include cleaner linens, dishes, and clothing, as well as softer water that is gentler on your skin and hair. In some areas, a water softener can also increase your home's value, making it a valuable long-term investment.
