"It’s nice to have clean Pure water from the faucets . No more chlorine in my showers or hard water film. The reverse osmosis system is the best. Clear coffee and tea . All taste 100% pure. Regular glass of water actually taste good . No more salty taste or chlorine in water. It’s the simple things in life we can enjoy. My skin rashes are leaving without the Dr’s creams and ointments. A plus when you are suffering from psoriasis. We are saving money already on soap, laundry detergent, shampoo etc. now a little dab will give a full lather. This unit will pay for itself in the health benefits alone. From the sales staff, installers, and office staff I want to say they all are professional and concerned with client satisfaction and the quality of their products. We can’t take good water for granted."

"Very good. He was thorough and took videos. I had no leak as water company suggested. It was error (ahem) with meter reader. He is going to write letter on my behalf and mail it certified. Hard to find honest dependable contractors but I highly recommend South East plumbing and gas. Yes I will use him again. He came on a Saturday evening and did not charge me crazy after hour fees. Nice courteous and fair priced."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

It depends on the type of surface. For instance, if you’re trying to get rid of hard water deposits on glass, you can spray vinegar onto the surface and wipe it off with a soft cloth or non-abrasive sponge. However, if the deposits are on granite or natural stone, it’s better to use baking soda and water rather than vinegar or other acidic cleaners.

Hard water is not considered unhealthy and is safe to drink, cook with, and bathe in. It doesn't pose a risk to your physical health and can even help you get enough essential minerals like calcium in your diet. However, it can negatively affect skin and hair. Using hard water for washing can contribute to dry skin, an itchy scalp, and may worsen conditions like eczema by altering the pH balance. Additionally, some people do not like the taste of hard water.

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.

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

The main difference between a water softener and a water filter is what they remove from the water. A water softener is specifically designed to remove hard minerals, while a filter removes a wider range of contaminants above a certain size, such as bacteria and other impurities. If your primary goal is to remove minerals, a softener is the best choice. If you want to remove various contaminants for safety or taste, a filter is more suitable. Filters are also typically less expensive to install. Depending on your water supply's specific issues, you may need to install both systems for comprehensive treatment.
