"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."

"Job was completed in one day. It was convenient. I woke up with no hot water. Called Hill's (it was on a Friday) around 10am and they had one of their plumbers call me right back so I could explain the problem. He gave me a time that he would be at my home. He called me when he was on the way. He arrived at the time he had said he would (3:30pm). He showed me the problem. Water heater was leaking. (It was 22 years old). It needed to be replaced. I didn't have time or a truck to go purchase one myself. He replaced it and we had hot water by 6pm."

"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

No. You should never directly drain a water softener into a sewer cleanout. This practice is illegal in many areas because it could allow raw sewage to get into your drinking water and make you seriously ill. Many places have codes requiring a specific seal, pipe, and a large air gap between a water softener and a sewage cleanout. Check out Florida's Plumbing Building Code as an example of what these restrictions might look like.

It’s not a good idea to oversize your water softener. Doing so will mean the tank doesn’t get full, which can lead to channeling. This leads to a large portion of the resin beads not being utilized and the beads at the bottom of the tank being overused. Over time, this will reduce the efficiency of your system, not to mention that the upfront cost of an oversized softener is unnecessarily high. If you have a timed regeneration cycle rather than a demand-based one, you’ll also spend far more on replacing salt than you need to.

The most effective way to fix hard water in your shower is by installing a whole-home water softening system. This system treats water as it enters your home, removing the minerals that cause hardness before they can reach your shower or any other fixtures. While this is the most comprehensive solution, other methods are often temporary fixes. For a more affordable and shower-specific option, you can install a water-softening showerhead or a shower filter. However, these filters are generally less effective and may not remove all the contaminants that lead to limescale and hard water stains. By implementing a water softening solution, you can expect a reduction in mineral deposits and enjoy the benefits of cleaner-feeling hair and skin.

The chemicals in a water softener can wear down the anode rod in the heater and shorten its life span. However, for most people, the benefits of the softener outweigh this potential drawback.

Have a plumber inspect the anode rod annually for damage, as replacing the anode rod is far less expensive than replacing the entire water heater.

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