"Expert Water Systems truly is Utah’s BEST company in water softener in KNOWLEDGE, VALUE, SERVICE, PRODUCTS and WARRANTY! We have previously owned two different Superior water softeners and our most recent system broke and I was shocked at how expensive a new water softener would be. I did extensive research and reading of reviews (hours and hours) on several different kinds of water softeners (sold at Amazon, Sams, Costco, Lowe’s, Home Depot, Superior Water, Kinetico, and Culligan) and watched literally every You Tube video on “best water softeners”. I then got an installation bid from three local plumbers and found it would cost an expensive $800 just to install a softener that I purchased at Amazon, Sams, Home Depot, Lowe’s, or etc. with only a 1 year limited product warranty or one the plumber could pick up similarly in price and warranty at a business where only plumbers can purchase softeners. During one of the plumber’s bid, he discovered my main water pressure valve was broke and which was reading 95-110 PSI which is too high and most likely was the cause that broke our old water softener. The plumber bid $500 to fix my pressure valve. After these bids, I realized I wanted more than a limited one year product warranty on a new water softener and so I decided to get a bid from an company that specializes in water softeners, so I had Superior Water come to my home to give me a bid. Superior Water’s bid was a choice of two water softeners for the outrageous purchase and install price of $2,395 & $3,995 and also a RO water purifier for $1,295. I felt Superiors prices were Outrageously Expensive so I kept searching. FINALLY, I found FANTASTIC REVIEWS on a newer company called EXPERT WATER SYSTEMS, so I called and had the owner, Nick, and he came out to give me a bid and I was very impressed with his knowledge. Nick was a previous employee at Superior Water and has broke away and started up his own company. Nick builds his own systems and does NOT use parts from China. After my discussion with Nick, I was confident I had found who I wanted to do business with. I purchased a water softener for $1,850 INSTALLED WITH A 15 YEAR WARRANTY (similar to Superior’s $2,395 system with a only a limited 3 year labor 10 year parts warranty) and I paid Nick only $185 to fix and replace our main water pressure valve (same service that the plumber bid $500 to fix). My research paid off! I found Expert Water Systems was the MOST KNOWLEDGEABLE, offered the MOST CHOICES (36 different water softener systems), had the BEST KNOWLEDGE, BEST VALUE, BEST PRODUCTS, BEST WARRANTY and BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE! Hopefully the extensive time I spent on researching water softeners, reading reviews and getting bids, will help someone else in their decision. Go with Expert Water Systems, YOU WILL SAVE MONEY and have a BETTER WARRANTY! With the money I ended up saving, I inquired with Nick about RO water purification systems and I ended up buying a purification system too from Nick for $799 installed (similar to Superior’s system for $1,395) and now we have PURE drinking water in a separate smaller designer faucet at our kitchen sink and also in the water line going to our refrigerator (pure cold drinking water and pure ice)! Additionally, upon installing our new Softener and RO purifier, Nick and his son, found two small leaks not related to their install and they fixed them without an additional charge, now that is what I call EXCEPTIONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE!"

"Of course plumbing problems are like medical emergencies. They only happen on weekends and holidays! LOL My daughter was staying with me and she came to my room in the middle of the night to tell me there was water all over the floor in the downstairs bathroom. We waited until about 8 a.m. then called Eric. He said he was on his way to Provo for an emergency, but would be to my house by 10. At about 9:45 he called and said he was on his way. When I opened the door, I saw a young man, nicely dressed and very professional. He came in, assessed the problem and went back out to his truck. He brought in the drain cleaning machine and broke up the clog in no time at all. Yay! methinks. He was able to take my credit card and off he went on another call. I proceeded to start a batch of laundry and, OH NO! the drain back up again. I texted Eric back and he was at my house in minutes. He explained that sometimes the clog is so thick, it collapses back on itself. He recleaned the drain and suggested some remedies I could try to keep it from happening again. I am very impressed with Eric and his business practices. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

"Excellent. Superior’s Stratton did an excellent job. Took time to explain what he was doing and also recommended that we get the water softener checked. The container for the salt was leaking so Stratton replaced it. We will definitely recommend Superior water and air."

"Wonderful! I was happy they were able to come out the same day and I only needed one technician for all 3 systems. Other places I've worked with in the past had separate plumbing and HVAC technicians (which means 2 service charges). I was given a 2 hour window in which to expect the technician to arrive. David Newsome called 1/2 hour into that 2 hour window arrival to let me know his ETA, and he arrived when he said he would. He alleviated our fears that water had gotten into the vents, explained that the high humidity remaining from the basement flood was why the A/C was working harder than usual and dripping water from the vents, made sure the water heater was working fine and was not damaged by the flood, and did a full inspection (essentially a fall tuneup) of our heater. He even identified that one of the de-humidifiers left by the emergency cleanup crew we hired was not running and reset it! David was very professional and pleasant to work with, and even made friends with our yappy dachshunds. I chose Manwill based on Angie's List reviews, and am very glad I did. Great experience. I'll be calling them again for our future plumbing and HVAC needs."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

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

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 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

If your ‘do isn’t doing what you want it to do despite using good hair care products, hard water might be to blame. Since hard water can’t rinse soap off as well as soft water can, your hair might grow limp because of the shampoo and conditioner residue that’s left behind. If you color your hair, you might see it fade more quickly or even turn a different shade as the dye reacts with the minerals in the water. You might also experience an itchy scalp, thanks to the dryness that comes from bathing in the hard water.

Replacing a water softener costs $200 to $6,000, depending on the capacity of the water softener, the type of water softener, and the amount of people living in your home. An ion exchange water softener is the most common type and costs $500 to $3,000. Water distillers, which cost $1,200 to $4,000, and dual-tank models, which cost $1,000 to $5,000, are definitely pricey, but they offer more filtration or capacity, respectively.
