"They did an excellent job installing the new water softener. They discovered that my pressure reducing valve is no longer functioning and so they replaced that to ensure that the water pressure would not damage not only the water softener, but also the water heater and other appliances and piping within the home. They did an excellent job. They completed it in a timely manner and at a reasonable price. I am happy to recommend them to others that may need water softener service."
"Ive been using Terry for anything plumbing related since 2012. I've had work done to make my water heater work, then eventually replaced my water heater; he helped me set up a bidet and hand rails in my shower for my elderly mom; he’s installed my dishwasher because it needed a longer line. Currently, I have a leak in my main water line between my house and the sidewalk... and I'm sure it's going to be awesome. Terry is great with my mother and my dogs. Love him and happy to have him to call or text whenever I need him. Also, always works me in fast even with my difficult schedule. :)"
"Once I purchased the deals on Angie's list, I received an email and and a phone call to schedule my work the same day. I had two visits booked for that Friday (which was great for scheduling, since I had to take time off work.) The AC person (EJ) came around 10 am, and wrapped up just before the plumber (Dale) came. The faucet replacement was probably the toughest, but he handled it like a champ. I would recommend Manwill, and I'm considering purchasing a water softener from them in the near future. Both people were friendly and professional."
"My water heater went out and I was desperate. He was able to fit me in quickly and get the job done. Very dependable and professional. Will definitely hire again for future projects."

"Wes was very knowledgeable and was able to diagnose the problem with my water heater. We went through my options and Wes educated me along the way to help me make the decision on what I should do. He even showed me what was wrong so I knew I could trust him. Iâ ve already scheduled Plumbing and Company to come back and install a new vanity sink in my bathroom. Glad to have found a plumber I can trust."

Softened water prevents scale deposits, reducing appliance wear, leading to energy savings and longer-lasting household fixtures.
Yes. To get soft water, you can install a water softening system, which will replace the calcium and magnesium ions in the water with sodium or potassium ions. Water softeners cost anywhere from $200 to $6,000, depending on the size and complexity of the system. You can either install a water softener for the whole house or just at your shower heads. If you’re sensitive to sodium or potassium, you can install a salt-free water conditioner.
Soft water is better for your hair. The minerals in hard water can dry out hair, make it brittle, and leave a film on the hair and scalp that may cause irritation. Hard water also doesn't rinse out shampoo and conditioner effectively, which can lead to product buildup that makes hair look dull and limp. You may also find you need to use more shampoo to get a good lather in hard water.
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.
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.
