"Sullivan plumbing responded quickly, and did highly reliable, expert work for us. They installed new gas lines for the gas stove, and ran plumbing for relocating the washer/dryer. They also repaired a problem in the bathroom. Every time they come, they are quick, reliable, and the work is done right the first time. Highly recommend."

"There was a Culligan system in our new house. I had them come in to service the unit because we were having horrible iron staining issues. They did a review of the system and maintenance and said it was now working fine. The horrible staining persisted. We then had Kinetico come in, recommended by a neighbor. We found out the system was not working at all. They installed a new system for a decent price. It uses a good deal less salt. I have had no staining and the soft water is exceptional and does not taste salty at all. We had Robert come back a few weeks later and retest our water and it is perfect. After a month there is still no staining. Before it would stain within 3 days. We are extremely happy with this system, our salt use is minimal and there wonâ t be any maintenance for years."
"It went great. New home with well. Needed added "omph" in our water pressure so Steve Martin came out did water samples and discussed options. We opted for both a water pump add on and water softening system. We are thrilled with the increase in water pressure for showering/bathing. I really like the softened water, my hair is much easier to style and laundry is soft and smells great. I use less detergent and much less fabric sooner. My husband likes the increased water pressure for the lawn sprinkling and when using a hose to pressure wash or water our outdoor plants. We highly recommend Kinetico as the the install service guys we're terrific! Lastly Steve came back out and did repeat water samples and they all with within normal range with the newly added softening system."
"Todd the owner was very precise with communication, explaining the process, and following through with the work performed. Him and his workers were very professional and made this experience painless and stress free. Very detailed oriented and treated my home as if it were their own. Highly recommend!"
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.
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.
Some shower water softeners are effective, but this isn’t always the case. Most shower filters only filter out chlorine, not hard minerals like calcium. Other shower filters can't handle the demand in homes with very hard water. It's also important to change the filters on your shower filters. Failure to regularly swap out old filters will make the filter ineffective over time.
Water softeners have many benefits. The most important one is converting previously hard water—water with too many minerals—to more usable, easier water. When we say easier water, we mean water that’s easier to digest, less harsh on skin and clothes, and builds up less in the water system. Softer water may lead to lower energy costs and will extend the lifespan of all appliances that use water.
Selecting the right system depends on testing your water to understand the contaminants present and considering your household's water usage and specific needs, such as removing specific contaminants.
