"We are so happy we had The Water Doctors install our Kinetco water softener system in our Shelton Washington home. We put off having a water treatment system when the first company wanted over $8000 for a electric system. The Kinetco system is much less expensive and uses clean water to flush. We have noticed the significant difference already. Shane and one other installer arrived on time and took just about 3 1/2 hours to install with water being secured for only a few minutes. Shane did an awesome job explaining the system and how to take care of it. When all was done there was no mess and fresh clean water in our home."

"We recently had our hot water heater replaced by Colin at Independent Plumbing, and I can’t say enough good things about the experience. Colin was incredibly professional, responsive, knowledgeable, and easy to work with from start to finish. He communicated clearly, showed up when promised, and completed the work efficiently and with great attention to detail. It’s hard to find someone who takes this much pride in their work and truly cares about customer service. The entire process was smooth and stress-free, and the quality of the installation was excellent. I would highly recommend Colin and Independent Plumbing to anyone looking for honest, dependable, and top-notch plumbing service!"

"Used HomeAdvisor for first time and found Juhola Inc listed. Water was out on Saturday night so called Mike (owner)Monday am. Mike was here that afternoon and Found the bad wiring on the pvc pipe down to the well pump. Pulled the pump and repaired the wiring and added a buffer so that wouldn't happen again as well as a new control box. I rarely leave any review but wanted to comment on Mike as others had. Mike was very impressive in his fair pricing, Service calls alone in area are $133-$145. I felt the repair pricing was more than fair. I highly recommend checking with Juhola Inc / Mike before you call others if you're in his service area. Outstanding service, quality work and a great guy besides. Give Mike a try, I'm sure you'll agree like I did, these 5.0 reviews are solid and worthy of Mikes business. 1st time I've used Mike, but now will only use Mike for any well issues in the future if needed."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

A lower-end water softener would cost around $900, not including installation. Each home has different requirements, water hardness, and number of inhabitants, so there’s a huge range in pricing—$600 to over $6,000. The average water softener repair bill is around $500, meaning it’s a much better option to repair any issues and only replace your softener if absolutely necessary. 

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. 

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.

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.

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.
