"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."

"Had a big job of 4 water heaters in four different units. Platinum Plumbing blocked off the entire day to get them all done at once. They are friendly, professional, and when it comes to water heaters, very fast. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking at having their water heater replaced. I will use them in the future for other plumbing needs should they arise. Thank you!!"

"I could not reach the water shutoff to the washer because the W/D were on pedestals. I needed to have the pedestals removed. Hardie Plumbing (Chris & Chris) were able to remove the W/D from the pedestal drawers without uninstalling the appliances. They happened to have moving straps on the truck making this job easier. Now I can reach the water shutoff for the washing machine. Really appreciated their problem-solving and simplification of this project."

"One could not ask for much more with Vlad from AWP. He was willing to take the time to discuss what he was doing and explain options. His work is very neat and precise and he maintained a very clean work environment. As someone who does most of their own work, I can assure you that I will utilize AWP for all my plumbing needs in the future."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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. 

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 primary difference between a water softener and a water filter lies in what they remove from the water. A water softener is designed to remove hard minerals like calcium and magnesium. In contrast, a water filter has a broader effect, removing various contaminants above a certain size, which can include bacteria and other impurities.

To decide which you need, consider your goal. If you want to eliminate hard minerals, choose a softener. If you want to remove a wide range of contaminants, a filter is the better option. Filters are also generally less expensive to install. Depending on your water supply, you may need to install both for comprehensive treatment.
