Best-1 Plumbing & Heating, Inc. was established in 2000 by Jeff Rucinski. Since then, our company has expanded to ten employees. This gives us the manpower we need to handle just about any job, but still allows us to be personally involved with our projects and customers. Area contractors appreciate the kind of quality service and workmanship they have grown to expect when they hire Best-1 Plumbing & Heating. We take pride in the quality of our work, and we know how important it is to get the job done on schedule. Builders know they can count on us when they choose Best-1 Plumbing & Heating to help in constructing their show-case homes. Best-1 Plumbing & Heating, Inc. has a pager system that our customers can utilize in an emergency, giving them peace of mind that their problem will be taken care of as soon as possible. We appreciate the opportunity to bid on your projects, both big and small, and look forward to working with you.

" I have done a lot of business with Best 1 over the last 20 yrs or so in servicing my home and my rentals and they have always charged by time and materials and been very reasonable.  Recently, I had a hot water heater changed out in my home.  To my surprise the bill came and it was billed as a lump sum of $1984. I was shocked to say the least.  This was for a 40 gal, 6yr warranty, reg gas water heater.  They can be found anywhere for under $575.  If you add in $100 for a couple of extra parts  and allow $100 for disposal of the old water heater (which is very generous) you have a total cost of $775. They arrived at 3 pm and left for 45 mins to go get the water heater from the shop, and were done at 5:00  ( 2 men). That is 1.25 hours working time. Allowing for the .75 hrs  to run to the shop, that's 2 hrs x 2 for a total of 4. 1209 divided by 4 is over $300 per hr. Buyer beware I have since gotten several quotes that were over 25% less. Not the company they were under the old owner."

"This company was subcontracted, and they have been terrible. Entire project was delayed because he didn't come out on more than 2 occasions when he said he would. Sent his son out to do the work. Instead of running the hot water line from the shower to the sink, he used the old track and secured the hot water pipe around the entire room, charging more money for the job with the extra pipe being ran. The hot water pipe was ran along an exterior wall. The pipe began freezing. We did heat wrap but ended up having to put a blow dryer in there. The cold water pipe did not freeze at all. The room temperature was roughly 60 degrees. The proximity of the hot water pipe to the wall caused it to freeze. Multiple calls, texts, and voicemails were completely ignored by Bob. Contractor wasn't exactly responsive either. It's now almost a year later and they still have not fixed anything. I keep getting told, when it gets cold. It's been in the 40s already and no fix... "

Residential and business water treatment systems. Water softeners, UV lights. We will analyze your water for contaminants such as chlorine, low pH, iron, bacteria, and devise a system to suit your needs. Treat your water from the source, as it enters your home, so whether you are drinking it, cooking with it or bathing in it, your water is pure.

"The process was quick and easy. I just provided a water sample. It was determined that I had high levels of chlorine in our drinking water. I was able to solve my water problems with only one filter. Why did I wait years to have this done? Now I can be confident that our water is safe. Highly recommended."

"We had this plumber here last February 2020 and we were pleased with him. He said he could redo the plumbing so it would be neater as the guys that had put in the water neutralizer had made quite a menagerie of pipes and etc. He also told us that it appeared that the pressure tank had a small leak and we should think about getting one in advance so we could replace it when needed. We called him for another repair this December 2021 and left messages on 12/10, 12/11 and 12/13 at the 715-453-8240 and he did not return the calls. Thinking that the number may have changed I searched online and found a cell number which I called and got an answer. I told him we had 3 leaks on the 13th of December and he said he couldn't come until the 17th so we limped along until then. When he got here he seemed crabby, he didn't answer my questions(some I asked 3 times) and he did the repairs which included two pipe leaks, a leaking pressure switch and he hooked up the new pressure tank. After they left we ran the water and the pump was short cycling. Come to find out he never set the pressure switch correctly so it was set at 40/30 so the pump was cycling off and on continuously when we ran the water. I should've stopped payment on the check. We adjusted the pressure switch and corrected the pressure tank as well. Also, he didn't have any 1 inch pipe so I found a piece of new 1 inch pipe that we had, then he needed a 1 inch to 3/4 inch tee that he didn't have so he had to go to Merrill to get that, we're in Gleason I was thinking, "what do you have in that fancy truck if you don't have these parts?" Then he charged us for the time it took for him to go to Merrill and back too yet. Very disappointed in his work. Will not be calling him again."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

DIY installation is sometimes plausible, improving efficiency and reducing expenses, but adherence to safety practices guarantees optimal performance.

Most of the U.S. has hard water, especially across portions of the West and Midwest. The areas with the hardest water include parts of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, Wyoming, Illinois, North and South Dakota, Ohio, and New York. You’ll find soft water in parts of New England, the Southeast, the Pacific Northwest, and Hawaii.

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.

The best way to fix hard water in a shower is by installing a water softener system. This is the only way to truly ensure that hard water doesn't enter your shower—or any part of your home beyond the water softener. Most other methods are temporary fixes. While you can choose a shower filter, these filters aren’t as effective and may not remove many contaminants that cause limescale and hard water stains.

Water softeners are worth the money if you live in an area with hard water. Hard water is safe to drink, but it poses serious threats to your plumbing system. The minerals in hard water will gradually build up on the inside walls of your pipes, reducing water flow to your fixtures. The minerals can also gradually corrode your plumbing system, reduce its lifespan, and increase the risk of leaks. Hard water also makes soap and detergent less effective. Water softener systems can solve all these issues, making them a great investment.
