"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... "

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

No. You should never directly drain a water softener into a sewer cleanout. This practice is illegal in many areas because it could allow raw sewage to get into your drinking water and make you seriously ill. Many places have codes requiring a specific seal, pipe, and a large air gap between a water softener and a sewage cleanout. Check out Florida's Plumbing Building Code as an example of what these restrictions might look like.

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.

No, a water descaler won't descale pipes. The charged water running through the pipes may very slowly dissolve mineral deposits and hold them inside the water, but it's a very gradual process. If your pipes do need descaling, it's much better to get a local plumber to descale your pipes.

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

The license requirements for water softener installation depend on your location. Some municipalities require that the installer hold a plumbing license, some require a permit and an inspection, but no license for the installer, and some require a permit and a license for the installer. Regardless of the local laws in your area, it’s always a good idea to hire a licensed plumber or installer. These pros will install your system properly and have the experience to size the system appropriately. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to check your installer’s license status.
