"Keith, from Kleen Water, has done several jobs for me relating to issues with my well. His expertise is unmatched. Anyone who can put up with me is great :). Prices are reasonable, and he is always on site the day I call to assess the issue. The well issues have been a huge stressor for me, he always makes the process less stressful. His professionalism and knowledge is unmatched. I will recommend Kleen Water to all my rural neighbors."

"I had an issue with the initial technician, so I called and asked to speak to a services manager. The manager promptly returned my call, and arranged for another technician to come to my house. The second technician ("handlebar Chuck) was awesome! The customer services was EXCELLENT!!! He patiently listened to my concerns, answered all of my questions and provided me accurate information re: the cost of repair vs. replacement. I decided to replace the water heater and, even though it very late in the day, Chuck was able to install the new water heater that evening."

"It started with a Home Depot add. They advertised installation at Home Depot so I went home and got on Angie's list to check their reviews. Everything that I reviewed was excellent so I called to set up the appointment. They came out and gave me an estimate and scheduled a date for the install. They were mostly on time with everything they did. When I say mostly they missed the mark by about 2 hours. In the grand scheme of things that was not a big deal. They were able to set it up and have it up and running in 1 day. (although they were there until 9pm at night working on it.) After a few days I noticed that I had water leaking from the drain pan. I called them and they set up an appointment for 2 days later. When the guy finally showed up he had no equipment with him not even a flashlight. He looked it over and told me that he needed to make a phone call and would be right back in. After 15 minutes or so he came back in and told me that he would be back tomorrow with some tools to fix the problem. He told me that they would have to reseal the lower unit ( I have a downdraft system). He told me to continue using it as necessary. The next day he did come back and reseal the unit. For a few days the problem was gone. I did notice though that the house was not getting cool and I could hear the outside unit running even when the inside unit was shut off. The water was starting to leak again so I called them back. They came out later that week because I had to go out of town on business and wanted to be there to see what was going on. When they got there they spent an hour or so diagnosing the issue. What they found was a wiring issue inside the unit. It was causing the compressor to run all of the time and freezing up the inside unit. This is what was causing the leak and the lack of really cool air. After that was fixed I waited a few days to make sure nothing else was going to go wrong before I put the washer/dryer and dishwasher back in place. This is where I ran into another problem. When they installed the new unit they didn't run the copper line exactly where the old ones had been. This made it so that I could not fit everything back where it was. I had to call them again and they came back out to see what the problem was. Once I explained it to them and showed them the issue they were glad to redo it for me. They scheduled a date and came back out to repair the issue. I was not home but my wife and son were. Not only did they fix the copper lines but the moved the washer/dryer and dishwasher back into place and hooked everything up. I know it sounds like a lot of issues but I have to say that Logan Services did exactly what they said they would do. I live in an old house and I am used to things not going as planned. I would highly recommend them for any repairs. They people were very courteous and considerate. The reason I waited so long to post a review is I wanted to make sure that the furnace worked as well and everything is as good as gold. I have recommended them to my neighbors and I will use them in the future. Great company and great people.

"Their work was good but greatly overpriced; $825.00 to scope the main drain and clean it with a pressurized water hose. 50 minutes of work for a very easy straightforward drain cleanout. Unfortunately, I was at a hard place and had to get it done that day. So, I went with them. Now you know their price and can think twice before calling them."

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.
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.
It’s possible to install a water softener yourself, but we don’t recommend it. Water softeners require working with copper pipes and electrical wiring, neither are suitable tasks for most DIYers. Plus, working with water and electricity together is dangerous and could pose a risk to your safety. Water softeners also need to be calibrated so that they don’t make your water too soft, as soft water poses just as many risks as hard water. Overall, it’s well worth hiring a local water softener installer to place your water softener system.
The cost to install a water softener system is $1,500 on average, ranging between $200 and $6,000. The labor for water softener work typically costs between $150 and $1,000, so you can add that to your equipment costs to get an accurate total. Your price will depend on many factors, including the following:
System capacity
Home size
Water hardness levels
Type of water softener
Presence of electricity in the installation area
Local permit costs
Your water softener size is based on your total household water consumption. In most cases, you can assume the average household member will use around 75 gallons per day. Multiply that by the number of people in your home, then multiply by 10 (for the typical grains per gallon). You’ll get a number in grains that should help roughly size your water softener. However, it’s best to hire a professional to install your system and use more exact numbers, like your exact average water consumption per day and starting water hardness.
