"It went great. New home with well. Needed added "omph" in our water pressure so Steve Martin came out did water samples and discussed options. We opted for both a water pump add on and water softening system. We are thrilled with the increase in water pressure for showering/bathing. I really like the softened water, my hair is much easier to style and laundry is soft and smells great. I use less detergent and much less fabric sooner. My husband likes the increased water pressure for the lawn sprinkling and when using a hose to pressure wash or water our outdoor plants. We highly recommend Kinetico as the the install service guys we're terrific! Lastly Steve came back out and did repeat water samples and they all with within normal range with the newly added softening system."

Stonewall Home Repair started in 2009 3 years after my father retired and sold his company. Being in the business for 15 years and growing up around the trades, I have a unique view. I am a college graduate with associates in computer science and a certification in Plumbing from Ashworth College. I am a small company and believe that your values are your most important commodity. Therefore offering you the best service at just the right price for any budget. In doing so, my rates are low in comparison to bigger companies because simply put, I don't have the overhead. Im in it to provide a great service and self satisfaction knowing that you, my customers and friends are happy and that is my reward. My family will tell you first hand that when it comes to my work, it has to be perfected each and every time and if its not, then thats on me. I do run a 24 hr emergency call and that will run you $85 minimum. I do contract pricing but also hourly as well. Depending on the job, if I need additional help I will run up to 2 employees, however its mostly myself, this is another reason my rates are most reasonable. Typically I require upon contract 1/2 the total bill up front and the remaining balance upon completion. I offer free estimates, $25 Service Fees, 100% satisfaction and a friend for life. So from my home to yours, god bless and I will hopefully hear from you soon. Thank You

"He is real sweat until something doesnt go his way. I felt so uncomfortable. He just jerry rigged my door moving the latch over and it still would close. He then stood there and said I owe him $125. I felt so uncomfortable and threatened that I just wrote him a check. He then messaged me on messanger saying he was glad that he was able to fix my door and I just said thanks for fixing my door I am glad you could do it because I felt so threatened by him. I called him to let him know that the door was not fixed and maybe we could work it out for some of my money back and he screamed at me. I wasnt allowed to get a word in. He just kept screaming at me. I was trying to be gracious. I said you couldnt fix my door but you made a trip to my house so maybe we could work it out and he just kept screaming at me saying Dont you call this number again! I know customers like you!"

FAQs for water treatment & purification system installation and replacement projects in Amherst, VA

Water softeners consist of three main components: a mineral tank, a brine tank, and a control valve. In some smaller units, the mineral tank and brine tank are combined into one cabinet.

Professionals install whole-home systems at the point of entry of the main water line. Smaller units are installed under sinks or near a washer—these units only soften the water for that fixture, not the entire home.

  • Mineral Tank: Hard water passes into the mineral tank through resin beads, and an ion exchange occurs. Magnesium and calcium ions are exchanged for sodium or potassium ions from the brine tank.

  • Brine Tank: The brine tank contains sodium or potassium to recharge the resin.

  • Control Valve: The control valve determines when to clean the resin beads.

Choosing between a salt-based or potassium-based water softener depends on your priorities. Salt-based systems effectively remove hard-water minerals, regenerate efficiently, and are cost-effective. However, they may not be ideal for individuals on low-sodium diets. Potassium-based systems neutralize minerals without removing them and regenerate more frequently. They are more expensive but offer a healthier and more environmentally friendly option. If sodium levels are a concern and cost isn't a major factor, a potassium system may be the better choice.

To calculate your water softener's capacity, determine your grains per gallon (GPG) number by:

  • Multiplying the number of people in your home by 90. The average number of gallons used per person for washing, drinking, and cooking ranges from 80 to 100 gallons per day.

  • Multiplying that result by the hardness of your water. The average grains per gallon in the United States is 10 but can range from 0 to 17. You can find your GPG number by purchasing an at-home water testing kit.

Installing a water softener takes between two to four hours on average. The exact duration depends on the complexity of the unit and whether additional plumbing or electrical work is required. If modifications to existing pipes are necessary, installation may take longer. Preparing the installation area by clearing any obstructions can help streamline the process.

Water softeners can last up to 25 years with proper maintenance and care. The lifespan depends on the type and quality of the unit you choose. Single-tank electric water softeners may last around 12 years, while higher-quality models tend to last longer. Regular maintenance, such as routine inspections and timely replacement of salts or potassium, helps extend the life of your system. Most water softeners require minimal repairs over their lifespan.
