"If you are ready to let go of plenty of money for work, then this is the place to call! The man that came out was courteous and polite and the work was good. Technician came out on a Saturday for weekend call and then had to return for a few hours on the following Monday. Total between 7-8 hours (included a trip to Raleigh from Creedmoor and back for a pump). We were charged an extra service charge on top of labor for the trip to get pump. The labor charge averaged out to a little more than $208 per hour. Company was called and bill was discussed. I was told that they do not charge by hour anymore, that they charge by the job and what work is done. (Replaced the pump, line and wire in well and tank). I was told that I would get a call back to discuss the bill, was called back the first time by the time that was stated, but asked could he call later that day when he had more time. There was never a call back. I know things are more expensive these days, but not this much!"

Arbor Plumbing & Backflow is a plumbing and irrigation company based out of Garner, N.C. Residential/Commercial new construction and renovations. We empower our staff with the tools, capability, authority and responsibility to do their jobs well!

"Beware of this company! I am a general contractor and have never seen a company run so poorly. I tried them out because of their great Google reviews, but unfortunately it did not work out and I had to fire them. I had to call multiple people multiple times to try scheduling work, they were not on time and just generally unprofessional. Obviously, I will not be using them again. Here is a direct quote from and email I received from my customer asking me to bring in another plumber: Some specific concerns include: Lack of Property Protection – Larry does not use shoe covers, floor coverings, or other protective measures. He also does not clean up before leaving. Kitchen Plumbing Rough-In – He left a significant mess in the kitchen that I had to clean myself when he roughed in the kitchen items. Work Under the House – Nails, wood scraps, and water were left behind. He also moved and failed to replace the plastic encapsulating my crawl space, and insulation was left out of place. Kitchen Work – His latest trip to the house, Larry rushed to gather materials to work in the kitchen, but did not complete the work, leaving the materials out. Powder Room Rough-In – He failed to protect my flooring and left debris in my cabinet, which was later moved to the garage. He also discarded scrap piping in my front planter. Wall Cut-Out – He rushed to leave without reinforcing the 2x4s, in the powder room requiring additional work after the flooring is complete. He was only at the house for an hour and had to depart since lives far away. I was expecting him to install items in the kitchen and rough in the bathroom. Nothing was done in the kitchen and minimal was done in the powder room. Tracking Debris – Drywall dust and wood shavings were tracked throughout the house, leaving me with over an hour of cleanup. Some trash was even left in my wife’s office. The mess he left in the bathroom was worse than the mess that you saw under the house. Damage to Cabinets – He nicked a new cabinet door and did not take care when placing the items to work in the kitchen. This happened and he did not do any work. This was just from his tools working near the cabinetry."

FAQs for water treatment & purification system installation and replacement projects in Smithfield, NC

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.
