Water softener install. They tested our water first rather than just selling a unit, and sized it accordingly. Fixtures have stayed clean since.

Water Softener Installation in Clear Lake, Iowa
We test hardness at your Clear Lake tap before recommending anything, because a softener sized off a guess either regenerates constantly or never keeps up. Then it gets installed with a proper bypass valve, an air gap on the drain, and the hardness dialled in to your actual reading.
Call (833) 435-9778 and describe what is happening. We will give you an arrival window before you hang up and a flat price before anyone starts work - the same price at 2am as at 2pm.

Spring thaw is when sump pumps get tested
A sump pump in Clear Lake sits idle for months and then has one important night. That is usually also the night the power flickers. We check the float, the check valve and the discharge line, and we talk to most Clear Lake homeowners about a battery backup, because an unbacked pump and a storm outage is how basements flood here.

No hot water on the coldest morning of the year. Thermocouple. Out and fixed within two hours of my call, and he showed me where the reset is for next time.

Our old cast iron stack was scaled almost shut. They jetted it and the difference was obvious immediately. Showed me before and after footage.

Water Softener Installation in Clear Lake: common questions
How hard is the water in Clear Lake?
Much of Iowa sits in the moderately-to-very hard range, and it varies by source even within a county. We test at your Clear Lake tap so the softener is sized on your number rather than a regional average.
Will a softener help my water heater last longer?
Yes, measurably. Scale is what builds on the bottom of a tank and makes it rumble and lose capacity. Softened water slows that down considerably, which is why we often fit a softener and a heater together.
How much salt will it use?
A correctly sized unit for a Clear Lake family typically goes through a bag or two a month. If yours is eating far more than that, it is usually sized wrong or set wrong - both fixable.
Do I need a softener if I am on a well?
Often yes, and sometimes you need iron filtration alongside it. Well water in Cerro Gordo County can carry iron and sulphur that a plain softener will not handle well, so the test comes first.
