Water Softener Installation · Pella, Iowa

Water Softener Installation in Pella, Iowa

Most of Pella runs hard water, and hard water quietly costs money. It scales the bottom of a water heater until the burner works through a crust, furs up faucet aerators and shower heads, leaves spots on everything out of the dishwasher, and puts more soap and detergent through the house than you need.

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 Pella 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 Pella homeowners about a battery backup, because an unbacked pump and a storm outage is how basements flood here.

Pella customers on our water softener installation work

★★★★★

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.

Ines Q. · Pella, IA

★★★★★

New disposal and a dishwasher connection that the last installer had done wrong. Fixed both, and pointed out the wrong one rather than quietly leaving it.

Simone V. · Knoxville, IA

★★★★★

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 Pella: common questions

How hard is the water in Pella?

Much of Iowa sits in the moderately-to-very hard range, and it varies by source even within a county. We test at your Pella 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 Pella 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 Marion County can carry iron and sulphur that a plain softener will not handle well, so the test comes first.

Can you tell me what is wrong over the phone?

Often we can narrow it down, and sometimes we can tell you it is something you can fix yourself in five minutes. We would rather do that than send a truck you did not need.
