What Our Customers Say
Professional, knowledgeable, and efficient repair of softening system!
Kade was super professional. And helpful with my questions
No longer happy with the service. Expensive up front, warranty isn't worth anything so keep that in mind. Got a "Cooper" on the phone today. He was the worst, condescending, rude, short, everything. Costly option to improve your water. Buy the same or similar products and have a plumber of your choice install it will save you money on the front end. Anything "CGC" offers isn't real or what they represent it as.
Rene did a great job changing our whole house filter on our water softener. Fast and efficient!
Great company! Service was top notch!
Very accommodating with my busy schedule and our technician Nick was very professional. He installed our water softener but before doing so he noticed unit was a bit damaged, he got us a new one. Highly recommend.
I feel good about the anode rod. I have 7.00 mgl of Iron and it's been difficult. But Joe continues to help and go beyond.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to questions we hear regularly:
Which signs indicate I should test my water?
Consider professional testing if you experience any of these issues:
- Strange tastes or smells when you drink from the tap
- Visible particles or cloudiness in your water
- Laundry that feels rough or looks dingy even when clean
- Frequent plumbing repairs due to corrosion or buildup
- Family members experiencing unexplained skin irritation or digestive issues
How do softeners work differently from filters?
These systems address separate concerns. Softeners specifically target hardness minerals through ion exchange. They replace calcium and magnesium with sodium, helping prevent scale buildup that clogs pipes and coats heating elements.
Filters physically remove or chemically reduce contaminants, including sediment, chlorine, volatile organic compounds and heavy metals. Your test results determine whether one system can solve your concerns or if you need both for the best water quality.
What happens during routine water heater service?
Our maintenance visits include several important steps:
- Visual inspection of the tank exterior and connections for signs of wear or leaking
- Testing of temperature and pressure relief valves to ensure proper operation
- Flushing of sediment buildup that reduces heating efficiency and causes premature failure
- Verification that all electrical or gas components function safely and correctly
Regular servicing typically extends equipment longevity while reducing the chance of breakdowns.
