Water Softener System Installation

The Ultimate Solution
for Hard Water

Hard water can cause many problems in your home, from leaving scale deposits inside your water heater to reducing the cleaning power of your soap. The calcium and magnesium minerals in hard water can shorten the lifespan of your appliances, increase energy bills and leave your skin feeling dry after every shower. To address these challenges, CGC Home Services installs high-quality Kinetico® water softeners that eliminate hard water issues and protect your home’s plumbing.

What Our Customers Say

Very friendly and efficient! Answered all my questions! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸

Kade came out because our water pressure was low and water was a little hard. He fixed everything up and since I had had service recently, there was no charge. CGC is so great to work with. They are so nice. I highly recommend.

He kept me apprised of his ETA, was friendly and worked quickly & efficiently.

⭐ 1/5 — If zero stars were an option, I would give zero. I am writing this review after receiving no response or follow-up from CGC Water Treatment regarding several serious, unresolved issues. System failure: Our water treatment system experienced a major failure within the first year. Misleading product information: At installation, I specifically asked whether I could continue using standard filters and was told by the installer that I could. I later discovered that the system requires expensive proprietary filters. These filters were also presented as reusable/washable, but I found them extremely difficult and time-consuming to clean. Billing issue: A $50 coupon I presented when purchasing filters was never applied to my balance. Despite multiple emails detailing these issues, CGC has provided absolutely no support, response, or attempt to resolve the situation. Due to their complete lack of communication, I am now moving forward with formal complaints to the Better Business Bureau and the Michigan Attorney General's Office. I strongly advise others to look elsewhere for their water treatment needs.

Came out right away and did a good job.

Jason is outstanding.

We called this company to replace the expansion tank on our well-pump system. The technician insisted they would install only a fiberglass tank. Eventually, they agreed to install a steel tank if we purchased it ourselves—which we did, for about half the price. The tank is located in a laundry room, not a basement or wet environment. The installation was completed on Friday and cost just shy of $1,400. I was out of town and unable to handle the work myself, so we reluctantly accepted the price. By Saturday, just 24 hours after the Friday close of business, one of the newly connected pipes burst, spraying pressurized water inside the house. Thankfully, we shut off the water within minutes. The company advertises emergency service on its website, so I called immediately. An AI voice collected my information and promised someone would be in touch. Four calls and almost 14 hours later, we never heard from an actual person but we were able to book an appointment on the website for Monday. At first, the earliest we could book was Wednesday, but we managed to negotiate our “emergency” down to only two days without water. Apparently, their emergency service consists of an AI answering the phone and offering emotional support while your house floods. We ultimately found another company that came out and repaired the burst pipe the same day. That was fortunate, because waiting until Monday, or Wednesday, without running water was not especially appealing. Oddly enough, the technician showed a highly corroded piece of steel pipe thread into a brittle and cracked pvc connection at the exact connection point to the tank. I guess that inspecting the connecting pipe was a little much. From the insistence on the more expensive tank, to the nearly $1,400 installation, to the pipe failing the next day, to the nonexistent weekend emergency response, this experience was unacceptable from start to finish. I would not recommend this company to anyone. One star, only because Google has not yet introduced negative numbers. Please, for the love of all things Holy, do not use this company. They basically took a donation of over a $1000 and made our plumbing issue worse.

Very professional and informative.

Ronnie was courteous, knowledgeable to recheck repairs on Thursday last wk

Frequently Asked Questions

We are here to help!

Check our frequently asked questions – For Your Plumbing and Water Treatment Needs

How Much Salt Does a Water Softener Use?

While salt consumption depends on water hardness and daily usage, most homes use 40 to 80 pounds per month. Kinetico systems use metered regeneration, reducing salt waste compared to timer-based softeners.

Water softeners remove calcium and magnesium but add minimal sodium during the exchange process. Most people don’t notice any taste difference, though you can pair a softener with a reverse osmosis system if you prefer sodium-free drinking water.
