Not sure I've worked with a better service company than Huemann. Honest, reliable, trustworthy. They answer the phone 24 hours, and never turn away an opportunity to help. Special company. Elite people. There is no one I'd rather work with. I have unconditional trust in Huemann, in any and all scenarios. read more

I used them for my personally owned home and had good results, but when I called them for one of the homes that I property manage the owner showed his true colors. I spoke to the woman at the front desk who was lovely, and she transferred me to the owner. I am dealing with a very complicated mold problem in the brine tank/other problem that is making the water unsafe for the tenant. He told me he "didn't want to deal with that bullsh!t" and that I should "get off my lazy ass and go clean it". Never will I ever be using this company again!!!!!!! Do not give this man your money. Maybe he was having a bad day but he lost my business..... read more

I relied on what these people told me about Kinetico water softener systems 2 years ago and have had nothing but problems, expensive service calls and equipment breakdowns. I am on well water and prefilter it down to 5 microns (Huemann recommended 50 microns which would foul in about a day)and it still fouls the mechanism that runs the system. The internals are far too small to pass even 5 micron, dissolved solids. It makes one wonder what it was designed for. All wells have dissolved solids! The idea is great, the design sucks. Not at all practical This system is not good for well water and the manufacturer does not stand behind it nor do they answer technical questions. Lots of money for this boat anchor of a system. Do yourself a favor, go to Costco or somewhere and buy a much less expensive and more reliable "cheap" system. Just like an Audi is elegantly engineered, it won't cross the dessert but a cheap Jeep will. Total crap and disgusted. read more

Update! Received phone calls and got some suggestions. Water seems better and I'm pleased with the service/results!

Long time customer. Have had excellent service in the past. Submitted query .... but must not have been READ! Requested info on a cartridge to remove iron from outside water going to a small greenhouse. Answered they'd come to my house and do a full evaluation of our water needs! Very disappointing mis-reading of my query. Not "Huermann -like" read more

We had Eric come to talk to us about getting a water softener. He checked out what our needs were, what our basement situation was and then tested our water. Eric educated us on water softeners and also Reverse Osmosis systems. He suggested a system based upon our need. I received his quote later that same day. He was very easy to reach when we had a few additional questions before our decision. We decided to install both systems and plan to rent for a couple of months and then purchase the systems. Our installation is set up for early the week following when he was here. Our experience with him was very good! We want to share what a fantastic experience we had with our installation with Jake and Jason. They were so kind, explained everything with great detail, took care to be very respectful and tidy with our home. They worked great together and were efficient. I ended up switching our RO faucet to a more aesthetic model. Jake did a great job showing me options for that. The workmanship and areas affected with the new equipment look great and very non-invasive to our space. During the visit Jake explained how everything worked, where the valves were and how often we may have to change filters, etc. My husband and I learned a lot and look forward to working with your company. It has been less than a week since the installation and we are already impressed with our water quality and how easy the transition has been. Please congratulate both of them on a job well done! read more

Had a gentleman out to give me an estimate and couldn't be more impressed! not at all pushy to sell me anything. extremely knowledgeable and honest. i could not be more impressed. great family owned business! read more

On 12/31/24, had media replacement in Iron Filter. Huemann technician , Matthew did a fantastic job, and very cordial, engaging, and knowledgeable. This was my first experience with Huemann, and I will definitely use in the future, and recommend to friends and neighbors . The communications process from quote to completion of project was impressive. GREAT JOB !!! read more

Outstanding, reliable, professional...... Other companies suggested we replace our system.... This company fixed it for $150... and our water is better than ever read more

Excellent service at a time when I needed it the most. I had just put my house on the market after 45 years of living in it and I discovered a leak coming from the refrigerator. Matt was familiar with our system and had serviced us in. the past came over promptly and fixed the problem and made system checks to assure optimal performance.. read more

Amazing service and I highly recommend them! They helped me purchase a new water softeners system.Easy install.

I called for service on my salt reservoir. It was a mess with salt all down the outside. The tech showed up and took a look and said it needed to be replaced. The bottom half of the container was like a salt slushy. He said he had a used reservoir with him and I could have it for $50. I was impressed that he took the initiative to have one on hand and not try to sell me a new one. I've used Huemann since I moved here a couple of years ago. They're honest, respectful and show up! read more

I have been using this company for years for salt delivery. I finally had them give me a quote to replace my original water softener which they had installed in the house back in 1986 (hows that for quality) and add a sulfur guard system for my well water. I asked about a a system to treat for iron bacteria but their sales rep checked and felt it wasn't needed and explained why. No pressure to make an additional sales. When they came out to install the equipment the quality of their work was outstanding. The company goes above and beyond and really supports their customers. Highly recommended. read more

My water system was originally installed by Huemann, but I was referred to another place who came out and told me I need a new system for $3500+, I didn't think that sounded right and then I saw the name on the system. (Should have looked at it first). I called them for a second opinion, they came out and service and repair on it and said it would last a lifetime and charged me $211. I highly recommend this honest company. There are a lot of scammers out there, this company is not one of them, what a great guy, he even changed a light bulb in my freezer. So nice, going the extra mile. read more

Very poor customer service unless you have there system they will charge to test your water, hmm maybe I would get a new system from your company but you'll never know because charging me $20.00 to test my water doesn't make me want to buy your bought sounds Iike you'll nickel and dime me if I did get a system through you. Yay thanks for the help! Plumber even recommended you sad. read more

I have to start out by saying that I have never used this company for their water conditioning service, BUT if their customer service is anything like their neighborhood friendliness, they must be top notch! I was at the park with my son, and he got his remote control plane stuck in a tree. The service man saw us from the road as we were throwing sticks at the tree and trying to shake the tree to knock the plane down. He quickly turned into the parking lot and grabbed a pole from his truck. When the pole turned out to be too short, he decided to try extending a tape measure. IT WORKED!!! We are so thankful that he was willing to take time out of his day to stop and help us. THANK YOU!!! read more

I recently moved into a home in McHenry and called Huemann Water Conditioning for service on the existing system. Mike came out and recommended updating our old system since it was out of date and recommend we install a water softener. Mike explained the entire process since I was new to the type of system in the house. Mike and his crew came out and installed the system in less time than originally estimated. I am glad I found Huemann Water Conditioning and will definitely use them again when it is needed in the future. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a good company. read more

Fair priced and family owned. Joe is will treat you with respect as he has done with me. I've been a customer for 2 1/2 years since I've owned my house. read more

I thought my water softener was broken so I called Culligan to come out to my house and take a look at my unit. Culligan charged me to come out to my house and after taking a brief look at my softener told me I needed to buy a new one. They quoted me $1500 for a new softener and charged me $150 for the service call. I then called Angel Water in Barrington, they too told me I needed a new softener and quoted me $1300. I finally called Huemann Water. A service tech came out to my house, took a look at my softener, and for less than $100 in parts fixed my softener and brought it back to life! The team over at Huemann Water are a genuine group of professionals who know their trade well. They don't try to sell you new and expensive equipment if you don't need it, rather they present you with all the options you have available and let you make the choice. The owner Joe Huemann has even personally come out to my house to calibrate my water softener when I thought it wasn't working right. Overall, you won't find a better group of pros, that go far beyond what you could ever expect, to deliver excellent service at excellent prices. read more

We have been with them for a few years. Very professional, helpful, and polite employees. Great service in general. We are happy with the equipment and prices as well. read more

We've had the same Huemann softener since we moved in 14 yrs ago. I've needed to call twice, once after we moved with questions on how this works and then tonight because of user error. Both times it was clear I was dealing with a family business. Both times they went above and beyond. Tonight Joe took time away from his family to come and help us out. He fixed my problem, shook my hand and left. What a wonderful and honest local business man. I could not be more grateful. read more

The worst water condition system I ever owned, rust in every sink and toilet. I called them and they never got anything solved. This is just terrible for the amount I paid, I have been taken advantaged of, I am 79 on a fixed income. read more

A family run business that provides great service and great products. They are going to be my only call for any well / plumbing needs.

Amazing service. Sadly I can't recommend Huemann any higher than 5 stars because they deserve it. You cannot expect this but their response time was about 30 minutes! Steve came out and fixed an issue I had w/ my softener. I noticed I still had an issue so I called back and ended up speaking to Joe (the owner) on a Saturday. He recommended a few things to try that did not help. They sent Matt on Monday who determined that I'm an idiot and I had a water filter somehow causing the issue. We bypassed as a test and sure enough problem solved. The cost for the return trip due to my incompetence? $0. I surely miss the small independently owned/operated service businesses of the past. Joe shows us how it used to be when people had pride in their work/businesses. Thanks Joe, Mike, Steve and Matt! read more

We recently moved out to the country (Barrington from Chicago) and bought a house with a well. After suffering with smelly, discolored and bad tasting water, we called Huemann Water to see what they could do. Long story short...we have delicious, wonderful water for a reasonable price. Chris came out, assessed our needs and got us set up with a great system! He was incredibly nice, helpful and trustworthy. Within a few a days a tech came out and did the installation. The tech was also very nice and professional. He even helped catch my dog in the snow when he ran out the door! Superior service! Superior products! read more

Excellent customer service. Excellent install techs. Excellent product. My in-laws recommended Huemann and my wife and I could not be happier with our experience thus far. If you are in the market for a new water softener, whole home filter and reverse osmosis system then look no further than Huemann. read more

This company is wonderful! I manage a small company so I understand how important customer service can be. It's crucial. I called Huemann to schedule a time for them to come to my house to check out my current system. It was a busy time at work for me and couldn't be flexible with my schedule. Eric told me not to worry and to call him when I was on my way home. Eric came out to meet me and after conducting a water test, he thoroughly explained his products and made appropriate recommendations. Turns out, my system was working fine. No question, when it's time to replace my softener I will definitely contact Huemann. Eric was professional, patient, knowledgeable, and honest. Top notch service! read more

Recently had a Kinetico dechlorinator and water softener system installed in my home. The service and installation were all done in a highly professional manner. The Kinetico products are working extremely well and resolved our water issues. Would highly recommend Huemann Water for their products and service. read more

I called them on Sat morning because our well pump stopped working. He was very professional and courteous on the phone & on his way to be there in under 30 min. 20 minutes later we realized the connection to the pump was all corroded and that was the problem. We called him to let him know we solved the problem. He was already in my town and made the trip for nothing. He did not charge us anything for his time and was very understanding. If/when we have another issue we will definitely call them for service. THANKS!! read more

I moved into a house that was built in 1955 that had a well with a Kinetico Water Conditioning System in it. I was unfamiliar with wells and called Huemann Water Conditioning in the hope that I would be able to get some information in addition to an evaluation, as I knew the system was quite old and would probably need replacing. From the initial contact this company was exceptional to work with. The ladies who answered the phone and took my initial calls were Linda and Kim. They could not have been any friendlier, helpful and more professional. They took all my information and told me I would receive a call back shortly to discuss my needs. I received a call back within an hour and made an appointment to have someone come out and check out my system, explain the maintenance and talk to me about possibly replacing and updating the older system. A man named Josh came out within a few days, exactly as promised. He was very prompt, helpful, professional and took extra time to explain the well system as well as the Kinetico Water Conditioning System. He was very patient with my endless questions and concerns and was not at all pushy as far as trying to sell me any equipment. I decided that since my system was so old it was time to update it. Josh spent a great deal of time with me and I never felt rushed. At this time I also decided to add a reverse osmosis drinking water system to my home, as well as replacing a 22 year old hot water heater inside my home. Josh even took pictures in the well of my current Kinetico Water Conditioning System to make it easier to plan for the new installation and ensure that it was installed in the most efficient manner possible within the confined available space in my well. He went back to the company to meet and discuss the installation of the system. I soon received a follow-up call from Joe Huemann to discuss the system and work I wanted done. I also spoke with Kurt from the company and he explained more details and pricing for the entire job. It was obvious that they had put a great deal of thought and planning into this job to ensure it was done in the best manner possible. A date was scheduled and they came out and completed the work exactly as planned. They sent out 3 men, Reggie, Steve and Scott. All 3 of them were friendly and very helpful and really took the time to explain every aspect of the installation and made sure I understood everything they did. They completed the job and I felt very comfortable with their work and the price was very fair for the great amount of work that they completed. I cannot make enough positive comments about this company. They have been the best company that I have worked with in decades. They are an exceptional, company with old fashioned values such as honesty, integrity, and pride in their work which is difficult to find in many companies nowadays. I called the company several times with questions and concerns before they came out to complete the job and always received prompt call backs and they took the time to make sure I was comfortable and understood every step of the process. I have never worked with a company with such a quick response time regarding call backs and they always patiently answered all my questions. They were always on time and never late for any appointments and even called to confirm before they came out to my home. Their communication and punctuality was outstanding. You can't go wrong if you decide to use this unbelievable company as they are an exceptional, hard working, honest group of friendly people who really go "above and beyond" in every aspect of their jobs. This is how all companies should be! I highly recommend Huemann Water Conditioning as a top notch company and only wish their was a higher rating that I could give them besides and A+. read more

I have used Huemann Water Conditioning twice in the past few years. I can tell you they are the most honest business I've ever worked with. They will gladly service existing equipment without trying to sell you something newer and more expensive. They've even done trouble shooting over the phone. Joe is great to talk to and extremely professional. I will never consider using anyone else for my water conditioning needs. Ever. read more

The delivery service is the best and you cannot beat the price. Every one of their crews that have been out to deliver are super nice and courteous - they make needing salt for the system not such a huge ordeal. My husband especially appreciates them. read more

Josh set up our water softener system in April 2015. His analysis of the need, materials needed, and time the job would take was spot on. He used virtually all existing materials he could to create an efficient water treatment system. He even spent some time with me afterwards to teach me how the water softener works, even though I did not purchase the machine through Huemann. Cost was better than any other plumbers out there. They have a great history of serving the McHenry County area, and that continues to date. Highly recommend the company and Josh personally as a plumber. read more

Been with heumann since 1985-87 and have rented a system since then. Recently had issues with the system as it's from 2007. Called to have it serviced as the renters had rust stains accumulating. Everything went well until my aprox 32 yr contract was broken and had my rent on it jump up due to their repair costs. That is the point of renting a system is they do maintenance and repairs of their system. Not to mention wanted to sell me that 10 yrs old system for the cost of a new 2017 system at Home Depot. Was informed that they had to update the existing system and incurred repair costs and that I was responsible for it with increased rent charges. Told them to remove their equipment due to breaking their own contract. Very rudely was asked to come up with the contract as if their business was going to hide the fact they broke their own contract. Very disappointed customer won't be going back. read more
