I live in College Park, and I knew that my water (municipal water) was leaving gross scale on our…read morebathroom fixtures and was therefore hard water. I also noticed that our water smelled very heavily of chlorine. I wanted to hire a company to soften our water and install a reverse osmosis drinking water system, but I honestly didn't know where to start. Something like 20 years ago in a different state we had purchased a Culligan water softener system, so I started my quest to look into water softener companies by calling Culligan. I am a member of Costco, so I also called Costco's water treatment folks, who happen to be Carroll Water in my area (who sell EcoWater systems). Both the Culligan and the Carroll Water systems seemed nearly identical; both use electricity, have electric timers for their salt water washes that you have to pre-set and worry about re-setting if the electricity goes out, are rather large systems, etc. One was a bit more expensive than the other (it actually annoyed me to no end that EcoWater/Carroll Water/Costco have some kind of buy-a-water-system-get-a-HUGE-Costco-gift-card thing going on...just seems way too gimmicky). My father, an engineer with tons of patents, lives in another state and had purchased a Kinetico water softener system and loved it. He told me I really needed to try to find a Kinetico dealer in my area so I could take a look at them, also. So I found Mermaid Water. I was impressed that their system didn't use electricity and that the salt water backwash system kicked in because of usage and not because of electric programming. To me, this seemed much more efficient than having a system that just always backwashed on Sundays at 3 am or whatever. The Mermaid Water representative who came to my house initially (Ed Owens) was also very flexible about the installation process - far FAR more than the Culligan or Carroll Water folks. I also LOVED that the Kinetico system was so much smaller and had such a smaller footprint than the Culligan or EcoWater systems, for we were limited on space. Even though Kinetico/Mermaid was a bit more expensive than Culligan and Carroll Water, I chose them. I'm very glad I did, but I didn't really understand why until after I had the installation team come in with our new equipment. The Kinetico installation team was absolutely amazing. Truly. Brad King, the son of the owner, did the install, and he is absolutely a master plumber. No one could have done a better job. He came into my house, created phenomenal ways to get the job done while minimizing the footprint of the machines and maximizing the benefit to my house - I am so grateful to him. And as he did the install, I asked him a thousand questions and he was SO patient and answered them all. And it was during this time that I became much more educated about the equipment and so grateful that I had chosen to purchase it rather than anything else. For example, I watched while Brad set the clockwork discs/gears that tick down to when the softener enters a backwash cycle. Basically what happens is that as you use water, the machine slowly ticks down via a small clocklike gear until it's time to start a backwash cycle. Then one part of the machine backwashes while the other is still filtering your water. The cool thing is that the Kinetico equipment actually backwashes itself with treated water (the others don't), which lengthens the life of your equipment. And since only one side of the water softener (there are two sides - basically two water softener units that sit side by side) regenerates/backwashes at a time, the other side is always still filtering your water. Whereas with Culligan or EcoWater, their machines don't do this - the whole setup backwashes all at one time, leaving untreated water coming into your house. Also, because usage is measured via a mechanical clockwork gear and not an electrical panel in the Kinetico systems, there are less electrical parts that can fail in the future, and you don't need an electrical outlet nearby to plug the machines into (which made me happy - I didn't have to get an electrician out to run wiring for a new plug). The Kinetico system typically backwashes more frequently than the other systems, since it backwashes based on usage, leaving me to surmise that you could absolutely be put in a position with units that only do this based on timers where your system is gunky and needs to backwash but hasn't yet done so because the timer hasn't told it to. And the Kinetico system uses far, FAR less salt during backwashes, thus FAR less salt overall. I would much rather have equipment that backwashes when it knows it needs to based on its own usage than a system that backwashes once a week based on a timer. Their reverse osmosis system is also stellar; it has powerful water pressure - much better than other RO systems. We are THRILLED with our Kinetico equipment and THRILLED with Mermaid Water! The best brand of equipment out there.

The next company did a 23 minute "presentation" and quoted me double the price of VA Environmental Resources.

I was told the water may be off for 4 hours, but it was only off for 2. The gentlemen who showed up for the install were on time, efficient, and cleaned up after themselves. Joshua returned a week later to conduct a walk-through with me and show me how the machine worked and encouraged me to use the 24-hour phone number if anything happened and I needed them. I no longer have to use bottled water to fill my dogs' bowls, my skin feels better out of the shower, and I'm already using significantly less soap than before.

I removed the old one, and had the new one unpacked and all ready to go, I just needed the technician to install it. Before getting here I told the tech he would only have 15 minutes to do the install as I had an appt. that I had to get to. He assured me he thought he could do it. The new one was the same manufacturer, so it was a simple case of pretty much twisting the new one in. He did use some putty and replaced a small PVC pipe which he didn't really need to. Anyway, he did the install within 15-20 minutes. He gave me the estimate, which I thought was rather high, but with the sink torn up I was in no position to stop everything and try to get another plumber out and to see what everyone else was charging. He did give me a $75 discount because I had done some of the work. The total for 15-20 minutes was originally $437-$75=$362.00. I think this is an outrageous amount to charge, it was an easy install. I sent an email to the owner, and of course go no response. So, I called and spoke to the service manager. His reasoning was $437 was expensive, but it covers tech training, vehicles, insurance, office expenses etc. I have no problem with a business making a profit but this is an exorbitant amount to charge for 15-20 minutes of work. Apparently, they have Flat Fees for jobs, but won't give even a hint as to what these are over the phone, so you are in the dark until they arrive at your home, and in an emergency you certainly aren't going to send the tech away. So, while the tech was very nice, and apparently did a fine job this place is very, very expensive.
