Trust Our Journeyman Plumbers for Water Softer Installation in Calgary

A water softener is a filtration device designed to extract high concentrations of calcium and magnesium, which make water hard. As water passes through the water softener, the system removes these hard water contents and softened water leaves the units into the house’s plumbing system.

Due to their structure, calcium and magnesium can bond easily with other types of metals and can result in chalky residue in the shower head and the plumbing system. Hard water will over time cause hardened mineral deposits that will build up and clog or corrode pipes, which will undoubtedly result in serious plumbing problems.

Reduced Energy Bill

Water Softener Installation Calgary -Reduced Energy Bills

Hard water is known to leave a chalky residue on everything that uses water in your home such as water heater, dishwasher, and coffee pot. The limescale deposited in these appliances will interfere with heat transmission, and they will use more energy than necessary, which will result in a costly energy bill. However, having a water softener on your home will prevent limescale deposit and your appliances will run efficiently. Your energy bill will reduce significantly when your appliances use soft water regularly.

Enhanced Durability of Appliances and Pipes

Water Softener Installation Calgary – Enhanced Durability of Piping and Appliances

Nothing is more wasteful than having to replace appliances before their expected lifespan due to inefficiency or damage. Water softener installation in your home will give you a consistent supply of soft water, which will prolong the lifespan of your appliances and pipes in your home. One of the effects of hard water is that the limescale deposit causes galvanic corrosion and reduces the durability of pipes.

Reduce Soap Usage

Water Softener Installation Calgary – Reduced Soap Usage

Hard water causes you to use more soap than necessary because it inhibits the lathering of Soaps and shampoo. With a water softener installed in your home, you will use 75% less soap and shampoo, which is significant savings on money in the long run.

Protects Quality of Fabrics

Water Softener Installation Calgary – Protects Fabrics

Soft water from the installed water softener is free from minerals that get trapped in fabrics and make the fabrics colors dull and stiff. Thus, soft water enhances the texture and color of your fabrics. As a result, the need for newer clothes reduces since your existing fabrics do not get damaged by the minerals present in hard water.

Promote Better Plant Life

Water Softener Installation Calgary – Better Plant Life

The presence of chlorine in water is one of the headaches of gardeners because the chemical is harmful to delicate plants. And to water plants with tap water, the water has to be allowed to sit in an open container for at least 30 minutes to let the chlorine drift out of the water. All these inconveniences will be taken care of when you install a water softener in your home. You can water your plants without hassles and straight from the tap.

Extends Lifespan of Sewer System

Water Softener Installation Calgary – Better Lifetime of Sewer Systems

The limescale that hard water leaves in the pipes build up to the point of reducing the diameter of pipes. This increases the water pressure and can result in the damage of the sewer system. Over time, the pipes will become weak and susceptible to bursting. This is not the case with water softener installation in your home.

Benefits the Environment

Water Softener Installation Calgary – Better for the Environment

The less energy your appliances use, the less the carbon footprint there would be because of the conservation of energy. This helps to preserve our planet more.

Problems with Not Having a Water Softener

The water softener installation helps to prevent a wide range of problems. However, when you do not have a water softener at home, here are some of the problems you are likely to have or experience.

  1. Soap Not Lathering

This is usually a significant challenge as your soap will have difficulties lathering due to the suppressible power of the minerals that the water picked up from the earth.

  1. Difficulty Rinsing Dishes

Another noticeable problem of hard water is that any item you washed with soap will not be easily cleaned when you rinse them. Using the water to wash your hair, it will take a lot of time before you would be able to rinse it perfectly. If there is no water softener installation in your home, you would always have chalky residue on your dish, glass, and more.

  1. Plumbing Problems

Hard water leaves hardened mineral deposits, which can build up in the plumbing system of your home. Over time, the accumulated sediment can clog or corrode the pipes and cause serious problems.

  1. Increase in Energy Bill

The deposits from hard water can be found on the water heaters and boilers, and this will cause the appliances to be less efficient and use more power to run. This will result in an expensive energy bill.

We had a leak from one of the bathrooms into our living room below. Jordan was prompt, professional, and thorough in completing the repair. We were very thankful and impressed with the whole process and price was reasonable. It's as if there was no issue at all.
Scott Blenkhorne
The service provided by Urban Piping was outstanding. When my hot water heater failed during the recent awful cold snap they replaced it and provided "above and beyond" service to ensure all went well in that very cold weather. Graham and Jordan were knowledgable, efficient, prompt and diligent. I would recommend Urban Piping without hesitation.
Susan Lewis
I contacted Urban Piping via Homestars on New Year’s Day. I didn’t expect a response for a day or two after the holiday. I got a phone call that day and within two days my rusty water heater had been removed and a new one installed. The service was quick, efficient and effective. All my questions were answered politely and completely. This company clearly cares about their customers and the service they provide.
James Mills
Graham responded promptly late Friday to my plea for help for a new water heater and provided a a very reasonable quote and confirmation to replace it the very next business day (Monday)! Monday saw Jordan arrive just as promptly at the appointed time. He was courteous, efficient and performed a very clean replacement installation of the new one. Very happy!
Rick Nash
Just had Urban Piping out to install 2 x 50 gal hot water tanks. Jordan did a great job, was super helpful and answered all my questions friendly and professorial. It's not the first time I have used them and it wont be the last. Thank you!
Paul Hannania
We have called Urban Piping on two occasions for our rental property. The first time we had a leaky water tank which they quickly diagnosed and replaced. Their price was very reasonable and their service was prompt. The second time we had water coming into the basement. I called them and they came over the next day. They were able to run their equipment to clear debris out of the pipes going to the street and the problem was solved. It took about an hour, the temperatures were -13C so I was worried that a pipe had burst. They let me know how much they were going to charge so there were no surprises. We were very happy with the service and price. Thanks Jordan!
Mariane Gill
I have to say Urban Piping were careful considerate and their plumber was pleasant, courteous, and did a professional job.I thought a $100 service call fee was reasonable
Ron Theaker
Really happy with Urban Piping. Our hot water tank broke down on a Sunday, and I had a call back within 20 minutes. I really appreciate their recommendations and options for me to save some cost. They were out the next day and the install was quick and clean. Great experience.
Kelsey Kittleson
First rate service for a a somewhat tricky drain/sink replacement. Jordan was competent, hardworking and pleasant, and he charged a reasonable rate.

These guys were exceptional. Had a hot water tank leak Friday in the middle of the night. They were there right away with a tank replacement. Jordan was professional, clean and quick. The owner Graham was incredible and walked me through the whole process. Could not be happier. Will recommend over and over again.
Brett Robidoux

Alan Roberts
Graham from Urban Piping arrived on time and had everything ready to go. He gave me a quote for $700 to do a Garburator in my kitchen. He inspected my existing plumbing under my sink and then explained to me the process and immediately went to work. Not only does the garburator work great but now the plumbing under my sink is very clean and organized. The invoice on my bill was BELOW the quote. I didn't think that was possible but I was extremely happy. I HIGHLY recommend having the guys at Urban Piping as they did the job right the first time. I will definitely be using them again when I do my basement renovation!
Zak Richardson
Graham does an amazing job very well done. Love these guys

Graham and Jordan do an amazing job! so efficient and clean i was truly impressed with the level of professionalism and quality done from urban piping
Abe Akl
Urban Piping did an outstanding job replacing the poly-b throughout our house, replacing toilets and flushing drain lines. We were impressed with the customer service, prompt response time and attention to detail through the estimate process. Going through the findings, I learned a lot about the house because Graham took the time to show and explain things to me, even well outside the scope of work. These guys do the entire job, including the refinishing work to walls, ceilings, etc so my job was easier, I didn't have to research and hire separate contractors for anything! Graham also helped us to make smart decisions about specific pieces of work to stay in budget.When it came time for work to begin, he walked me through what to expect through to completion. Attention to detail is beyond thorough with this crew! Everything turned out exactly as we expected and on budget, and the quality of the finishing work is so good that my family can't tell where the walls were opened up! They ran air scrubbers and took great care to protect the house from damage or traveling mess; it was cleaner when they left than it was before they started! Thanks for taking such great care of us through this project, guys!
Sarah Trerise
Jordan from Urban Piping came over to do a complete drain cleaning service to our home because we were having problems with the bathroom sinks and drains draining slowly. He was in time, very friendly and cleaned every drain in our home. He also found that there was a problem with a seal in our master bathtub and fixed that for us too. Quick, easy, and great price on the service. Good job guys.
Corey Hayes
Very good on the plumbing and pipe replacement side of things. Ok on the drywall work.
Norman Wong
Graham and his team were fantastic! His calm demeanor coupled with his excellent service made our Poly-B replacement as stress-free as possible. The attention to detail is unsurpassed. He reorganized our shut-off valves to make them more accessible, brought the plumbing up to the current code, totally protected our home and furnishings, and left the home in almost spotless condition. Having the big air scrubbers constantly on to remove the dust, the plastic walls cordoning off areas and the great clean-up crew made coming back home a great experience. On time and on budget too!!! I'd recommend Urban Piping to everyone for Poly-B remediation.
