Water Softener Installation

Do you often notice that your dishes and glassware have a white film or spots on them after washing? Perhaps you’ve noticed that your skin and hair feel itchy, dry, and dull after a shower. These are all indications that you have hard water at home. Indeed, homes in Ann Arbor often deal with hard water, or water that is full of minerals like calcium and magnesium.

While hard water is not harmful to consume, it can wreak havoc on your appliances and pipes, causing mineral buildup in water heaters, which leads to premature failure. Luckily, there is a solution: water softener installation from Benjamin Franklin Plumbing®. Our expert plumbers will ensure your home’s water is perfectly treated, giving you peace of mind about your plumbing.

How do water softening systems help?

Protect plumbing and appliances by removing hard minerals
Improve the taste of your drinking water
Encourage softer skin and hair after showering
Reduce limescale buildup and soapscum
Keep fixtures looking cleaner longer with white cast

Water softeners use salt as a treatment method, removing mineral agents that can cause buildup in your plumbing and dry out your skin. It’s imperative to regularly maintain your water softener with salt refills. Our plumbers can tell you everything you need to know about water softener installation and maintenance. Contact us today!

Reverse Osmosis Systems

Imagine the peace of mind you’ll enjoy with pure, filtered water right from your faucet, without the need for single-use water bottles or refilling filtered pitchers. With reverse osmosis systems from Benjamin Franklin Plumbing®, you can have just that! If you’re worried about contaminants in your home’s drinking water, RO systems filter down to the micron level, removing any impurity to improve the taste, appearance, and smell of your water.

What can reverse osmosis systems remove?

Dissolved minerals and solids
Organic compounds
Metals
Sediment and particulate matter
Pharmaceuticals
And more!

Reverse osmosis systems purify water by passing it through a semi-permeable membrane. Under pressure, the water molecules are separated from larger contaminants, and through different pre-filtering stages, you’re left with pure water that your whole Ann Arbor home can enjoy. Find out more from our plumbers about what contaminants might be lurking in your tap water.

Iron Filters

Are you tired of those stubborn brown stains in your tub or toilet? They’re likely the result of water with an excessive amount of iron. No matter how much you scrub, you just can’t seem to remove those stains. There’s a better way with Benjamin Franklin Plumbing®. You need iron filters for your home in Ann Arbor.

What are the benefits of installing iron filters?

Improved water quality
Eliminate rust stains
Extend appliance lifespan
Minimize corrosion and clogs in pipes
Reduced cleaning time

Iron filters work to remove dissolved iron in water by oxidizing it into an insoluble form and trapping the iron particles in the filter bed. Similar to a water softener, you’ll need to perform periodic maintenance on iron filters to ensure they continue to function optimally.

Our plumbers can answer any questions you have about water treatment solutions like iron filters, water softeners, and more, so you can keep your home’s plumbing running smoothly!

Corey Street

This is an exceptional team of technicians who consistently demonstrate professionalism, honesty, and trustworthiness. They take great pride in their work, and it truly shows in the quality of the service they provide.

Eric Norris

I wanted an estimate on installing a gas line to a gas range, previously had electric, and in a house with galvanized pipe. I must first say that I was ultra pleased with my first AI phone interaction to make an appointment! It was better than a real person. I could understand every word she said. The voice was polite, no attitude, asked all the right questions, nothing more or less. And in fact, I got a same day appointment! On to the estimate. Steve looked at everything I had. Explained what could and couldn't be done. Explained in detail how and what would be needed for my new gas line. Word of caution, this is not an inexpensive process. The parts are expensive. But Explained as to why that was the case. Felt great about what Steve would be doing and scheduled the work.

Rick Mccadden

Very professional, explained everything so I understood what he would do and why. He didn't try to oversell. He recommended a couple of things that would help, but no pressure. I don't normally do more than just a simple recommendation. In this case I would have to say I highly recommend them.

Jack Tillis

Jordan and Jon came out and got me squared away. Both techs were very knowledgeable and made an unpleasant experience pleasant. Thanks guys for getting us all fixed up and i will call you guys anytime I have an issue.

Eliza Taylor

Matthew was amazing! Our pump broke when we lost power, he came and repaired everything! He was super professional and knowledgeable. Very dependable and left no mess for us. Excited to use our washing machine and basement bathroom with no further worries. They also quoted less than others for our repair and explained the entire process. Thank you Matthew Tacia! I would recommend this plumber to anyone.

KERRY HONEYCUTT

Brian Rotolo, the plumber who installed our Flow Tech Water System, was very knowledgeable and answered our many questions. We are confident we made the right decision to go with Benjamin Franklin for our plumbing needs. We will absolutely continue to use their professional services, if needed in the future.

Nancy Colombo

Matthew R was such an amazing technician/gentleman…. He made the process so smooth and I felt completely comfortable with having him in my home. I just moved to Orlando Florida a few days ago, but quickly found out from my insurance agent that my water heater that worked perfectly fine. Was six months over what it should be in order to be insured. So I had to have a new water heater put in.. It was a little more than I expected Price wise, but I would do it all over again without a doubt… You get what you pay for and that’s what Matthew R provided!! This review is solely based on Matthew, his professionalism will definitely make me call back for any other services that I may need!!

Larry Britton

Matt have been professional and have shared people comments with fellowship with customers care and support of safety and security along with his work. I met a younger Gentleman/Brother. Take great care of Matt and support him as he reflects GREATNESS ON THE BEHALF OF THE COMPANY AND SERVES TO WE THE PEOPLE WHO APPRECIATE MATT AND THOSE WHO OPERATE THE SPIRIT AND SERVICE AS MATT HAVE: Have a BLESSED DAY 🙏🏾
