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!

James Duncanson

Our tech Ethan Tolliver was exceptional from start to finish. He didn’t just treat us like a customer he treated us like family. He was very knowledgeable and thorough in explaining the repairs needed. He made the whole process enjoyable. We look forward to working with Ethan and his company in the future if anything is needed. William Owens came out and replaced the power vent on our water heater. He knew his job of the repair very well. He was genuinely concerned about our lack of hot water and replaced the part in less than 30 minutes. We are very pleased by the overall service we have received so far. We had a new tankless water heater installed after the repair and the whole process was great from start to finish. Chris and Jordan were the two install techs on the tankless eater heater. They also extended our natural gas line so we could put a gas stove in. This is honestly the best experience we’ve ever had from a company. I would highly recommend them for your next service.

Jeremy was great! I needed to have all my pipes replaced, sewer, water and gas. It was a big and complex job. Jeremy arrived and explained all the details of the project.

I am so happy with the work that was performed and the great communication before, during and after the project. I highly recommend this company and their great team.

Kelly Guinn Bicht

Love this company, and Rad has always been the best when he’s come out for our plumbing issues. This time he came with Ryan and they were both awesome and professional, they had to get on the roof and even cleaned some of our gutters! They quote you honestly and stay true to it. They showed up earlier than expected (days). I strongly recommend this company due to its high quality customer service and the professionalism of their employees. It’s never a great time to have to call for a plumber, but it is nice to have a company who you can call that’s trustworthy.
