What water treatment pros on HeyAmigo can help with

Water treatment is one of the most marketing-driven trades in the home category — a salesperson can sell you a $7,000 "premium system" when a $1,500 system handles the actual problem. The water treatment pros on HeyAmigo start with a real water test (most pros include one in the diagnosis) and only spec equipment that addresses what the test shows. They handle whole-house filters (sediment, carbon, KDF), water softeners for hardness, reverse-osmosis at the kitchen sink for drinking water, UV treatment for bacterial contamination on well systems, neutralizers for low-pH water, and iron/manganese filters for the orange-staining problem common on rural wells. Tell us city water vs. well, any visible symptoms (staining, smell, hard-water scaling), and your last water test if you have one — quotes itemize equipment, install, and any plumbing changes.

Hiring a water treatment pro: what to know

A quick read so you know what to ask before you book.

When to hire a water treatment pro

Hard-water scaling on faucets, glasses, and shower doors. Soap doesn't lather. Water hardness over 7 GPG (grains per gallon) — softener fixes it.
Orange or brown staining in toilets, tubs, or laundry. Iron above 0.3 ppm or manganese above 0.05 ppm. Standard softeners can't handle this — needs a specific iron filter.
Sulfur (rotten egg) smell from hot water. Often a magnesium-rod issue in the water heater, sometimes a well issue. Pros diagnose before recommending equipment.
Well water tested positive for coliform or E. coli. UV treatment is the standard fix. Don't drink water until it's resolved.
City water that tastes/smells of chlorine or chemicals. Whole-house carbon filter or RO at the kitchen handles it.

How to choose the right water treatment pro

Demand a water test before any system spec. Pros test; the loose ones quote based on a sales pitch.
Match the system to the test. "Premium whole-home" systems often include features that don't address your actual water — pay for what you need.
Confirm sizing for softeners — measured in grain capacity, sized to hardness × household × days between regen.
Ask about salt-free "softeners" critically. They're conditioners, not softeners — they don't actually remove hardness, just change the scale form. Some homes are fine with them; some need real softening.
Verify warranty on tanks and electronics separately. Tanks 10–20 years; control valves usually 3–5; resin 10–15.

Frequently asked questions

How much does water treatment cost on HeyAmigo?
Under-sink RO: $350–$650. Whole-house filter: $600–$1,800. Water softener: $1,200–$2,500. Well water full setup: $3,500–$4,500. Diagnostic + water test $75–$200. Posting your job is free.
Do I need a water softener?
If your water tests over 7 GPG hardness, yes — softening pays back in soap savings, appliance lifespan, and skin/hair quality. Below 5 GPG, usually not worth it.
What's the difference between a softener and a filter?
Softeners remove calcium and magnesium (hardness) via ion exchange. Filters remove sediment, chlorine, iron, sulfur, and other contaminants via various media. Many homes need both, in sequence.
Are HeyAmigo water treatment pros licensed?
Yes. Every pro is verified for state license (where required — most states regulate water treatment installers), insurance, and identity before they can quote.
How often does the system need maintenance?
Softener: salt every 4–8 weeks, resin replacement every 10–15 years. RO: filter changes every 6–12 months, membrane every 2–3 years. Whole-house filter: cartridge every 3–6 months. UV: bulb every 12 months.
Will RO water be missing minerals?
Yes — RO removes most minerals along with contaminants. Some pros add a remineralization stage if you prefer mineral-rich drinking water; the health impact is debated and most diets get minerals from food.
Should I get my well water tested?
Annually for bacteria (coliform, E. coli) and nitrates. Every 3–5 years for full panel including metals, VOCs, and arsenic depending on region. Pros include testing in any well system diagnosis.
Is posting a job really free?
Yes. HeyAmigo is free for homeowners — no fees, no credit card. Pros pay HeyAmigo for the lead, not you.
